The Well: BobboFitos

[bpc009]

Thanks Bobbo,

This has been a good well, I've gotten a lot out of it.

bobo -

if bigO gets head from a fat chick in the forrest but no one is around to hear it, can he pretend it didnt happen?

1. That 8x7s6s flop that we're checking w/ KK and A8- why?? Seems like those hands are ahead there and we're missing a lot of value by checking because there are a lot of hands that can call us.

2. Have you ever learned something from a student?

[The White Rabbit]

You said you have some extraornidary ideas about bankroll requirements/management, care to elaborate?

bobbo,

I posted this in MSNL but I figured I'd post it here, too.

Villain is pretty much unknown, definitely not a regular though. He seems loose preflop but over a small sample. This is the first time I've 3 bet him, and I've been in line so far.

2/4 6 max, I have $405 and he covers.

LAG raises UTG+1 to $14, Villain calls next to act, I make it $60 from the SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], LAG folds and Villain calls.

Flop: 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($135)

I lead for $75, villain calls.

Turn: K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($285)

Hero?

I have $270 left on the turn.

check call up to all in, if he checks behind consider value pushing the river or check folding. if its a 4th heart as well, consider value pushing the river or check folding. if its a jack, consider value pushing the river or check calling.

I checked, he bet $120, which makes calling kinda awkward. Your plan?

Hey guys, dont mean to bump my own well, I'm not that egotistical or whatnot. But, it's late, im an insomniac, and I got 2 pms about people wanting me to answer the few questions I didnt get to. So, here goes: (And my apologies for not getting to them at the end!)

The concept is what i call "no equitable advantage," and happens ~somewhat frequently with marginal 1 pairs. AA is not a marginal 1 pair and often in a class of its own. 2pair is obviously not 1 pair.

I learn all the time from students. Esp. ones that ask good questions.

I hope I never used the word extraordinary, because I dont think my ideas are too revolutionary or whatnot. But basically, if you dont rely on poker to feed yourself or whatnot (which is most people, esp. in SSNL) either bc you work or are a student, there is no shame is "blowing" your BR. if people depend on you, that is a different story. Any case, because of this, you should play whatever the highest limits you feel comfortable with: What I mean by that, is you evaluate a decision based on EV, not money. I also think various suggestions such as "move up with X buyins," is somewhat hogwash. You dont know what you can or cannot beat until you try!

Al money: That hand, I think I got back to you in the pm, but for closure, id felt.

Hey Bobbo, I'm bumping your well since it was so good and I didnt get to ask anything.

1. Ogre mage or paladin?
2. Rank them. Number 1 being the best game WC2, SC, WC3, AOE.
3. Did you ever play pro, semi pro any game?
4. Poker now... Rank this skills:
a) Hand reading, b) betting ability, c) extracting value, d) Position e) hand strength f)bluffing g)studying (2+2, books, etc ) h) bankroll management
5. What board are you most likely to cbet OOP against an unknown holding AJo ( say someone limped from the CO, you raise to 5BB and he calls ) and why
a) K85r b) 5h6h10s c) JcQh10h
