Default Re: Why Oh why?: Or Lost My Nerve

Hi Yen,

Oh, yeah! Don't you just love how this game is unpredictable? Anyway, I do see your point, and at times you definitely have to make some gutsy moves to take a pot. But if you're going to do so, you need to put yourself in the shoes of your opponent, based on what you put him on, and see if he's liable to do what you intend for him to do. People often think alike, more than people know.

It was capped pf and flop right? So I can only assume there are some nice holdings out there. If you were in the shoes of AG, would you fold to two more bets AND you have trip jacks (you don't know about his house yet). Remember, he went through a cap pf and flop, and with the pot being huge, why would he fold?

Yen, I'm not knocking your aggressive play. I work on that every session myself. I just question the timing of this one. I would have folded the turn when it came two bets to me, but that's just me. Good luck.
