This is sick I'm down to like final 4 tables of a 650+ person donkament with an M of ~1.5 and I never get opportunity to just shove cuz everyone is limping. edit: NM [censored] it I just shoved K7s over 3 limps and busto. Ah well. I cashed!

[kroeliewoelie]

Ok I destroyed some money:

1) KK<34o on K425A board (okay I did slowplay the flop for the first time in my life)
2) KK < T7 on 5279r board
3) K3<94 on K9xr board
[x] villain 3bets light (94o)
[x] read: villain calls shoves with ATC
[x] read correct
[ ] profit
4) and more bad stuff.

Getting one outted in Omaha is yikes. I may have nightmares about that. 2% equity ftw imo.

The Greatest uNL player known to man!!!


Arright guys, here is a phenom that I played with, all at NL30(deep):



After concluding that he was the best player I have ever played with (besides greenplastic, muddy water, phil hellmuth, traheho and antonio)

Somoene told me he used to play NL400 or 200 or 600 or something.

Notes:
1. I had a nice suckout vs him here for maybe a 180$ pot
2. I coolered him really hard with an overset. Prolly for a 140$, IDK.

Take those two pots away, and he had virtually no (significant) lost pots. I'd like to say, the reason I think his rate is sustainable is b/c of the upward trend you see in the graph. Its as if he dosent need cards. He just knows the level well enough that he wins money at will. Picking up blinds, squeezing, making good reads, etc... I'm guessing if the graph was 100k hands it'd look the same.

@ least he is gone from NL30.

Okay, so I'm trying to figure out how to counter people that 4bet when you have a decent hand. I'm running into this pretty often at 100NL and I tend to get lost (and generally change tables when I find this kind of play back at me often).

You're in the BB, villain is 21/19 and a very solid reg. with Att. Steal Blinds at ~35%. He open raises on the BTN for $4, you hold AQo and 3bet him to $13. He 4-bets you to $34. What do you do? You haven't played with this guy a ton but you've seen him make this play a few times already. Is shoving a reasonable option or can you get away from this hand? I realize that if this guy is 4betting light, shoving is definitely +EV, but I can't get myself to do it.

How do you people usually handle this? Also, I thought there was a sticky on 4betting, but I can't seem to find it.

[corsakh]

Very easy. Unless he 4bets light, he commits himself. He is effectively all in. You are the one deciding to put money in or not. Just catch him with the top of your range. I don't remember the exact math, but you need like to pick one spot in 8 being a 3 to 1 favorite to break even. Thats like AK vs AQ. Make it QQ vs JJ and you already show a good profit.

[Mr_Pathetic]

have not been owned this hard in awhile. flop i knew didn't hit him and didn't think he could put what left of his money in with a 5 or a draw. obviously that read was wrong lol. should have just took the free card...
