People saying shove the turn are idiots.

Yes shoving turn is standard but lol if you think a turn check sucks.

i thought about this hand for like 3 minutes. i'm still confused. it looks so donkish but i think its the correct play. you certainly can't check...

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

check turn is good, because we can make a full house.

full house &gt; sets

push river is good too, because we have to protect our hand.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP

Obviously. It's a reraised pot, putting him on diamonds is stupid. People usually shove diamonds on the flop too, his hand looks like JJ or AQ or something. River is super standard.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

No, aislephive, those guys are right. I definitely should've shoved the turn. I mean, what if the guy had http://www.legopoker.com/img/uploads...1193099230.jpghttp://www.legopoker.com/img/uploads...1193099134.jpg?

Joke. I've had great results at MSNL since March and recently got coached by thebruiser. Of course I played it right. Now let's stop crudding up my thread with strat posts and make fun of Canadians.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

OK ya you are gay

I'm pretty sick of hearing about how soft party is. I don't play there anymore because seriously MSNL isn't really that soft

I did very well but there are better sites to play at for sure. YAY ONE GUY AT NL 200 PLAYED A HAND BAD HAHAHA OMG HOW SOFT I BETTER TELL EVERYONE

and hey guess what the games back earlier this year actually WERE way better before every retarded mediocre tagfish felt like crowing all over 2+2 OMG PARTY IS SOFT GOOO PLAY THERE

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

Shove turn because you don't want to let a flush draw check behind. You want to protect your hand and valueshove it.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

people who say pp is tough at NL400/600 are retarded.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP

People who brag to message boards of internet poker professionals when they find a site that is soft are retarded.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

let's all move to absolute!

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

bet turn
river is fine as played
party is soft

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

As played you have to push this river. But LOL and Villain.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

is party any easier @ 2knl+?

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

How the hell is preflop acceptable? Calling off 1/10 of your stack OOP because you put him on AA-KK? Yuck. /bbvstrat

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

pf is wayyy worse than turn

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

7.5:1 to hit a set. With the money in the pot ($31) and implied odds ($179) I'm getting 210:14 or 15:1. If I knew he was 3betting wide I would've folded. But I went with my read, which was that I'd stack him every time as long as no ace flops. Like I said in the OP, I was wrong but got paid anyway.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

Wow.

Re: I heard a rumor that PartyPoker is softer than PS/FTP
 

what site doesnt have soft 1/2 games..? come on now..
party 2/4 is still pretty soft imo, 3/6 is pretty random, sometimes its really good and sometimes you cant find any descent tables. 5/10+ is no rosegarden like in the old days, theres a ton of pretty good regs crowding the tables waiting for fish to sit. still the games are clearly beatable of course, i'm not sure it really differs that much compared to other sites. many of those that remember the "old" party and cant play there any more has a very biased picture of what its like.

but congratuolations to op for finding a drooler at 1/2 (lol)
