A learning experiment

whats a joint?

Do you think if you are really good post flop you can make this work?

I mean, most of the time you are going to miss the flop and fold anyway. Do you think you can make up enough bets the times when you flop your weird straights and boats from your trash hands?

Maybe doable at nanos?

sounds like a hand you can share with your buds with some nice tunes, etc. wait what was i talking about.

I don't think the idea is to have >0BB/100, but to focus on post-flop play. Actually maybe {winrate MINUS preflop_investment} might be interesting (over a large sample of course).

So, final stats over the first time of the expiriment:

total hands: 64
VP$IP: 100%
W$WSF: 26.56%
Amt Won: $2.41
BB/100: 37.66
WTSD: 20.31
W$SD: 76.92
PFR: 6.25%
Total AF: 4.11

Not sure what this says about my game except I run goot at .05/.10

I am pretty sure that there is no way I could have done as well as I did against any but the most passive players, as I got sooooo many free cards in multiway pots it was scary. It was not unusual to see a 6way flop checked through. If anyone at the table had the balls to actually bet, I would have folded a lot of hands I ended up winning on the flop.

Was he the guy that tried something like this at 5/10 or something much higher than the nanos?

Either way, this sounds fun. I'll give it a go when I get the chance.

I think there was a minor drama bomb when some of the HS guys made a bet they could go 100 hands or something at 100 vpip 100 wsd. Lots of people seeing the spew fest it was and saying "think of the children." Even when it was pointed out that the 100 to 200 BB lost was something like 8 BB at their regular limit.

This has almost 0% chance of working even at nanos. Even if almost everyone else has such a high VPIP there's the rake to consider.

As I was telling matt over AIM, I think this is a good idea in theory but probably better just loosening up dramatically vs. playing every hand. Raising 66 UTG can force you to adjust to situations you're not used to, but limping 72o only to check-fold doesn't seem very educational to me.

alternately, it's a straight. by which i mean a poker hand of 5 consecutive ranks and not a heterosexual.

of course, now that i mention it, i might have to try and "flop a joint" the next time one of the more nubile Microers is in town.
