Playing UTG Loosely

I'm sure this idea is moronic, but it's been on my mind for a little while, so let me know what you think about the idea.

To raise UTG, you have to have a monster.
To limp UTG, it looks like a...

Re: Your call?

I'd probably have a problem with this if I were at the table. We have a guy who grabs an entire stack and drops the bottom couple of chips. I think he's guaging his opponent's response while...

Re: Home game busted by thieves

So sending out a weekly email to 10-15 people with address and directions is bad?

Re: Posting blinds OOP

It depends on what you want your table image to be.

If you want to be seen as someone who is a loose, impatient player - you post. If you want to be seen as someone who is a tight, patient...

Re: Go with my read or pick a better spot?

You have to fold.

You have to put your opponent on a club here. That being said, you are probably ahead here, but there's no sense in pushing with second pair, weak kicker, and no club-draw. ...

Re: Commentating Penalty

Shouldn't it be a penalty if someone says something to try to influence to outcome of a hand? Like "He's Bluffing!"

Commentating Penalty

We have a problem with people in our Home Tourney who think they need to commentate the hand. They say stuff like:

"Q9 looks good."
"Be nice to have QJ."

It irritates the crap out of me, and...

Re: home tourney question

If you're playing in a more serious tourney, they'll let the players finish the hand. Then the guy who exposed his cards will be assessed a 10 minute penalty.

Re: Would you call??

I understand your play. He checked & called the flop and turn. Once he checked the river, I would have suspected something was up. I probably would have checked the river behind him.

Re: hold \'em or fold \'em

You called the Flop bet, thinking your hand was good.
If you thought your hand was good, you had to call the turn bet.

Personally, I'd dump it after the flop.

Oh and by the way, seven outs...

Blind Stealing in Tournaments

Blind stealing is one of the leaks in my game, and I understand that it's an integral part of tournaments. I play in a game with a few TAGs and a bunch of LAGs and LPs. I need your help.

Re: What are the odds on this: 3 sets and a str8 on the flop.

I've seen a similar hand in a live tourney at the Trop in AC that I eventually won. 12 left in tourney, so we're playing 6-handed.

Pre-flop:
UTG (which is me) has 66 and raises
SB has 22 and...

Re: table talk ethics

In the OP's 3rd situation, suppose 1st player leads out and 2nd player says, "I know you're bluffing! Someone has to call that." Then he folds.

Is that ethical?

Re: (Home Game) How to play a short stack against weak players ??

Great post!!!

I run into this situation all too often. As you do, I feel as if I'm playing with weaker players who play way too loose. If I push pre-flop all in for 8BB with 66, because I know...

Re: New user: Basic Math Question

You're still making it harder than it needs to be.

Suppose you look at your first card. There are 3 more like it out of the 51 unseen cards. Which means, 48 of them won't make a pair. 48:3 is...

Re: How should this have been played?

To the OP,
I don't think you did too much wrong. If anything, I would have semi-bluffed all-in on the flop. He would have called and I would have lost. The same result would have happened, but...

Re: Tourney Blind/Chip Help...

We play every Wednesday night, and we start with T2000. Our blind structure is similar with the addition of the 75-150 level. It works out well, but you'll never get 3-4 hours out of it - ours last...

Re: Blind Structure For Home Tourney

You're making this much too difficult. Just start with T4000 in chips with blinds increasing every 20 minutes (maybe 30).
