A Lot of Fun Until Your Friends Find Out...
My friends and I have saying about playing KTo... it's like riding a moped, a lot of fun until your friends find out. (There's also a more vulgar version...)
Everyone's Second Favorite Live 10/20 game with a half kill 9-handed Table is standard mix of one or two good players (including a pretty strong higher limit pro two to my left and a player I think is a 2+2er on the other end of the table, though he may not have sat down by this hand), a bunch of tight-weakish and SLA early-TP late players, and some poor players. I'm in UTG+1, and have just won a big pot so I'm posting a $15 kill blind. UTG is relatively unknown to me at this point. Has done nothing out of the ordinary. Probably on the tight-weakish side. UTG+2 is a dealer who has also done little out of the ordinary. Seems to play fairly straightforwardly after the flop. To the left of UTG+2 is a pro who plays pretty well, and then a collection of some looser players. I welcome discussion of every street, because I think only one of them is totally obvious. Feel free to talk about why I really should have folded pre-flop, or whatever... I am dealt K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. UTG raises , Deranged calls (completing the kill bet, so I am calling only $15 and not $30), "The Dealer" (UTG + 2) calls, two other loose players call behind, blinds fold. 5 to the flop Flop (11 SB): 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] UTG bets, Deranged raises (let the flaming begin!!!), "The Dealer" three-bets, two LP players fold, UTG folds, Deranged calls. 2 to the turn Turn (9 BB): 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Deranged checks, "The Dealer" bets, Deranged calls. River (11 BB): K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Deranged bets... The reaction that I was given by the players at the table after the hand was absolutely priceless. |

[/ QUOTE ] LOL... no, the vulgar version is "like riding a moped". Anything else can clearly only be compared transitively to.. err... the vulgar version. |

Re: A Lot of Fun Until Your Friends Find Out...
I guess you are comfortable with the preflop - I'm not. Especially not with the plan of stealing postflop.
I'm not sure what you are trying to do. As UTG, I would expect many aggressive kill callers to play back on this flop and would 3-bet a good A-high for value, which I think occured in the hand. This is also why I don't think a good player bluff-raises this ragged flop - zero fold equity, and not worth a free card. So on the turn you have 6 outs to hands that might be 2nd best anyway. I don't think board-pairing cards are legitimate outs, unless you are sure Villain will not bluff them. I don't want to call, because I can't showdown UI, but 10:1 rocks. On the river, you hit your best card and should bet for value. I like this street. BTW: what's going on with your position postflop? This is just an error, or your kill structure? |

I'm not comfortable with pre-flop. I think I should have folded. I'd play the rest of the hand the same.
I don't want to bias responses, but I will say that what I did on the rest of the hand is for very different reasons than I think you think I did. |

And here I was thinking this was a heads-up pot on the flop [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Damn it, Hobie. Now that I know you've read my post I fully expect you to come up with some constructive insults about how I'm a giant lag.
Then again, I bet you play this hand the same. |
