so i've life tilted and went back to play some more. if i had read this hand correctly, i would have had a new BR record. i went back and owned some newbs to make myself feel better. BR record squashed. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

who likes this check on the turn with the nuts? i think i should have raised him on the turn though, at the same time, i dont want to scare him away and hopefully he can suck out to his flush or whatever he is chasing. how about river bet, big enough? i figured board was scary enough that villian wasnt calling the river but he snap called so perhaps i should have bet more.

Way to control the size of the pot when you want it to get out of control. At least CR the turn. This is a blind battle so he is he isn't folding his precious ace/flush draw/8.

yea, im angry with myself. however, i wasnt getting any action all night so i was trying to give the villians a chance now and again. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

finally back at 10nl. I am pretty happy with my game at 10nl. Everytime i took shots at 25nl i played a bit scared money. In a month or two i have to try it again.

Dude, when you are not getting action, EXPLOIT IT! If your villains are making a mistake by not calling/betting enough, you don't want to make them call/bet more and actually move them closer to a correct play, but engrave their mistakes even more by getting them to call/bet EVEN LESS, i.e.: steal their [censored] blinds all the [censored] time and get away from it when they take a stand. Don't make them play good against you by trying to induce stuff. You only want to induce a bluff by a player who is already prone to bluff too much. Otherwise you get the timid player to make a good play against you.
