why would you raise the turn

call down you usually get an extra bet on the river if he's behind

And get outdrawn on the river and lose the whole pot?

if he's behind he's only folding a hand with 6 outs or less. so 1 time in 8 that you get outdrawn by just calling. but 7 of 8 time you still win, and at least half of the time he will fire a 3rd barrel as a bluff on the river, and if he doesn't you can value bet and make him call with a-high.

I think you shoudl post your ID so we can look at your skills. I would like to see how you kill the 5/10 while CC six gappers. I'm truly interested, and you can always change your ID.

cheers.

this is soooo easy to resolve.

Two options:
1. Post your PP ID (to allow people to objectively analyze your play) and change it immediately (so you can continue to be anonymous on PP)

or

2. You're troll and liar who should go away.

I think these two choices cover 100% of the reasonable options. If we don't see #1. Then obviously #2 is true.

QED

I played against someone named Alexthegreat at Party 5/10 a couple of months ago and he wasn't good at all. don't know if it's you. he/you was to my left and while he/you was a minor pain, he/you probably isn't half as good as you think you are


you're running good

If you play this way and crush the game then good for you. Why do you feel the need to post about it and defend yourself? Go make more money instead.

The guy is never going to let himself be placed under a microscope.

How about we just challenge him to explain himself? Tell us how you are managing to defy conventional wisdom and win with this "style"?

Most of my games are small games w/ some friends. I get such good odds that I probably see about 45% of flops. I think this is the only reasonable way to do it.
