Re: How do you get through...
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] My new favorite move (courtesy of EMarkM) to counter stealing is to flat call the stealer's raise and fire out at any flop. As he says, it can feel just a tad uncomfortable when you've got 83o and the board is QJ7, but if the stealer misses the flop (which is usually the case), it can be pretty tough for him to call your bet. [/ QUOTE ] I used to like that until Sossman pointed out how weak that looks to a strong player (if you had a big hand why didn't you check raise?) Still good against a lot of players, but not against those damn tricky aggressive types. [/ QUOTE ] If the stealer has, say, QJo, and you flat-call his raise with garbage, is he going to call your 2/3-pot bet if the flop is K73? Or would he come over the top, hoping: a) you don't have KT, or b) will lay it down? I see your point, but for the $5 and $10 crowd, it's pretty good. |
