I dunno, you never take -ev or 0ev spots in your life?

sure, i do it often. usually not for high stakes though. you won't see me playing blackjack in a casino for $1000 a hand.

I've never seen Daryn take a -EV spot, and that includes him betting $100 on hard 8 for like half an hour. The guy just can't lose money.

how do you see it as only slightly -ev or even 0 ev though? i'm just going by your own assessment that you "don't really know what's going on in limit poker". if that assessment is true, you're losing a lot of money playing your average 4 handed 100/200 on stars.

[/ QUOTE ]Well I guess I should be more specific in my self-analysis. I USED to be a pretty solid winner at 5/10 6m before I transitioned to NL cash where I have become a demigod. Since then, I haven't played much limit. Since there was 1 pretty bad player and the other two weren't GREAT, I can't imagine I was very -EV. When I said I don't really know what's going on, I kinda meant I wasn't a proven winner at 15/30+ over 10s of thousands of hands, but I feel I have a decent grasp of the game.

onto results:
hand 1: he had Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and my gut during the hand was right (that I should fold this turn), but I was an idiot and called down anyways

hand 2: he pays off with AJo hi

hand 3: He had KQo. I'm really surprised people think K hi might pay off here, I guess I didn't bet because I felt pretty confident that AK hi wouldn't even pay off that river, but now that you guys say even K hi might pay off that river I feel like an idiot for not betting.

If you aren't opening on the button in a 4 handed game at that level you are definitely giving up way too much. I would definitely open with that hand there. You can not limp and folding feels wrong!

i'm not trying to be a dick like usual, i'm genuinely curious here:

why is a guy who admittedly has little idea what to do in limit poker playing shorthanded 100/200 on stars?

my theory is: young kid with too much money

[/ QUOTE ]


he asked for feedback on his hands, not his life.

really lame response. you're usually much sharper. you're wrong on this one - your "my theory, young kid with too much money" is preceeded by "not trying to be a dick" - just transparent and foolish.

Hand 1 I think you should fold to the flop raise.
Hand 2 is fine, although raising the flop is fine too.
Hand 3 I think the river is though, but I could be convinced either way.

Hand 1:
Once you call the turn you are committed to calling the end barring a spade coming. I think you have to call down here u/i.

Hand 2:
I think you played the hand well. Only hand Im worried about would be J's and I don't think he slows down with Jacks... possible but not likely in that game.

Hand 3:
Definitely need to bet on the end. He is certainly paying off with all A-high hands and probably some K-high hands. Definitely need to bet the end.
