Re: schwallie is a chump moron
I know most of you are way balla and will say, "no biggie" to my news, but I've hit a nice bankroll landmark. In May I deposited $200 of birthday money into Pokerstars and donked around a bit. I was down to $60 and decided to give no limit a try.
I read a couple of books and was off and running. I started at nl25 buying in for $15 and must have run good to get up to $150 pretty quickly. Well, I've been taking shots at 50nl and my bankroll just hit $1000. I'm stoked! |

[ QUOTE ] Why are you set-mining in a heads-up pot anyways? [/ QUOTE ] Who said I was set mining? [/ QUOTE ] For what other purpose are you cold calling with a small/medium pair? How are you playing on the flop if you don't make a set? I'm sure a certain % of the time you are going to fold to a continuation bet, especially if the flop texture isn't favorable. Sometimes you might float to see what villian does on the turn, BUT a lot of times players will check their big pairs on the turn. So cold-calling with the intention of calling the flop isn't exactly strong poker if you know what I mean. I'm only bringing this up because I've seen you make similar plays like this (even against me where you called pre and then folded to my cbet) and I think it might be a minor leak in your game. |
