Default Re: is this easy?

this hand is really not all that exciting. Yes, it's a big mistake to pass up hugely +EV situations, but I don't think this is one (not having read your results yet).

Put villain on a range: A4, 44, KhJh, JhTh, other 2-heart and gutshot hands, bluffs. You're ahead of some of it, you're crushed by some of it. When people get into donkey mode, it's hard to tell what they're thinking. In the end, it's kind of a tossup. Keep in mind that someone going for a checkraise with AQ, 44, A4 or KhJh is calling behind you, and you're in deep trouble.

If you like tossups with your whole stack, and can reload to try again, go for it. But if he's really spewing, you can be patient, and get it all in when you've got him crushed for sure.

The key to the micros is to just sit back, play it really simple, and wait for the donkeys to screw up when I'm way ahead.
