Oh my god hurl...

I remember taking that a while back, and getting frustrated by it because I couldn't score well.

Now I just realize he's wrong about a whole lot.

Thinks he advocates:

1. Folding AKs out of the SB to a pro. UTG open-raiser.

2. Folding JJ pre-flop to an EP raise and a cold-call.

3. Not-raising a rivered nut flush with a bet in front of you and 3 players left to act behind you.

4. Not three-betting AdKd on a JdTdx flop (he REALLY doesn't understand the math of that situation... not three-betting there is a big error in my opinion).


The quiz is crap. Don't pay any attention to it.

Deranged, I agree with all your points except #3. With the nut flush on the river and 3 people to act after us, I actually think the hero will make more money in the long run by just calling and going for overcalls. The reason I say this is becuz the river was such a great card, being the 9h on a T8xx board. Which means there will be more calling hands than usual, but they may not be hands than can coldcall two BB's on the river. Another thing I like about just calling on the river is that there will be times that it will get raised behind by either a straight or a lower flush and then we can 3 bet it.

If however I am in the type of game with really bad players that will still cold call 2bets with the same hands they wouldve called for 1 bet, then I would raise the river.

Overall though, I think this is a terrible quiz, and I feel very secure inside knowing that someone like Rolf can still beat this game even with all this flawed knowledge.
