[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] As Mehta and Flynn point out . . . IMO the answer is folding preflop. I know Bill O'Conner would agree with me. As he says, "Consider the source." [/ QUOTE ] post needs more name dropping and/or authority-referencing for me to feel sure that it's valid. maybe throw in what sklansky would say? [/ QUOTE ] You got me. I play 10-20 PLH/5-10 PLO round of each with O'Conner and others you have head of like Carl McKelvey and Tommie Grimes et al. And I read the PNL book by Mehta and Flynn. These are some of my influences. So sue me. [/ QUOTE ] i've honestly never heard of mckelvey, grimes, or o'conner. not trying to flame you, just honestly am wondering who they are that you would think everybody's heard of them. |

[/ QUOTE ] Back in 2001, before the internet boom, long time pros O'Conner and McKelvey were voted among the top NLHE and PLHE live action players in the world. They aren't tournament jocks so it's no wonder you haven't heard of them. Think of them in terms of Bobby Hoff. http://www.cardplayer.com/author/article/all/10/6273 Grimes is in their class. Longtime pro but a bit more of a tournament jock. You can look up his results as E-Daddy on PokerStars. |

such an easy call considering p/f, the ONLY way you can call pre and make this fold post is if you specifically know that he will slowdown tons of the time after "making his move" pre, or he has some sick tell that you picked up on with his flop bet,
but from a mathematical standpoint, looking at the OP this is a turbocall, I mean if I was sitting at the table I'd probably take about 6-7 seconds to think of what to do preflop and then I instacall the flop, not cocky or anything, but it simply requires no thought on this good of a flop with the way this hand was played pre and the assumptions I can make about 99% of players. edit: oh and ur avatar is awesome |
