Default It\'s been fun

what's really strange is that all the sa125 posts I can remember (at least in recent history) involve weird FPS on 3/4 streets and then he asks for advice on the 4th street. and yet he continues to play 50/100 on a regular basis. Somebody tell me what I'm missing...posting bias?

[/ QUOTE ]

vmacosta, I rarely post hands for the follwoing reasons. I win plenty of them with nothing or the worst hand and posting would be nothing but a brag. The hands I misplayed I know why.

I thought the river was interesting here for this reason - I was 90% sure I had the best hand on the turn and made him pay for it. Yet not following up with a river bet made sense and calling wouldn't. But I had to anyway if he did.

If that confuses you, it did me also. So I posted. Naturally I receive a slew of basic "3 bet pf" responses, even though I said in the OP it's nothing new, I do it also just not this time, nolo contendre (no contest).

Not good enough for the superstars who have no respect for me or my game and think they have an idea what it'd be like to play against me. They have no clue.

As far as how I'm still playing 50-100, here's a couple of hands that are typical of how I play but I'd never post.

50-100 Stud 8.

Only 2 low cards up. I have (6s 7s) Js and limp along in EP with the other low card. He's weak passive. If I'm in LP I raise. If there's more low cards I fold. 3 way with the BI, who's a loose, bad calling station.

We all brick high on 4th, I bet, they call.

I low on 5th, they brick. I bet, BI calls.

I low on 6th and pick up a fl dr. I bet, BI folds. I'm sure he had a weak but better hand. I win with J high and outs simply by playing their heads and their hands.

50-100 O8.

UTG raises and it's folded back to me. He's agro good and has a good hand from there. But I can play his hand. I call the BB with A34Q suited A.

Flop T74 I ch/c his standard continuation bet because he'll ch a turn brick with a good low hand but keep betting with AA.

Turn J. Ch/ch. River brick I'll win.

River T. I bet, he folds. Same as other hand. I routinely win pots with nothing by playing their heads and hands. Basically playing well.

I'm far from great, but to be viewed on here as badly I'm viewed is funny. It really is. I really need to stop wasting our time here. I obviously offer nothing and get even less back. GL.

I'm a total newbie and a n00b and even I can see that OP's hand playing sucks and also his attitude. I just love these thrashing posts...I should be moving up limits big time...

Lets just do a simple review here.

Online poker game.

Button raises. You call in the small blind with 99. Big blind calls.

Flop is QJx, you bet, big blind calls, button raises, you call, big blind calls.

Turn is a blank, you check, big blind checks, button bets.

How do you POSSIBLY think you are ahead 90% of the time in this situation? There is NO way you are ahead 90% of the time here when the button bets the turn. NO WAY.
