Attempt to isolate with ...junk (3/6)

[ QUOTE ]
Let me say first that I like to experiment with different plays and im sorry I had to reveal the result.

Preflop: My position is great loose player on the right - super tight on the right. I raise against a random hand and I expect to take advantage of MP being weak and predictable post flop

Postflop: I am not sure but I think I get good odds to steal against a rock in both streets. He either has an ace overcard or not. It's unlikely he has a 6 and he is likely folding a low PP. What I hold is not important as my purpose is to push him off and not to go to SD. I would give up on the turn if it wasnt J,A and 4 or 6.

Just going through my thought process at the time and not trying to prove I was right. (Obviously I was [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] )

Preflop: you have a hand that is worse than a random hand, and even in the likely event that you will knock out the tight BB, you are OOP against a moron who will likely call you down with anything.

PostFlop: the guy is vpip=70, but now you are calling him a rock. wtf? your thought process has me utterly confused.

When BB calls pf that is the last $ i put in w/out a real hand. Our isolation didn't happen and you're just wasting money. Also, judging by your rude response you seem to be in a pretty bad mood- dwindling BR due to plays like these the cause?

This is your first poker related reply to my posts so please keep it on. As for being in a bad mood b/c of losing:

You have matured past a stage that many of us still struggle with.

You are no longer results oriented. Congratulations!1

Awesome! We can now coin a new phrase....

Reverse Isolation (ree-vers)(i-sol-a-shun) - raising with a weak holding for the intent of getting heads up with a better hand.

As sarcastic as this post is, it really puts the debate in perspective, doesn't it?

Some of the most popular posts are regarding "Internet poker is rigged" and "No one can beat the low-limit chasers". I wonder why that is...

If he's tight, he probably didn't call you with nothing on the flop. He's probably got either a decent hand or draw and usually isn't going anywhere.

Also, the isolation is retarded. You're out of position with a hand with little showdown value &amp; trying to get it HU against a loose passive player. PLease tell me you don't do this very often.
