Default Complete Crazy LAA on .5/1 Party

Tables is Rags to Riches. I've got to go so I left the table, but I made about 50BB off him/her/it.

KO

Nicely played. Perfect example of why players like that are exactly what we want at the table even if they may catch a break once in awhile.

you realize your preflop calls, both of them, were horrendous, right?

I wanted to say something about this, but he seemed so proud of himself.

How you can call a raise in the sb with QTo is beyond me.

just think people should be careful labeling others as crazy LAA when their play is suspect, if not necessarily EQUALLY suspect. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

No, it wasn't as bad as it looked because the table had gone bonkers.

You did notice that CO CAPPED with J4s, right?

Perhaps I should have explained that CO was raising every hand pre-flop, usually check-raising the flop and raising it whenever he had a chance when the betting got to him. It was a pattern. I DID see him fold a few times, but I figured he kept going if he hit any kind of pair.

Hands CO had shown down the past few minutes were 84s, T8o, that sort of thing. He was getting incredibily lucky and hitting a lot of 2 pairs.

Since he was hitting a lot of pairs people started pushing back whenever they had pocket pairs, too.

Basically all the pre-flop raising had little or nothing to do with what people had in their hand. And I gave it that much credibility.

KO

No, you don't understand. He was like 96/85 over 20+ hands.

That right, raising 85% of his hands pre-flop over 20+ hands. And showing down with complete crap. His raises meant absolutely nothing about what he had in his hand.

KO
