Re: The Well: SEABEAST
Seabeast, thanks for doing this.
What sort of hands do you generally call and generally 3bet when you're on the button and the CO opens? and why? (assume CO is a 21/17 kind of player and the blinds aren't very squeezy) |

I have trouble sometimes with guys with nitty stats but who threebet a ton, you know the type - 19/12 or 18/15 but they manage to threebet or squeeze you once every orbit. After a while you can figure out how often they are reraising and adjust a bit but at first it's really hard to deal with [/ QUOTE ] Can you be more specific how you combat these types. |

Re: The Well: SEABEAST
How do you approach c-bets in 3-way pots as opposed to heads up?

Re: The Well: SEABEAST
How do you approach c-bets in 3-bet pots as opposed to raised pots, headsup, when you miss the flop? (AK on undercard flop, TT on KJ7 flop, 67s on QQT flop...) If your image is important, suppose you play 22/18, you have been 3-betting a wider range than just premiums, but you still get respect from the table. 100BB starting stacks, open raise was to 4xBB, you raise to 15xBB, original raiser called.

Where is online poker going in the next 5 years? 15 years? ie regarding dominant games, playing styles, profitablilty, legalitly? Educated guess unless u have some sort of cystal ball. [/ QUOTE ] Tough question. I'm sure poker will always be very beatable in one form or another, because there are certain human faults (like overestimating own ability, overrating the influence of luck, and just plain having too much money) that mean there will always be fish. But I have always assumed that the current state of poker, where it's not at all uncommon for an 18 year old to pick up the game and be making 6 figures within a year, to be a generational thing. Like maybe it will last for 5 years, maybe 10, but I just can't see that sort of thing being the case forever. I think eventually you will at least need either a natural affinity for the game or to be very intelligent, whereas at the moment there is a enough money being thrown away that you don't need any talent, just the discipline and patience to learn how to catch the money that is falling from the sky. |

[ QUOTE ] Top books to read for this level? Honestly, once you get to a level of basic competence the 2+2 forums and Cardrunners are much better than books. The best advice I can give you is to figure out who the good regular posters are here and focus on their posts, mostly filtering out the rest. [/ QUOTE ] who do you think are some of the good posters on here? |
