Re: OT: How often do regs spew?
I consider spew plays you make at a pot that based on the information provided had a very low percentage chance of success.
For example,
Three bet TT OOP
Get called
C-bet undercard flop
Get Called
Check / shove a turn bet that basically commited your opp.
At the time I did not stop and think before shoving the turn. Zomg, this guy is making a play at me... etc. Based on the size of his turn bet my shove was spew.
You must look at the information available to you at the time of your play. If you had good reason to believe the play would work it is not spew. Therefore, you should never spew.
IMO, The idea that a good aggresive player will spew every now and then is a cop out. You should make good decisions everytime, anything less is unacceptable.
My 2 cents.
