Default Re: 2 tabling more profitable than 4 tabling? Line check.

what good hand would you ever play like you did hand 2? checking a drawy flop and then 3 betting a completely blank turn screams air to me and probably to any half decent opponent. i think that 3 bet will get called a lot by any pair.

Well, that also raises the question... what good hand checks the flop and then the turn as well. If he has a really good hand like a set is he going to check again on turn after i've already checked behind him on the flop? That would be too risky in my opinion. But since I have position on him I could definitely have a good hand. On flop if I hit a set, checking behind him on the flop could be a way to induce a bluff by him on the turn, but when he checks again on the turn thats when I would need to bet (if i had a good hand) and if he raises me, I would also reraise. I can see someone playing a good hand this way due to position, but cannot see someone playing a very strong hand the way he did OOP.

nothing wrong with identifying your strenghts... sometimes less is more.

I feel I do better playing on two seperate screens... helps me stay independently focused on each game.

Hand one is ok I guess, I can see how his line is fishy.

Hand 2 is horrible chip spewing.

Hand 1, I make real raise on flop (fold to reraise), check turn, play poker on river.

Hand 2, bet flop, then be done.

Well i'd never do this usually when 4 tabling, but I really felt he would fold to a reraise with garbage. Unless his hand was really strong I couldn't see him calling that raise or attempting to reraise again out of position like that. Seems that the general consensus though is that i'm wrong.

If you think he thinks your weak on the flop then bet and once he cr's you you can repop him. No need to give him a free turn.
