Check out Bellande eating. I say him eat about 3 entrees live one time. Very LAG.

Will try that right now, but this has been happening for over a week now. I shut down the PC every night.

Revolving Door! Everybody's job is to donk it up constantly but make sure to keep the World Donkey Title on Jesus anyway.

What are the blinds in this scenario?

No, my question is more about how do you get a feel for when you will have implied odds to make a call preflop with a low pair, when at that moment you don't have 7-1 odds. I imagine heads up it has to be worse to call than if there are 3 others in. Say there is an open raise for $50, and two others limp: pot is now 150 + blinds so say 165. Its 50 to call. Right now you are only getting 3-1 ish. Is that an auto muck with say 44 or do you just know you will have implied odds to make the call?

Bart, which ho ho hold em toury event comes with a $200 hat?

[cwsiggy]

I don't know - say $5 and $10 blinds. so pot is $165
My question is prolly more heads up situation cause with three others in - you'll prolly get 7-1 implied by the river if you hit the set.

Getting 3:1 or better (3 or more players in the pot) I will pretty much call any PP for a 3-4x the BB raise. This is my rule, it's not gospel...position plays a large part, If UTG opens for 4xBB I don't know if I call with something like 55 in UTG+1 b/c button might wake up with AA or KK and reraise so I would have to muck.

If it is open raised and reraised in front of me, I will muck all pp's lower than 10s in most cases.


If only short stacks are playing, I might also not call b/c their stacks are so small I might only get paid a little if I hit a set.

hope that answers some of it

No...if I do not flop a set I am out when overs fall...that is the luxury of calling the raise preflop and hitting nothing after the flop...you can get away from it.

A hand like 44 with tons of odds is not worth it since like 5% of the time you'll hit post flop, it's extremely -EV to play to the river with a low PP and a high board.

Interesting, so you just assume that a reraise after a raise is just too strong to call with anything below 10's. Isn't a set a set?? Just as powerful if you hit it. Or does the reraise generally price the implied out? If that makes sense.
