I dunno, you never take -ev or 0ev spots in your life?

sure, i do it often. usually not for high stakes though. you won't see me playing blackjack in a casino for $1000 a hand.

how do you see it as only slightly -ev or even 0 ev though? i'm just going by your own assessment that you "don't really know what's going on in limit poker". if that assessment is true, you're losing a lot of money playing your average 4 handed 100/200 on stars.

I personally dont really know what is going on in limit as well... and would guess that in your avg 4 handed 1/2 game on stars i might be as much as -3bb/hr. However if i choose adequate games i can probably be ~0EV, and slowly learn more n more. Also the games can be entertaining. Although i do generally play 30/60 to "learn" instead of 1/2.

really lame response. you're usually much sharper. you're wrong on this one - your "my theory, young kid with too much money" is preceeded by "not trying to be a dick" - just transparent and foolish.

Hand 1 you should probably fold to the flop check raise, turn is a super easy muck.

I like raising the turn in hand 2 for a free showdown. A lot of people like to make super thin value bets, but the point is, i really don't know that he is calling this river with a 77, 88 or ace high type hand. TT, JJ, or a queen are more than possible here.

Hand 3 is fine.

Hand 1 I think you should fold to the flop raise.
Hand 2 is fine, although raising the flop is fine too.
Hand 3 I think the river is though, but I could be convinced either way.

I've never seen Daryn take a -EV spot, and that includes him betting $100 on hard 8 for like half an hour. The guy just can't lose money.

Hand 1:
Once you call the turn you are committed to calling the end barring a spade coming. I think you have to call down here u/i.

Hand 2:
I think you played the hand well. Only hand Im worried about would be J's and I don't think he slows down with Jacks... possible but not likely in that game.

Hand 3:
Definitely need to bet on the end. He is certainly paying off with all A-high hands and probably some K-high hands. Definitely need to bet the end.

If you aren't opening on the button in a 4 handed game at that level you are definitely giving up way too much. I would definitely open with that hand there. You can not limp and folding feels wrong!

The board is T4567. The flush draw got there. Even if he has KQ, the only hands he beats are KJ, K9, K2, QJ, Q9, Q2, J9, and J2. I don't think K high is calling on the end.
