I :heart: my penith, and so do you!!! (NC Thread)

[bravos1]

Played 2/4 at FT last night... first time playing 2/4 in quite some time (4+ months) and I was astonished! My table after an hour was running at 40/5.5/.75. Tables have not been this good at the 1/2 I have been playing. I thought it was my great table selection skills, but I had 4 other tables open and they were all running this loose passive. On many, many occasions, it was 7-8 seeing a flop.

One guy was totally awesome!!! 89.81/1.27/0.32 in 157 hands! Yes, he raised twice in 157 hands. One of the hands he raised? A 3bet in BB w/ K5o against a MP raiser... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] He called down w/ any, and I mean ANY piece of the board and several times with Ace hi and got funky aggro w/ poor hands on the later streets. He called 4 bets cold in the CO w/ T8s once and cold called over 30 times in this one session!!

Of course, variance killed my good hands and I was pretty card dead, but I came back strong and finished up 3.5BB.

Some choice hands to illustrate the awesomeness of my new found buddy!!!:


He is MP3 in this hand...

DAMN!! Now that is passive!!!

So, I found a new favorite fish and a new good looking game.

Those of you playing 2/4 lately, has it been this nice for a while?

[Gib]

I've been considering going to FTP lately, do you play any of the 6max games there bravos?

[sean c]

Bravos,

The 2/4 games were especially juicy last night. Better than the .50/1.00 games.

I have been, off and on, at $1/$2. The games are very juicy IMO, but the full ring games have been even better as of late and I can 3-4 table 1/2 FR much better than fishmax.. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
