Poker Quiz: how would you play these online/ Long*
In an effort to move on beyond the strident posting below, here is a "Quiz", if you will, that was presented to me by a very successful middle limit player , who also happened to be a prop and Pro player here in sunny Ca.
It is not so much a quiz that contains absolute right or wrong answers as it was his idea to get me to see what my general tendencies in certain situations were at the table. At that time (roughly 9-10 years ago) I had been playing for almost the same/ 9 years and I was not making much money.I was slightly above break-even. I asked for help... he gave me a little quiz and I found out some things that have helped me to be consistently profitable, way beyond what I expected since.My reading of players improved dramatically since looking at my own game. I will present some situations here .The answers should be simply, as an example: flop- bet/ turn-check-raise/ river-bet. There needs to be no explanation as to why. we all know that what you might do in a certain situation can change based on your opponents. But What I'm looking for is your general approach that you would take. Therefore there is no absolute right or wrong, but I will post what the gemeral tendency should be,based on what this player told me. the actual quiz that I was given is slightly different, but the lessons I learned will relate here as well. okay Maybe we will get some of the very successful online players here, to play, and we can all learn. anyway, again, please basic answers like , check/ raise flop, bet the turn, reraise if raised etc thanks It doesnt matter what you think of me, this is for your game, I'm not grading or going to make comments on anyones answers .i will simply relate the answer s and philosophy given to me. It helped my game, so maybe it will help some of you.Although I wont comment on other players answers I expect that you guys will. #1) You are in the big blind with 8-8. An early player limps, middle player limps, cut-off and button limp, small blindfolds, you get free ride. 5 players FLOP- Kd-8h--3c your'e first to act- You: 2) you are the Big Blind. Same exact scenario as #1. You get a free ride.5 players your hand is 7-k off suit Flop is Q-7-7 rainbow. you are first to act: 3)You limp from early posistion with 7-7. All fold to the button who raises, the small blind calls, big blind folds. 3 players. Flop-A-7-8 rainbow. The small blind bets- you: 4) You are in the small blind with k-10 suited middle player limps, all fold to you, you call .bb checks 3 players. FLOP- Q-4-7 Your first: 5)You limp in early posisition with K-Q offsuit.all fold to cutoff who raises. all others fold. you call 2 players. Flop J-4-4 you- This is enough for now. I hope you'll play |
