You can't bluff a calling station

Best Villain ever. Total LAG maniac, can hold any 2 cards and loves betting with the worst hand. I had to switch gears when in hands against him, and just call rivers with A-high.

Here are some of our battles:

i play hands like this every day. does that mean i suck at poker?

You open-raise Q9o and K5s in EP at a full table?

Raul Wong · #4 02-04-2006, 11:00 PM

These guys are awesome. You think they would realize whats going on after the 5th hand they try to push you off.

Edit: But it sucks when they river a raggedy pair to beat your ace high hand after hand. Then distribute your money to the rest of the table. Or immediately leave with a nice chunk of your stack.

no, the same from your perspective, with the same results. i just don't see what makes these hands so post-worthy.

It's BBV. I'm bragging about seat selection and being able to milk almost $200 from a maniac. In no way do I think my play was expert. But I'm certainly not calling down with A-high this often against unknowns or tight players.

And yes, if you play any hands the same way I do, then you do suck at poker. Sorry.

Hand one - good.
Hand two - bet the turn.
Hand three - bet the flop.
Hand four - raise the flop.

Second that. Only the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] hand is Giggety Giggety.
