twp,

congrats, your line is great when you know you're gonna hit that gin-ball on the turn.

[/ QUOTE ]
One of my 13 gin balls on the turn? What about when I push a blank turn? Is that an easy call with bottom set? Even if he calls, I still have 13 outs on the river... Seems like a good line to me, no matter what...

[/ QUOTE ]

Do you really need to ask if bottom set calls a turn push on a blank? The line is fine, the problem people have with it is that you seem to think it is revolutionary and not 5 players on Stars could have played it as well.

Dude, it doesn't need to be 'revolutionary' to escape the grasp of all but 5 players in the Stars 3/6.

Remember, this is the typical level of play in the Stars 3/6.

who, me? I was never a regular. I played 10/20 for a very short time and then moved way down (actually to NL100 for a time and built back up from there).

Hahaha, based on my experience with you I know you won't be impressed with my game. Check out Loki_in_Love on Party! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] In any case, I've posted many time that I'm Gogumagog on Stars. Feel free to let me know what you think. I already have a pretty honest view of my game, I believe, but I'm always happy to hear another opinion. FWIW, I think my A game is very solid - good enough to beat average 10/20 online games. I think I get bored too easily and tilt way too often, so it doesn't really matter how good my A game is since I'm usually playing my B game and all too often playing my C or F game. I'm sure I did play against you because SexyFlanders sounds familiar, but I don't play very many hands and have no recollection of your game at all.

There are very few regs who are tough in the Stars 3/6. Maybe 2-3. And I didnt say I was the best player, I said I didnt think many people would play this specific hand this well.

[/ QUOTE ]

I have no notes on you. I have you as a VERY TAG/VERY TAG player by my parameters. I have 183 hands played with you at 3/6 only, and you won $214, $69 of it from me. I would guess you are a bit too TAG to be extracting maximum profit from these games, but with Raszi and I both at your table the entire time, plus Kamikazeee for a bit, you may have been more TAG than normal. Looking over a few hands, the following one that you won sticks out as odd to me;

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (6 handed) internettexasholdem.com

CO ($591)
Button ($869.15)
Hero ($703.75)
BB ($591)
UTG ($1194.45)
MP ($615)

Preflop: Hero is SB with 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to $24</font>, Button calls $24, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises to $88</font>, CO calls $64, Button calls $64.

Flop: ($267) 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $144</font>, CO calls $144, Button folds.

Turn: ($555) J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $359 (All-In)</font>, CO folds.

Final Pot: $914

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
No showdown. BB wins $914. </font>



If you had AA-QQ here, as your style would seem to dictate, then I don't care for the flop bet of just over half pot on such a highly textured board. Really, by my tastes, about the only hand I could see a TAG wanting to play like this is T9s, which you could have on a resteal, Just too much going on in that flop to give someone almost 3-1 for my taste.

That's all I got. GL with the rebuilding.

POKERSTARS GAME #7715844834: HOLD'EM NO LIMIT ($3/$6) - 2007/01/01 - 17:42:39 (ET)
Table 'Cline II' 6-max Seat #2 is the button

*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to GogUMagog [6s 8s]

Morbidity: raises $18 to $24
RaSZi: calls $24
SexyFlanders: folds

*** TURN *** [6d 7c 8c] [Js]
GogUMagog: bets $359 and is all-in
Morbidity: folds
GogUMagog collected $552 from pot
GogUMagog: doesn't show hand
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $555 | Rake $3
Board [6d 7c 8c Js]
Seat 1: Morbidity folded on the Turn
Seat 2: RaSZi (button) folded on the Flop
Seat 3: SexyFlanders (small blind) folded before Flop
Seat 4: GogUMagog (big blind) collected ($552)
Seat 5: BEMOL folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 6: ktrieu folded before Flop (didn't bet)

Edit: I have both Morbidity and Raszi as very tight players preflop. So I didn't think I really had to worry about draws here. I figured Morbidity for a big pair and Raszi for a small pair. I could have just pushed the flop, I guess. I don't think this hand is particularly great, but I don't think it's bad either. I'm kinda neutral on it.

NH sir, and given your reads, I agree then with your flop play. Nice when a squeeze goes bad then good all in one hand, huh?
