Absolute Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
6 players
Absolute is a very loose room with lots of calling stations. I played earlier this year and last year at UB. The NL $50 level at Absolute is definitely weaker than the NL $25 level at UB and I guess at FT (but I never played there).
My question: I lead the flop always with flopped straights, sometimes I like to bet even more. This works very well. On the turn, what's your line on his minraise? I think calling is terrible, so I have the choice to fold or to shove.
