Re: HU hand
Time to respond without looking at the other replies first.
Alright preflop I have no problem with the call. You're getting 3-1, have position for the remainder of the hand, and have a decent hand. What kind of hands does he raise with preflop do you think? Only an ace? Some opponents will try to steal with a lot of hands if you complete from the button (and rightly so, to everyone reading). If it's only an ace though, you're in trouble. Still, getting 5-1 on the flop is pretty tough to get away from. When you call the flop, you have to call the turn, since he could be desperation betting his KJo, and you're getting 2.3-1.. This hand is entirely dependant on read. If you think he'll only raise and then CB an ace, you have to dump it on the flop. Realize that when you call on the flop you've decided he probably doesn't have an ace, and thus are going to have to call his stack on the turn. So really, imo you're the only one that can say what the proper line is here...sometimes I fold quickly, sometimes I call quickly...in a vacuum I probably fold. |

Re: HU hand
Theres no bigger issue, anyone who doesnt move allin here preflop is completely insane. This is not a minor point. Calling preflop from the SB is flat out terrible. The HH looks weird so maybe I got the action wrong, but if thats what happened, the rest of the hand is irrelvant because the preflop play is so bad.

[/ QUOTE ] Well to post a hand asking a question about one thing, when BY FAR the most glaring error of the hand is another thing, you should try to actually focus on the part of the hand that was clearly played badly, instead of worrying about some random postflop crap that shouldnt have happened anyway. |

When you say "some people here actually play poker", what you are actually saying is "some people here play badly". You can continue to be manly and mix up your play and "take flops", I'll continue to take my immediate minimum of $9 in EV in a single hand. The way you talk youd figure you make $150 per tourney to pass up such an edge. |
