Re: $40-$80 mix at Bellagio
Pardon my ignorance, but "it's the toughest 40/80 mixed in town!" ??
Isn't it also "the softest 40/80 mixed in town?"
And "the sexiest", "the loudest", etc...
Are there other 40/80 mix games...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 2
Wow... I think your post summarizes my thinking very closely - I didn't realize this was my thought process until you posted this, but yeah the aspects you discuss were in my head, somewhere!
Cool...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 2
Don't know if it's standard but it's not uncommon at CAZ by certain aggro-types to raise the turn on a draw and/or "just because" and/or a scare card hits and/or if they think you'll fold. I've...

Re: Mixed Games at Casino Arizona
There is no poker at "the other CAZ" - the only room is at Indian Bend, and that's the location of the new building once it is finished.
I don't have TONS of experience, but maybe 6-7 sessions...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 1
Yeah, I usually will raise the flop if a semi-tricky player leads into me (which is RARE), but I also check behind on more flops than almost anyone else I play with (a possible leak). This is...

Crazy Pineapple - winrates, variance, etc...
Didn't find much on a search.
I sometimes play in a 40-80 mix game where one of the games that gets called occasionally is Crazy-P. I *thought* I was playing this solidly, but since I might only...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 1
Wow I have a lot to learn still... this is only the 2nd time I've ever folded aces on the flop and both times, maybe due to luck, I was correct in doing so.
I guess I was thinking backwards, in...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 3
Forgot to post results:
After check-calling the turn and river, maniac says "nice hand" and turns over 88. After turning over my 99, the UTG/JJ guy got up and moved his seat.
I was pretty...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 2
I don't think I've ever done the bet/fold line, and conceptually I'm struggling with it but I'll have to try it on.
I don't like what I did this hand either, which is to check the river and have...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 1
tessarji - what does I hate it mean? I hate the flop? Hate the fold on the turn? Please explain.

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 2
WMB - thank you for the response... and I'm still learning this, and I get stubborn. If I'm going to bet/fold (putting 80 in and folding if I get raised) why wouldn't I just check-call (putting in...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 3
I called primarily to see if UTG would cap; he didn't.
I did lead out on the flop to put the most pressure on UTG and to see if he raised, and if so, if UTG+1/semi-maniac 3-bet it.
So action on...

Re: CAZ 40-80 Hand 3
The UTG will play solid and not get crazy/out of line. The UTG+1 will bet/raise an unimproved pair of deuces or A-rag the same way as if he had AA the whole way.
I ended up flat-calling, although...

CAZ 40-80 Hand 3
Middle of the day, mostly regulars.
UTG raises. He is very solid, aggressive, smart player whom I respect. UTG+1 3-bets (this is an unthinking LAG who will 3bet a large range of hands).
I am in...
