losing players complain about variance more than winning players even if they experience the same 'amount' of variance. agree/disagree?

I assume by "losing" players you mean marginal/breakeven players, and yes this is true (see Reef/Fgators).

lol aeslephve

sorry Im not a marginal/breakeven player, but believe what u want

Yeah that's such a wild fold, after all I have AA!

Now it's becoming blatantly obvious why you barely win at this game.

blindly following "theorems" is el-oh-el. I mean, come on... turn raise is not > TPTK all the time or even close.

also it was sb vs bb there

Better double check next time before you make yourself look stupid.

I have heard people say this so many times that I finally have to comment on it. This is not true. They are more likely to go through periods where they lose money; they do NOT have higher (more) variance.

meh. i think its pretty std all around. i mean your getting paid nearly always if you hit your [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] but you need me to have a pretty damn strong hand as well (which is generally not the case). i'm checking that river alot of the time with weaker aces and not sure if i'd even go for 3 streets with AK (though i probably should).

whats your plan if a blank river hits? i dont really like the thought of c/f-ing, but you really probably are. so i dont know.

anyhoo, thoughts on this hand at the other table? no reads...villan has miniraised once UTG and i called with K2s. i flopped 2 p on a K72 board and c/red him. he folded. other than that, no other hands.

Full Tilt Poker - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $0.75/$1.50 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $401.60
BB: $338.50
UTG: $295.50
Hero (MP): $320.05
CO: $113.80
BTN: $214.10

Preflop: Hero is dealt T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $5.25</font>, CO folds, BTN calls $5.25, SB folds, BB calls $3.75

Flop: ($16.50) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $15.00</font>, BTN calls $15.00, BB folds

Turn: ($46.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)

everyone who is going on and on about winrate crack me up .. u guys do realize that <font color="red">hourly &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; winrate </font> right?

and as pbjaxx said variance is only based on your standard deviation found in PT, which is directly correlated to the style u play.

its also a math problem. i think you are probably incorrect to call that turn based on the odds given and implied odds (even given a pretty tight range like sets/straights). i think that with stuff like AK, i would change my bet sizing a bit as well. (and not sure if you get my stack).

Yeah, I'm don't think I played it especially well. I just didn't like potting the river because I think you fold most one pair hands, so I was hoping you'd 3-barrel (which you probably don't do a lot but do sometimes) or had a monster.

About the KT hand, if he's a donk I probably just stick in. Generally I'm calling then evaluating.
