5/10NL @ Commerce, walking the weak-tight line...

[Kirkrrr]

Actors:
MP3 - rockish and very readable. Small bet on flop = nothing much, big bet = hit, check = totally nothing and doesnt' even want to bluff. He's got about 1000.
SB - nud-peddling nit, hasn't been caught bluffing. Lays down 56s on Button with deep stacks to a min-raise. About 1500.
I'm on Button and have them covered. On to the hand.

Fold to MP3 and he makes it 40. I call w/ K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], SB calls, all else fold.

Flop: 459r.
Check, check, I bet 75, SB makes it 150, MP3 folds,

Meh... since you can outplay him so easily after the flop, it's probably okay.

You're drawing at 5 outs, at best, and nearly dead if he's got a set. If he's a nit, you won't get paid when you hit your outs unless they're no good.

EZ FOLD.

Very easy fold.

Doesn't that answer your question?

I can think of 0 realistic hands you beat.

When did they add 5/10 NL at Commerce and how is it comparable to the 10/20 games?

The 5/10 is a $400 fixed buy game they added several months ago. Obviously it plays much, much smaller than the unrestricted buy 10/20.

I have a lot of trouble folding to the flop min-c/r, so I called.

Check, Check.

He bets 400. I call. He flips over the obvious 44 for the flopped set.

Now everybody point and laugh at the donkey. Anyhow, hope some of the lurkers pick up this thread and don't make the same mistake.
