I <3 minbet hold\'em - nl is for wimps
 

2/4 nl, 400 eff stacks.

Folded to sb who calls, i check T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in BB.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Villain checks, Hero bets $8, villain raises to $16, hero raises to $24, villain raises to $32, hero raises to $64, villain calls.

Turn: 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain checks, hero checks.

River: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain bets $101 into $140, hero raises to 222, villain calls w/ J7o, table goes nuts and villain begins to berate me, then says "well...maybe i should have raised more on the flop."

Also: this hand was glorious tilt, at the end of a long session. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I got to minraise this same villain 5 hands later with the nuts...i think i missed out on about $70 of value but it was so sweet to do it to him again. hysteric laughing tilt is the best type.

minraising people -- especially regulars -- is far more important than maximizing value

Going for comedy value over EV is definitely a big leak of mine.

It's so true. Minraising him a few hands later had my falling out of my chair laughing...this is a new type of tilt for me b/c it wasn't possible in real minbet hold'em.

One of those advanced concepts I had trouble getting my head around, nice to see an actually example hand to drive it home.

This post for some reason is too funny.

All the min-raising should have been a red flag. Obviously it wasn't. NH

yesterday i was playing nl200 live and saw the sickest checkminraise

the pot was 5 way limped, flop comes q-9-9. SB checks, everyone checks to button who bets 10$, SB minraises to 20$, everyone folds to button who calls

turn 8, SB checks, button checks
river 3, SB checks, button checks

SB shows QQ

?:(

BTN 3-bets or at least bets the turn with a 9 so the only way of SB making money is getting BTN to bluff. Standard really.
