Re: A fancy play I make against certian players. How stupid?

[ QUOTE ] Absolutely not! You're investing 5BB (3SB + 1SB + 1BB + 2BB) to win 4BB! If it only works 30% of the time, your EV is: (.3)(+4BB) + (.7)(-5BB) = 1.2BB - 3.5BB = -2.3BB In order for you to break even, he must fold 55% of the time! [/ QUOTE ]Oh crap. Thanks for setting me straight. The other poster said so and it didn't register. Yeah, now I see why this is a bad play. He may fold 30% of the time but not 55%. Thread over. [/ QUOTE ] Does he have to fold 55% of the time to make this a good play? Wouldn't that only be true if your only chance of winning the hand was to make him fold? J9 seems like a pretty good hand against a random hand. How about playing it preflop but only continuing on a favorable flop? If so, is a preflop raise or a complete better? On this hand you did not get a favorable flop. So check/fold looks good to me here. |

This player is a good hand reader, very agressive, and will put you to the test every hand. [/ QUOTE ] so why does he suck? (according to sthief) |

Isn't is possible to be too agressive?

(according to sthief) [/ QUOTE ] Because brick's assessment of this guy is wrong. He does suck and sthief is totally right. His hand is permanently attached to the bet/raise buttons. |

I often take very passive lines against him, and in this hand I'd probably check-call, check-call, check-fold. I don't think the river checkraise will show enough profit against him in the longrun, because he seems to pay me off frequently with pretty marginal hands. Rob |

whatever. I didn't say he was good. Maybe 'good hand reader' was too much credit, but I didn't say he was good.

Re: A fancy play I make against certian players. How stupid?
i don't get it, you're trying to bluff a loose maniac. what's even worse, he's not folding any pair or ace on the river, so you're spending 2 bets hoping he has (and folds) exactly Q high?
