Default Re: $2/$5 NL ($300 max) hand at Turning Stone vs. 2+2er

Snow, I'm not trying to nitpick here, but why, o why, were you opening the first 2 hands for $13 to begin with? Even if you were raising with implied stuff, why not try to make it look like a real hand?

Because I'm crazy. That's the only explanation I have. Seriously.

I think it may be partly because I like to get it heads up if I can, or 3 handed to the flop. All the strong players at the table were to my right, so I wasn't really worried about going into pots with the other people at the table. I think in live play I get bored, so I do it to entertain myself. I hope making making raises each time, even though they are small, will make people think I'm a crazy player, just because of the fact I'm raising all the time.

looks fine, you only beat AQ or a "bluff" (KK, QQ, 99..)

They will make some people think you're a crazy player and it will, in essence, buy you some implied odds...all of which is well worth the price in a deep money live game. I guess I always take the attitude that I'm going to make it at least 3xBB with my good and "bad" openers so that I can raise the appropriate amount with my good hands.
