Am I a Pussy?

CIncyHR · #1 03-04-2005, 06:00 PM

Just moved up from .50/1 to 1/2 this week. Logged 1.5k hands, started a little slow only up .4/100, but I think I can turn it around. couple questions about hands where I may have missed a few bets

Hand 1- my thinking here is that once turn is a K and villain raises again, he could very well have AK. Any problems? Hes a 51/10.

Hand 1 - I think you have to 3 bet the turn. If capped, then you check call the river. If he just calls your 3 bet, i would lead out on the river.

Hand 2 - Sorry... I have to say it. Vagina city. You have to raise the turn. If 3 bet, I might give him credit for AA (but unlikely), but honestly I would still cap the turn. The river is a no brainer obviously.

Hand 1 - Depending on the player, slowing down is OK. But it's far from automatic.

Hand 2 - Terrible. I don't mean to be harsh, but you sacrified major value. Raise and cap the turn, no question.

Hand 1 looks fine.

Hand 2, the little girl in you came out. Raise that turn, if 3-bets, I cap, if he bets into you on the river then maybe you can just call.

Hand 1 doesn't seem so bad. You've shown tough aggression on the flop and turn, and then he still hits you with a stop n go. You can't really three bet because you'll want to vomit if he caps. Call down here is fine.

Hand 2, yes you are a pussy. The only hand you can possibly worry about is AA on the turn. You didn't really give any reads on the guy, but there are a lot of PF 3-bet hands that he could have including AK and KQ. That, and its 1/2, so he really could have almost anything. I would be willing to cap on the turn, then bet/call on the river if he still doesn't slow down. The river K is obviously a no brainer.

Yeah I think I should have put him on that set, MAYBE AK. But the flop checkriase should have given away that he didnt have AA. Oh well, I lost $6. Thats 2 less beers this weekend I guess.

Hand 1: Flawless.

Hand 2: You really need to get rid of the monsters under the bed and stop wearing the thong and skirt. Cap the ever bloddy turn, obviously cap the river. I cap every street there including the turn. If he has AA god bless him.

billy and bunky got it right.

Im burning my lingerie right now. Once it becomes a pile of ashes I will never just call with that again!

For Hand 2, yes. We'll call you Sandy.
