Default Re: Short Handed Nano Hand

Here's another similar hand that just popped up.

SB is a typical calling station for these limits--27/0/1.10 or so, and nothing special.

MP1 is a [censored] moron. 91/8/1.04 after 100 or so hands, he's capped flops with ten high and called river bets with the second nut low. Yet somehow, he's made money at the table. This is why variance is your friend: sometimes it bites you in the ass, but it also keeps the worst players playing.

Final Pot: 32.50 BB

Comments appreciated, especially preflop--65s needs help from implied odds to profit, but with a loose nano table you think we can get away with this?

I think the flop 3-bet was okay given that MP2's raise could mean he has 9 high or whatever, but when SB caps it's likely he has a six, and I'm not ahead of most of those. I'm probably splitting with one of 'em on the river though, provided he hasn't got 6T [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
