Donked off half my stack with another ill-advised blind steal attempt + pot odds (Q5s this time), but got some back with still another ill advised blind steal attempt (T7o) vs. a short stack. t2705 at the second break, still on 7.

Damn, didn't see that Matt Hilger was playing til he went out. Would've liked to watch some of his hands.

[/ QUOTE ] Wasn't sure if that was THE Matt Hilger, as it says he's from Rochester (I thought he was from Atlanta). Anyway, sat with him a long time. Must have been card dead, because he didn't do much. I won a decent pot from him with my AT v his A9. -Z |

Out in 174, JJ loses to AT. Shoulda called for pot odds with my T9s a few hands earlier, but 20/20 hindsight & all.

[/ QUOTE ] Well, I'm not sure you should'a opened the pot with T9 under the gun, dude. :/ Anyway, you had a couple of nice plays. You say you mostly play limit, right? Have you played much NL before? -Z |

Have you played much NL before? -Z [/ QUOTE ] I opened with T9s because first, the table was pretty tight, and second, I was short-stacked & wanted to play a little more aggressively tonight, hopefully building up a big enough stack to make it a little deeper into the money. That said, the pot odds were there & I should've called after the all in & overcall, but the guy that called the allin was tight as hell & I figured I was up against a high pair there. I've played maybe 50 smaller MTTs over the past year, + around 100 or so SNGs. Tack on a couple thousand cash ring hands donking around in the 25 & 50 NL tables, and that's it. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I still make my share of mistakes, but I feel like I understand the thoery behind the NL game fairly well...I just need to get some experience & work on fine-tuning my aggression, I think. Ah well, two moneys in a row & it really would've been beginner's luck. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |
