How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

Im playing with a 96.5/34.7/0.8 over hundreds of hands. I cannot beat him. He has ten buy ins at the table, so its very lucrative to get in to pots with him.

Every time I raise, he calls. He calls my continuation bets with any drawy / piece of flop.

I have been raising my premiums (mostly AK type hands, and he just calls with bottom pair / air, or pushes me off hand. He is hitting hands, I am not, and he will not fold. How do you deal with this? I want to try to get a hand vs him, and win some monster pots vs him

His s/n and table he is currently on? You can sweat me while I play him and learn how.

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

Ive been playing on table for over two and a half hours, havent had a single hand I could value bet (except AK preflop, which has always bricked and he has taken down every time). Hes on FTP table ormsby name bruce007lee =p

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

<--- Awful Fish, mr tilty because he hasnt hit a hand in three hours until just now!
couple middle pairs/top pairs in a row, gotten almost $100 off him from them

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

Damn that waitigng list is so long...and it's 5:40 a.m. here.

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

I tend to play (raise/isolate) most hands of any type of potential vs players like him (total maniacs preflops, awful calling stations postflop)

So im raising to isolate a ton, calling his raises with hands like 5 6 since three buy ins deep and since he goes broke with any pair sometimes.

This OK?

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

i hope pokerbeeyotch gets owned...she has like some vendetta against me or something.


anyways. ya, playing hands in position against this guy is going to be a gold mine for you.

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

Yea.


But you should leave the table. And everybody on the waiting list should get off of it. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

wow, he dropped eight buy ins in thirty minutes. impressive.

That full tilt maintenance can wait, damnit!

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

Oh well just found out FT's server is going down for maintenance at 6:00...so that's 15 more minutes. Get his money while the getting's good.


And thanks for a name to add to my buddy list. I guess I have to play at least 1 table of FT now when I see him online.

easy modification to your standard plays...like earlier post said...VALUE BETS.
You want to design a situation where you can get all in with the best of it. That means making your PF raises sizeable and continuing from there with 2/3 to pot sized bets.
SN for this guy?????

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

I love these type of villains. Just play straight forward, stop getting too fancy if he's calling everything. Wait for a decent hand, connect with the flop.... and Value bet all the way to the bank. If your not getting any hands or making any remote connection with the flop at all, leave.

Re: How to beat a 96.5/34.7/0.8?
 

Try this. Stop playing anything not connected. get position on him and start playing hands like 64s, 87o, pocket pairs stuff like that. Leave bigger hands alone. If he calls alot of your raises after limping limp with him if someone else doesn't screw it up. I just played a 72/21/2 tonight and took a strategy similar to this and hit my straight and got all in against his two pair.

also stay very in tune with him and make sure you know when he has something that cannot handle pressure and crank up the heat. maybe even close out other tables if you really want to center in on him.

Here is two hands from same villain who was 71/21/5. Hotpapa1 was his s/n on FTP. Hand one was me noticing he was FOS. His call on the turn made me wonder but he thought forever like lemme call see if I get a cheap showdown. He would never check river with a good hand.

Or you can just do this. I called on flop cause he had pulled this line as a bluff earlier plus I felt like all my outs were clean.
