Re: Some lessons are cheap.......

since were telling stories--playing live one night at the casino. We've got a medium sized pot going. I have a straight and the nuts. So at the river i'm heads up to the GENTLEMEN to my left. He calls my last bet and says "whatcha got"? I showed him the straight and then without even...

Re: Medium PP in LP

Pretty good stuff here guys. (The rest of this post has been either omitted or severely edited) WOW, I started to write a seemingly smooth flowing post about how I mostly agree, but then disagree with this and that, but then I went back and reread all your posts and realized how I am just way too hammered...

Re: Medium PP in LP

So much depends on the limit and if you have any info on the player raising. If I'm grinding low limit, playing 4 tables of 2-4 or 3-6, and against one raiser that I don't know to be particularly fishy or surprisingly decent, I will usually put in a 3rd bet with JJ and TT; 99 88 and 77 I'll...

Medium PP in LP

I wanted to bring up the topic of playing medium pocket pairs in late position. By medium I am referring to 88, 99, TT, maybe 77 or JJ. From what I see of a lot online is this: A player raises from some position in front of the player with the pair. The player with the pair will 3 bet his medium (or...

Some lessons are cheap.......

some not so cheap, and you pay with your pride. How I learned to keep my emotions in check at the table: 20 minutes before I sat at the 3/6 full kill HE table they hit the bad beat jackpot for $15K. Guy that took the beat got $9K and proceeded to get DRUNK. Raised and reraised every pot every street...

Kids, don't try this at home.

2 hands that show the excellent abilities of yours truly. I humbly submit the following: 10-20 live I'm dealt and make a friendly wage UTG+2, 1 caller, folds and BB calls. Flop I lead out, fold and 1 call. Heads up on the turn. I bet, get raised and reraise. Flat call. Ok, he's got A, Q. River...

Re: Some fun hands!

Playing a N/L tournament last nite and there is a nine high, diamond straight flush ON BOARD!! It's heads up and fortunately I'm out of the hand when the middle position players makes a small continuation bet, now you do this, just incase the other guy doesn't see it. Well the BB who is the...

Re: Some fun hands!

In limit poker, if 2 players go to the river heads up, the # of raises allowed is unlimited. I've seen this in an Omaha game where one person had quads and the other had a str8 flush. The game was 8/16 so it took a while for them to raise to get all in. Lady never did figure out she was beaten until...

Re: Set on 4-flush board.

Maybe raise???? Two may drop without clubs leaving you heads up with the original better, who you hope was bluffing. Would he drop? Doubtful, but if he was bluffing, your kings might now be good. Regardless, you still get your odds for the river and now you are adding a chance to win. Hmmm... OK, I change...

Re: Fun at 2-4 table.

They let him just 'go all in' even though it was limit? I understand that there is no cap heads up... but usually this isn't allowed. At least, when I was playing low limit at the Mirage they wouldn't let me. Also at the Bellagio. LINDA!!! Heads up on the river, in a limit game - both...
