Ty. But I learned the hard way that it's better to be nitty than reckless when you play for a living.

November so far (I can feel a breakeven stretch is on its way):

You played this fine. The min raise is fine, because it sets up an easy river all in, which is all you need to do. It will also both give him good odds on the turn and river, and if an idiot he's more likely to call like that then call a shove on turn with a non-T hand.

Obv you're not folding, so I assume that's the only thing you're talking about?

Yeah.

Re: SSNL [cheese] thread: NOV Pt 2 (nc)
 

I'd also bet the flop larger

Re: SSNL [cheese] thread: NOV Pt 2 (nc)
 

lol @ flop bet

turn raise is fine, dude. there was a very good discussion on when minraising is ok in MSNL a long time ago.

Re: SSNL [cheese] thread: NOV Pt 2 (nc)
 

Can somebody please prove Gavin Smith wrong for me. He said in that AJ would be a loser in everybody's database because of how deceptively mediocre it actually is, i think there's no way that can be true, i look in my DB and [censored], i'm losing 0.4BB/hand with AJ. Anybody!
