Default Re: amoeba stops being weak tight

havent read results yet, but i will tell u my experience. first, his move often times is the A and after u push he probably thinks he is committed with the nut draw. second, although i am guilty this, pushing draws in SSNL is practically worthless if not chip spewing. there are two major advantages to pushing a draw. One, it allows u to play a flopped monster much faster. Two, it gives the opponnent a chance to fold a hand u beat. The latter is a rare occurrence in SSNL. The former is moot b/c these cats arent paying attetnion to what u are doing, they are looking at thier hand and saying "i dus mayd twip queens on the tern der" or whatever. the point is the disadvantages outweigh the advantages IMO.

having said that i just lost 100 BB pushing top pair flush draw....yes i was a slight fav. to what i knew was AA, but he doesnt fold so why did i do that when i can either take the odds offered or wait for a spot where he will put the money in as a substantial dog. just my thoguts.
