Re: out 113
Yeah against me.
Thought I had to make a move as I'd just blown off nearly half my stack.
Good luck

Re: Top 10 10/20 6maxers (LC)
Glad to see I made it to the top 10.
Another of the players is a friend of mine and the author of a recent poker book.
And just a word on Brown Eyes. He has crappy stats (limping in all the...

Re: 10/20 players casual or pro?

Re: winrate on SH holdem
Hi guys
I don't have much time for the forum at the moment (hopefully in a few weeks time) but I can confirm I am still running around 4.1 BB/100 (110K hands) in the 10-20 game. I did reach 4.5 a...

Re: Momma Said Knock You Out
Easy raise considering how nobody else is really going for the pot.
And of course it is good to knock out hands like AK which have 10 outs on you not 6. In fact AK or AQ would be making serious...

Re: 10/20 - AQs
You should definitely bet the turn in a pot this size. If, as you say, SB is weak tight then he probably has big pockets judging by his pre flop action (do weak tighties cap just for the hell of...

Re: How bad?
Of course you can play this hand against bad players when you are on the button.
Here are my scores from the BTN with such hands
75s +0.45 (VPIP 26%)
76s +0.21 (54)
86s +0.07 (17)
87s ...

Re: Checkraising the flop with bottom pair.
I also think that your play, against this type of opponent, was all right except for the bet on the river.

I've forgotten what the blind structure is at 3/6. Is it 1-3? If so then I think you should fold pre flop. I think you want showdown value if you get it heads up against this player as I would hate...
