Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

I posted this in "Other Poker" as well, but I noticed that shaundeeb chose LIMIT 5-CARD DRAW as his game in the heads-up TLB match against Greg Raymer today. I never watch these things, but as one of the biggest afficionados of 5CD online, I'll have to make an exception. LOL HUDRAWAMENTS.

Oh, and if shaun needs any HU advice, I made one of my very posts to 2+2 about 3 years ago after my first HU situation in a MTT. I played like a sissy and got ran over and cried for help. Fossilman told me "When in doubt, be aggressive!" [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

When is this? I don't see it in the lobby.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

lol. Very cool Shaun. I'd prefer 2-7 td, but 5cd will be fun too.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

its at 2pm est for those not seeing it you prob have your tourney filter on and since its 5cd it may be blocked.

Yuv I considered it but I have more 5cd HU experience and I think raymer is less likley to have it.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

Except you suck at 2-7...

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

loll who won that match? I had a memory lapse.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

Good luck Shaun! GOGOGOGOGO!

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

Shaun,

Here's a hand history with the secret to winning a HU 5CD match (note: this actually belongs in BBV).

Tournament: Limit 5 Card Draw (10000/20000) (converter)

SB (95000), Seat 5
Hero (193000), Seat 3

SB posts 5000. Hero posts 10000.

Hero is BB with [4c 6c 5c 3c 7c]

Round 1: (1.50 SB)

<font color="red">SB raises. </font><font color="red">Hero raises. </font><font color="green">SB calls. </font>
Hero stands pat. SB takes 1.

Hero has [4c 6c 5c 3c 7c]

Round 2: (3.00 BB)

<font color="red">Hero bets. </font><font color="green">SB calls. </font>

Pot: (5.00 BB - 100000)

Results: (in white)

<font color="white">Total pot 102000 | Rake 0

Hero had [4c 6c 5c 3c 7c] and won (102000) with a straight flush, Three to Seven.
SB had [Ad Ah Jc 2s 2c] and lost with two pair, Aces and Deuces.

THAY3R [observer]: embarassing

FossilMan [Commentator]: flush draw or pair? big cards in flush draw, probably supposed to play that instead of pair

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

Quite the rollercoaster-unfortunately for Shaun that his tens up got crushed by Raymer spiking that 3rd Jack.

I think Shaun tried too hard to buy pots with a few of his unimproved low pairs, since I don't think Fossilman is the kind of player that will fold too much (this is a common opponent in HU/short-handed draw).

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

tom I never improved I had to bluff I couldn't win at showdown once he started calling with 10+ I stopped betting those low ones and folded predraw 22-66 instead of limp/calling like when we were deeper.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

If you were running that bad late then you were pretty much screwed, once the blinds get fairly high and the opponent is not horrible.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

some of that chat is priceless. I'm sitting in my campus library right now trying not to break the dead silence with laughter so I don't look like a wierdo.

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

best part of chat was the host ripping apart thayer

Re: Good luck Shaundeeb!
 

naw, the best part was that girl asking Raymer if he wanted to do a 3-some, LOL. He didn't answer.
