1.75BB? If SB folds, arent you getting 1.5SB (including your own) = 0.75BB?

Sitting with several live ones playing crazy and having fun, and some expert decides to table coach them back into line. "OH MY GOD YOU ACTUALLY RAISED A9o UTG+1?!?!!? KEEP PLAYING LIKE THAT PLEASE I NEED YOU TO PAY FOR MY EDUCATION JUST STAY AT THE TABLE" Some dude was actually recommending 2+2 and SSH to people at the PP 2/4 game a few weeks ago. "OH JEEZ THE 2+2ERS ARE GONNA LOVE YOU WHEN I POST UP THIS HAND FOR REVIEW LOL. 96s FOR THREE BETS? READ SSH AND YOU WON'T LOSE ALL THE TIME, FISH."

I just want to slip through the internet and murder all table coaches.

99.9% of the time I agree w/you, and I never say anything to the fishes. But last night, I broke my own rule. Party .5/1, over about 3 hours. Some clueless guy with 97/20 preflop lost over $125 buck (at least I counted 4 reloads, it may have been more.

Once the table figured him out, EVERY hand he was in preflop was raised. And he simply would NOT fold with anything. I won at least 25BBs from him over 2 hours. I started feeling sorry for him.

Finally I messaged, "you don't need to play every hand you know. Might I suggest a book on hold'em?"

Of course he gave me a f*uck off. So I stayed another hour and took another 15BBs from him [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Having a guy "back" into a winning hand. 88 making an inside straight on the river against KK.

Two from me...

capped betting preflop with KK

Flop xxA

Or getting a hand you pretty much have to play to the river because of pot odds but you're almost certain you are beat

88, flop is 28T, tons of action huge pot builds.
turn 9, huge action, bigger pot.
river T, more action, etc.

You open raise the SB for the steal, Mr. Donky McDonk in the BB calls. Bet, call. Bet, call. Hit nothing as usual, check, bet, fold.
