AQ.. WHERES MY BLANK TURN LEE

in hindsight, i like b3b on the flop, becuase you might get curious with smaller queens since it's draw heavy, and if you have a set i'm [censored] anyways, and a draw makes up a large portion of your range, so i shoudl have just shoved flop; check calling the turn is awful

[aejones]

no doubt i want to kill myself i suck at life. don't EVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES play a huge nit heads up. they will seriously sit and fold 9 out of 10 hands and then flop two sets on you to own you, no joke.

[Sciolist]

2007:

1. Average 25k hands per month
2. Fold more
3. Study opponents more
4. 8 table?
5. +$100k?

I'm still playing $1/$2 though, I cashed out all but $5k online. So far this month: 2k hands, +$200. Hurrah!

[MINETZ]

Goal: play some hu, a lot of people play this that have no idea.

Nah dont kill yourself. First hand I gave you a tough decision - i think i valuebet top two pair and up and will also bluff some missed draws there. Still, it was very thin call you had to decide on, although obv im never check/calling a decent made hand there so maybe you couldve pushed me off, had you acted swiftly. Second hand timing and how the board fell bit you in the ass. I can see how the situation and our history got you into calling (could happen to me, and to whom not?), and i was playing that situation, it all rolled out very lucky for me. Tough luck, but that one was a sure fold imo, most likely already on the flop.

I was folding light in our session but I don't think I am as nitty as you thought I was, but maybe you are right.

cu at the tables, and gl
