Fun live hand:

2/5 NL, most stacks are around 500, mine is at around 350.

Several players limp to me in the SB and I complete with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. BB checks and we take the flop like 6 ways.

Flop is A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I lead out for 15, BB folds, and an EP player raises to 110. An MP player behind him calls the 110. Another MP player folds the A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] face up, and everyone acts horrified. The button also calls 110. I'm pretty sure I don't have the full 9 outs, but I'm getting immediate odds to peel the flop for $95 more.

Turn is the 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I shove and get called in 2 spots.

River is a 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. The MP who folded A9 goes batshit. I show my nut flush and luckily the other two guys muck face down, nobody having the K9 or a slowplayed KK. Ship the gigantic pot my way, thanks idiots for playing even worse than I did.

Bad players make costlier errors at NL. At the moment, playing micro NL is like having a licence to print money .. but how long can that last?

gregorio · #**244** 10-29-2007, 06:52 PM

It is nice to make back all the days losses in one hand. Also nice to be in position with the nuts and someone betting into you playing for stacks. Just wish I could cash in the 80ptbb in sklansky bucks I won today.

Yesterday I was playing at Party to clear a bonus. First time in a while I played there because:
(1) Contrary to public belief, Party is a nit factory at NL50 these days, compared to other sites,
(2) They give you 7 days to clear a bonus that takes 3 weeks for a casual player like me. So I just bought in for a 3rd of it.

Within 20 minutes, my preflop raises were 3-bet more than in 2 weeks of Everest and Stars. Actually, at 1 table my first hand in the BB was:

I get AKs, MP (6-max) raises to 4BB, I repoop to 12 BB, MP 4-bet to 40 BB I shove. , Flop comes Axx, QQ no good.

10 minutes later, I was down 1.5 buy-in because, yes, these people mean it when they shove PF. Grind back to 1 buy-in up by nitting it up.

Then I switched back to limit 2/4 cause it clears faster. Found several tables with 2 or 3 people playing VPIP/PFR/AF/WTSD = 70/25/2/40 and made 20 BB there.

Sometimes I think table selection is the only real skill in poker.

Edit: I'm leaving in repoop beause it's just too good.

gregorio · #**246** 10-29-2007, 10:51 PM

Yeah, those party bonuses are horrible to clear now. Do you get the Empire ones. They clear in like no time. 10xs any raked hand, no min rake.

Yay!!! I just wanted to announce that I'm back and playing some unexploitable poker. Here's a fun sample of two consecutive hands at the 100NL game I played this evening:

I suck at limit and thought I'd try no-limit. I'm much better at no-limit. And I'm playing really well, too. Too bad I can't make money.
