Re: Hand vs Sklansky
[ QUOTE ]
David has KK QQ or AA [/ QUOTE ] that's giving him way too much credit. I think Schneids has got it here, DS is threebetting with hands that have showdown value. Also interpretting Schneids internet-player-with-a-bankroll image factors in as well. I'd put DS on AK/AQ, 77-55 & TT |

[/ QUOTE ] what makes you say this? the top card pairing on the turn and schneids firing when it does would freeze an overpair IMHO. why not call down with a big pair here? IMO this kinda turned into a WA/WB situation. |

Re: Hand vs Sklansky
The obvious play is to never introduce yourself to sklansky (as a 2+2 reader/contributer/buyer of his books) regardless of whether or not you are playing in a game with him. Hard to believe a veteran of these boards wouldn't understand that.
As far as the hand, schneids played it in exactly the way I would expect sklansky to read his hand as an eight. I'm not saying I would have played it different but I doubt sklansky calls here with a worse hand very often. |

Re: Hand vs Sklansky
I'm about 95% confident you lost this hand. He's overly tight passive at limit hold em. I wouldn't even bet the river because with the J I don't see you getting called by A highs, though maaaaaybe AK.

Re: Hand vs Sklansky
id think sklansky doesn't need the hands you all think he does to 3 bet what he would see as the likely fish at the table when the fish (you schneider) opens from the CO.
im thinking AK-AJ/ATs/KQs/AA-77/maybe 66. flop is 98x, my line while talking to schneids was c'r the flop. if DS 3 bets check call the turn getting 7:1 w/ 5 outs. the problem as schneids pointed out was it kinda bloats the pot and puts money in if behind. id say if DS calls and an A falls he loses some money (not too much though obviously, as thats the exact situation he's written about). he may also call down thinking schneider could be agro w/ JTs/QJs. but i think OP's line may be the best here...id have c'red and i think that may be a mistake.

Re: Hand vs Sklansky
You shouldn't call the turn with (maybe) 5 outs getting 7:1. The only reason to call would be if you thought there was a significant chance you still have the best hand which vs. a Sklansky flop 3 bet and turn bet is about nil.
I think the check raise lead turn, or check raise call 3 bet check fold turn, or the actual line shneids took except he should check the river, are all good lines. |
