Re: Curtains: pick off a PVS?
[ QUOTE ]
PVS: Forum jargon named after poster “Phil Van Sexton”: a play in which a player attempts to steal the dead chips in a pot caused by limping or a raise and a few callers all believed to be weak. Usually this is done when the dead chips in the pot are a significant percentage of the player’s stack, and is only really a PVS when done with junk cards. [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: Curtains: pick off a PVS?
Say you limped like Curtains did. You would have then called the push, correct?
BTW, thank you for your old level 3 and 4 posts. When I read them, it was like someone turned the SNG light on for me. |

Re: Curtains: pick off a PVS?
Ty.
I love this PVS play though I usually have samo kind of a hand when I do it so maybe it doesn't qualify as a pure PVS play. Usually it's something like blinds 50-100, 3 limpers to me in the BB and I go allin with 66. It works rather well. |

[/ QUOTE ] If curtains were awake, he'd probably point out that a "true PVS" isn't necessarily a profitable play. I made that post about owning limpers in the 30s from the BB when I have a small stack. After that, things got a bit carried away. If Curtains and another player limped in front me in a 215, pushing with junk is "true", but awful. On the othe hand, if the BB had 66, pushing would be a no-brainer. |

Re: Curtains: pick off a PVS?
Yeah BB vs. having others to act behind is a big factor, so as always is whether the game is 33, 55, 215 ...
This post just caught my eye because I have bought quite a few pots with this move lately and had the thought that maybe I should be doing this with total trash sometimes. If they fold anyway it makes no difference right? This is from recent play in the 55's. That said, of course they don't always all fold so pulling this with trash is dangerous and the move should come with a warning on the label - don't try this at home kids. |

Would folding be terrible?
