Re: \"Playing\" a friend.
[ QUOTE ]
If I'm in a game with my friend, we will always check it down if we're heads-up (we'd rather take everyone else's money not each others). [/ QUOTE ] So i guess it's a team game for you? Fantastic. How about if everyone only would bet if only you were in the hand, but stopped if you were out. I guess that would be just as fair. b

Re: \"Playing\" a friend.
Dear iash [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
Pummel the hell out of your friends, or don't play against them in a casino, or even at home. You should play your friends MORE aggressively than normal! I have played against Clarkmeister (and others) and trust me, we HAMMER THE HELL out of each other at every opportunity, sometimes posting about it later. Clark totally pummelled me on a 10-20 hand a few years ago, it had NO effect on how either of us felt after the hand. (Except me. My ass was kinda sore since he had won a rather large pot from me! The bastard! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) My guess is that you folded JJ preflop incorrectly. Since your buddy lost anyway, don't you feel stupid now? al

Re: \"Playing\" a friend.
It really frustrates me when i see buddies going easy on eachother. It pissed me off most when i folded a pocket pair to what would have been runner runner quads. Lots of action preflop. Lots of action on the flop. Then heads up, checked down. This was only two buddies. Imagine if three friends were at a table. The action at the table would surely die. I think its bad form to take it easy on any player for any reason. If one doesnt like taking one's buddies money, or he doesnt like having his money taken, i think they should find seperate tables,

Yes my buddy lost a few stacks of red chips, and i totally felt like a moron. A few days ago I told my friend to suck it up and deal. If he can't handle losing chips to me, then he should play at another table. We plan on going to foxwoods in a few weeks, and he is aware I'm going to play him as tough as I would anyone else...what was the word you used, Al? Pummel pummel pummel.... Where do you play? -iash

Re: \"Playing\" a friend.
If your friend is not comfortable with playing against you, then you shouldn't be playing with him at the same table.
In the rare event that I am playing poker with a friend, I let him know that if he either a) whines about me betting/raising into him or b) softplays me, I will change tables and not play with him again. Here in Florida it's $2 limit anyway. If a friend can't deal with losing a chump change buy-in, I don't want to play with him.
