Default Re: Hand from Cappalletti\'s book


I think that’s a reasonable line to take against certain opponents in certain situations, but its by no means standard and best.

Keep in mind that Cappelletti’s goal is not demonstrating to a new player the correct/basic way of playing hand. He is trying to make things a bit interesting since it was originally an article, so he’s highlighting somewhat unusual semi-non-standard play.

The value in reading it is seeing how a decent player thinks. I’d think of it as a weaker version of MiddleLimit Holdem by Ciaffone – pay attention to the analysis and what he’s thinking about and why, but ignore what conclusions or actual plays he made.
