Re: LO8 Give me a better line

preflop i would always play KKds when sidecards are not horrible.

flop call is fine so is raise. if low had come on turn instead then the preflop raise won't put you on hand like KK and you...

Re: Wraparound draw LO8 .5/1

Great stuff.

But I think in practice the 3456 will be less bet-able and win less money.

but it did better than i would have expected.

Re: Nice draw, big multiway pot = push? $100 PLO8

donks won't fold the nutflush draw or nutlow draws here, that's what makes them donks.

Re: PLO8 Another A A hand

Obviously, it depends on your opponents, but in general playing the way you suggest is not optimal against most.

This is a hand you want to play in late position. I'd call UTG but it's not worth a raise. You'll win smaller pots and lose bigger ones due to playing in a weak position.

Re: Harrington style situation

fold. losing puts you close to 3-4xbb and pushes you into dangerously low fold equity zone. chip and $ev start to diverge more now.

Re: Reckless? or a good push? PLO8

Re: all in or stop and go?

I'm all in here. TT is too big a hand to stopngo and lets him get away too cheaply from a wide range of hands that would call here, including lower pairs, lower connectors, Qx/Kx/Ax where x is lower...

Re: NL200 Flush push

I prefer check-raising here, for a bunch of reasons.

1. your fold equity if raised is much smaller due to stack size
2. it avoids the scenario where you are called, miss turn and have tough...

Re: I resemble that remark

No, your post is flat out wrong. The blind size has nothing to do with this.

You need to compare the winrates and equivalize them. Then compare the variance you’ll get in achieving that winrate....

Re: $50 PLO8 hand

what is your plan on the turn if a non-low, non-club hits (i.e most of the deck), esp. since most sane people with the nut straight and no redraws here are not going to war on that flop?

I translated Jason’s comment as “Your thought processes on this hand should be weighing the merits of fold vs. call, with a bias toward fold. And if they are not, then you need to get smarter if you...

Re: Flop nut straight...played right?

I’d have raised the flop 100% of the time here. You want to get all the money in and the chances of that happening are better if you build the pot. You also want someone with A2,54 or 33 to play...

Re: Variance in different forms of poker

It seems like what you really want to measure is the ratio of your winrate to your “swinginess”. Or winrate/100 hands divided by standard deviation (or maybe variance).
And NL is almost certainly...

Re: Chase the low draw?

So what is the conclusion then –how much of a mistake is chasing here, and what odds does Hero need to make chasing correct?

Nitpick – win half 13%, win a quarter 9% -- that seems awfully high,...
