Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

If it is, it should be very easy to exploit opponents [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] I have never played LHE in a horse context so I don't really know. If a hand is heads up when we see the flop I'm taking a dry A to the river sometimes. LHE is kind of what gives BBV the ammo for it's funny limit pictures ("I THREE BET").

Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

Is it really profitable to like auto-fold 40% of the hands? Or do you still play super premium hands like big pairs, AK AQ, and AA23ds in O8? I'm curious. Before people told me to just play and sort of ignore the games I don't know, but it seems unlikely you could make money that way, unless, I guess, they're just givin it away.

Uhm, not playing hands in H and O is terrible. Think about how many BB / 100 you lose if you just pay the blinds.

is it really standard to never fold ace high and call down with king high like 80 percent of the time

At this level? I don't think you understand limit hold em if you think "these donks are just calling you too much" and you're really the better player. If you're bluffing and they call you down light they're beating you

Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

Also you are possibly folding way too many winning hands. There are 2 reasons someone calls down with A high:
* It's good often enough
* They leak money like a sieve

It's easy to tell who's in the second category, soon enough.

Huh?

Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

If someone says they "sit out" holdem and omaha, this means they're autofolding 2 out of 5 hands, right? (re: xxeximusxx's comment above)

Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

When you sit out you're not dealt any hands, and you don't pay the blinds. It's not like you can sit in for the stud games and then play hold em without starting as the big blind

Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

Ah, I see, literally sit out. What happens when you come back in? If you mis-time it are you having to post, or wait?

Re: Anyone else play $1-$2 HORSE at FTP?
 

So like, what percentage of the table is sitting out at any given time? If everyone sits out holdem, does the game just stop and 2 of you have to suck it up and play HU?
