Re: $200 NL: Heads up Vs Tenking (Video)

Just do a search for camtasia codec, download the codec, and it'll work on whatever player you use.

I thought you exploited him well early on, but then failed to adjust to him later on. Once he...

Re: NLTRN - $20 reg - Preflop decision (sorry)

For what it's worth, I'd fold this the majority of the time to a player who's extremely passive. My thinking is that I'm most likely a coinflip, with a small chance of being 80/20 and a decent chance...

Re: I can\'t seem to beat the $5 or $6

Regardless of what you've been doing, try experimenting. Try calling preflop more frequently than raising. Figure out your opponents' weaknesses. Most likely, you're playing people who will hold on...

Re: AQ 5sng

If someone doesn't want to play poker you just have to take your 60/40 or 65/45 and shove on him or call a shove preflop. I'd just shove preflop with AQ if that's what he's doing. Otherwise take as...

Re: Why You Shouldnt Play HUSNG with 20 Buyins

Haha, I guess I should add a laundry list of conditions to when/if the 10 buy-in rule is ever useful. Suffice to say in my opinion it doesn't apply to the vast majority of people coming up the ranks,...

Re: Why You Shouldnt Play HUSNG with 20 Buyins

Sorry maybe I should have rephrased what I consider "successfully." Someone using the 10-buyin and STAYING at that level or above. Not just running up a roll on a short heater and then going busto...

Re: 33$*s NLTTRN: Annoyed villain takes bluffy line, but can I call?

Eh, tough call. Really is a total feel thing and depends on the player. From what you've described there's a good chance he has a busted flush/straight draw. Really the only two hands I can see him...

Re: HU SNG two pair... do i overvalue my hand here?

This is pretty much a setup hand and you're most likely going to go broke. If this guy was super passive/tight, you might be able to make a hero fold, but it'd take a sweet read to do it. Maybe even...

Re: Why You Shouldnt Play HUSNG with 20 Buyins

I agree with cwar's article. I don't know anyone that has done the whole 10 buy-in move-up deal successfully above the $30 level. Sure, I went from $10 to $20 hu very quickly, at 10 buy-ins or less,...

Re: HUSNG: Facing large Pf raises from Loose passive player

First hand I would call or fold, with a lean toward fold based on your assessment of loose/passive. He's either got a pocket pair here or a big ace. Re-raise is asking for trouble.

Second hand I...

Re: (NLTRN) Poo Bah Post: An Introduction to the 25-50 Blind Level

I agree with Ry's strategy, it's what I've been doing for a while now. In simple terms, it makes your opponent pay more to see a flop, which puts more chips in when you are in position; but, it keeps...

Re: 55$ turbo HUSNG anyone crazy enough to call this? K9 on AAA flop

Insta-fold. First hand and he re-raises a retarded amount? That's totally normal donk play and he will lose to you eventually barring a catastrophe. Small chance he has a PP and you're in really bad...

Re: 33$*s NLTRN: Can you resist shoving this river?

Honestly I would just check this river. It might be a little weak, but he's got to be scared of the 1-card straight and flush that came in, so I don't see getting much more out of him if he just has...

Re: NLTRN video: Decent opponent gets spewy

76 call was fine preflop because it seemed like he was just getting frustrated (although he actually had a hand). The post-flop call was standard for this level of opponent. I snap-call a huge...

Re: $2200 HU turbo SNG full tilt

I like the play. You could play it either way (call flop/shove turn, or raise flop/all shove) and be ok here I think.
The thinking for the first option is that if he has a hand like 10K with K of...

Re: NL100 - Turn decision with overpair

I keep betting. He called your raise pre and you bet postflop so he probably has a reasonable hand. Maybe two overs with a flush draw. So much of this is read-dependant, and whether you think he...

Re: BR Management and You (NLTRN)

Sorry, this forum is confusing to follow the threads sometimes. I was replying to Kharlog's post with his recommendation of $5k for $50's and $10k for 100's.

Re: NLTRN $11 River decision with set.

Your play was fine here. I think there's an argument for check/calling the river or betting and folding to a raise. My preference would be to bet around 200ish and fold to a shove. There's a good...

Re: [NLTRN] Do you play \"4 players HU sng\'s\" ?

I don't for the most part because it seems like there's usually better players in those with the same idea you have.

Re: [NLTRN] JJ with Q-high flop

This is an insta-call. I've seen this so many times playing fish at the $20-30 level and every time they've got air. No donk just shoves with TPTK or an overpair with a board like that. They'll try...
