SSNL [cheese] thread: APRIL 2007 Pt 2(nc)

[Imrahil]

I'm being results oriented but does anyone not 5bet all in here? Villain is like 14/10 and pretty aggro. I thought about calling but I didn't think anybody would 4bet fold and I was very paranoid about the flop coming with an A or Q on it and crapping my pants.

Hey, short time lurker now poster

imrahil without reads I think you should be going all the way for 100BB's with KK everytime

just general question 100BB deep is there a point to 4 betting but not going AI? how about at 150? 200?

Like, (assume you decide not to trap)
HERO [AcAs]
Hero raises to 4 (.5/1)
villian raises to 15
hero raises to 45 or just AI?? is there a point to raising to 45, say if you have AK, AQs, KK, QQ, JJ, ? what if hes 3 betting light, what if he doesn't 3 bet light but you have AA/KK? discuss

Well, it is a convenient size that you're left with a PSB for the flop, but it's completely retarded of him to make the four bet then fold to a five bet. It's hard to imagine he'd do it with any kind of real hand, so it's also hard to imagine him paying you off on the flop unless he hit it hard, so you are better off pushing right now.

I came to the realization tonight that I'm just a really strange person.

I'm such a strange person that it's hard for me to hide my strange qualities when around normal people.

And people tend to pick up on the strangeness. So I either get "you're really interesting"
Or "You're really weird"
Or "You're really creepy"
from about everyone I meet within the first 5 minutes.

suggestions?

Yes, it means you can play back at people who three bet light without spending your stack on it when you're wrong. I quite often make small four bets, but it's a pretty contentious question on this forum...

For any particular reason? I hope you know why people do this, because none of us are likely to know, you seem perfectly normal here. Well, except for the constant girl posts, and that's not something that makes you weird or creepy.

Being quirky is one thing, but being called weird or creepy carry much more negative connotations. Seems to me that you have to know why, then you can fix it, if you want to.

Socialize: Get out of the house more often. Meet random people talk to people. Carry yourself with confidence, work out.

If you know that people are going to notice yoru strangeness right off then your first goal upon starting a conversation is to make them comfortable. Maybe a joke or maybe you go out of your way to act 'normal' (whatever that means).

FWIW, you sound normal across the tubes of the Interwebs.
