Re: I feign weakness...oh wait
 

Last night. 8/16 hand. Old man on my imm left has been playing any two cards just as long as they were somewhat rectangular in shape. I open UTG with AKs, ole man calls, someone 3's, I cap. 5-6 to the flop of AK5. Checked to me and I lead the whole way, old man calls me down the whole way. Showdown I table my top 2, put a chip on the cards as a tip and start sliding them to the dealer before ole one even shows his hand. Ole man shows A3o and says, "I thought you had me outkicked there. Nice Hand". I say "Thank you(I think)".

Wow!!!!! I have hardly played a hand in 30 minutes, raise UTG, I cap PF UTG and he calls me down with this flop.

Re: I feign weakness...oh wait
 

Wouldn't one think that dealers who deal poker all day or night and seen 1,000s of hands become fairly good players? Tis' not the case where I play at least with the female dealers. Not to come off as sexist, but I have played with several after or in between their shifts all the time and they are not good. Haven't seen any male dealers playing but just females.

i've played with a ton of dealers in the past. i've actually noticed a difference between the male and femaler dealers. most of the female dealers i've played with are there to have a good time, they suck, they know they suck and they embrace it. the opposite is generally true for the male dealers. they suck, they don't know they suck, and they are in complete denial about their suckitude.

these are the same dealers that will be dealing a hand(or when a hand is over)and make smug comments about the play of a particular hand even though they have little real idea about proper strategy.

one thing about them, they see alot of the crazy plays i make/try to make, and so when we're in a hand together i get looked up alot due to skepticism because of my table image. i've also run into their trying to make a big play/bluff against me(particularly NL) so they can brag about it to the other regs/dealers. f'ers.

Good analogy about the dealers.

This one hand the other day I flopped a low set of something and I kept betting and reraising etc. There was a 2 flush out on the board. I bet the river and some guy rivers a str8 on me. I end up mucking after he shows down his str8. The Dealer had no idea what I had mucked. He looked at me and asked "diamond flush draw"? A 3rd diamond never did hit on the end. I look at him strangely but I said nothing to him. Why would I bet a flush draw when it doesn't come in a multi way pot? Guess the hand reading virus was going around. Wasn't obvious to anyone what I was betting cause someone else asked me if I had Aces. I had limped in with my small PP. No Ace on the board.

Re: lol bet/foldaments
 

ok so I played for two days this weekend and managed to set a personal record for number of bet/folds accomplished (probably around 15) and a new low for % wins with KK (1/7).
it was funny as I only took the KK to showdown twice (won once). 5 times i folded the turn or river (ace on board a few times, trips on the other times). lol and no they were never good.

given that, still managed to book 10 BB wins both days.

Also never even went on tilt. I think this is something thats changed a lot from my younger days. If i ran like this a year ago, I would have easily donked off 50 BB before steaming out the cardroom. Not tilting has got to be one of the most +EV moves you can make.
