Re: Kick Ass No-Limit Holdem
Wow! Maybe, this underbetting thing is very common knowledge afterall. I've played with a guy named O'Neil Longson. I've also played with Devilfish Ulliot. And a guy named "Sahid" in small tournaments. And I've seen Gus Hansen on TV. They all do this sort of thing all the time. They'd bet small and bet small, and win a lot of pots. Then someone gets somehow annoyed and starts raising them to counter their play, and they fold. The thing is sometimes O'Neil will have a big hand, make a reraise, and the other person gives him action. O'Neil did this to me in a multi-table satellite and broke me. Sometimes he'd get lucky and flop something big. Breaking someone with a 34 offsuit in the process. I saw him do this to a guy who had KK and he drew out on him. You left out a huge chunk out of the Kick Ass excerpt though. I've heard two guys, one named George Huber the other called "Popeye", talk about this underbetting tactic too.
Ray Zee should write a no-limit holdem book! It'd be a shame if he didn't.
