Default Re: A challenge from a long time ago.

85 hands into session=+ 27 BB
hand #485= -29
I think I am going insane LOL
my personal Fav was when UTG on one table limped with A2s. Flopped bottom pair on a Q high board against my KK with 4 other players and called a bet and a riase just to hit an ace on the turn.
Now I know why .50-$1.00 is a challenge.
I compare it to that 80s arcade game where you have to shoot all of the zombies walking around and each level, there are more and more an more until thery swarm you.
ROFL- I think I just took some crazy pills

I think you can bet/fold. With the fourstraight out there, and the action on the turn, I think you aren't getting raised by any hand worse than yours. But you will get a lot of calls by worse hands, that won't bet.

[/ QUOTE ]It depends. On .5/1 there are a lot of outrageous river bluffs etc. (or maybe not so if we bet/fold) I don't like folding any kind of two-pair in a large pot, so take any line that can't lead to a fold. But if this guy is a typical station it's ok. Since he's unknown I'd c/c.

Well I had a few bucks on Stars left asnd decided to play .25-50 yesterday and ran it up 78 BBs at 6 max tables one table at a time. I never did play online much at all and still don't play that much but maybe I'll give this a go when I get some more quiche going.

This is a great challenge, good idea bob. I'm trying to move up quickly in short handed games anyway so I think i'll give this ago. I'm starting at 3/6 though because that's my next step, i've already hit 100bb at 2/4 for this month. Horray for heaters!

Cool, good luck.

I Don't know if it is related, but because I've been playing some in lower limit games than I am used to, which are places where you can really punish people with value betting, I seem to be running good so far this month in my regular games, and it feels like my value betting game is sharper than usual. (if i was more ambitious, I would probably figure out where the periods were supposed to go in the previous sentence [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])
