I am running good so I make a loose preflop call. Villan is a regular who has been datamined as a loser over a pretty big sample size but has been playing pretty solid this session.

Ok...funny calls part two....

You have to know that i am very laggy. I`m raising very much with hands like example one. Ok: My image is prolly worse
than horrible, i raised the last 5 hands and won without showdown...but thats still no explanation for what happened:

AMAZING!!!!

And pastorbator is right [ok, who am i to say that]...for a laggy play you almost raise ATC on the BT...

Depends on how bad he is, but raise on river is often gonna get called by better hands and is way to thin. Also just fold this preflop.

At higher stakes, you sometimes check behind this turn for pot control. This is 25nl and the guy will rarely ever fold an ace and you have no reason to think your beat! So keep betting and extract value so bet like 3/4pot. As played if you are going to check turn (which I still dont reccomend at 25nl) you should bet way closer to pot on the river. You basically disguised how strong your hand is by checking turn and you are defenitely ahead so just bet more and ull get called. Like the worst move alot of people do is c/b flop check turn and bet river with air and they always get looked up light so when you have a hand make sure you get max value.

Why did you get scared on turn and river? Remember this is 25nl you beat worse two pair and other one pair hands that he will probally call you down with! Plus the flop is rainbow so no fd draws but bet to get value out of QJ if hes still around as well. So on turn fire again for like $6.

I hope cash is going good for you gl and I might drop down a few levels to take your money. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img].

LOL, snakezilla...do you think i raised for value????
NO WAY....i thought like 90% that i am good. I only raised for obv reasons = DONT SHOW DOWN 83s !!!
And i raised min, just to be able to get away if he has it and my read would be wrong...

But maybe you can comment hand two from me more funny...

This is flawed logic. If you think your good but he wont call with worse then why are you betting. Showing down 83s is fine, just remember that you showed it down and adjust to how he will view you. That other hand you pasted is WOW, add him to the buddy list for sure. Comment on my 3 hands now [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img].

[Hercules]

Ok snake:

Hand1: Like it if Villain is uber-aggro. Else i would say its spew.

Hand2: Against good Villain always spew...unless he calls here with trips...

Hand3: Do peple really fold KJ here? If you wanna rep AK, it can be expensive to 3 barrel, if someone does have a K. I like a check/fold in this spot more

I hate to sound that negative. And maybe i am just wrong, because i never played that high


about your comment "flawed logic": I didn`t want to show down 83, because i wanted to keep on stealing blinds. If i show that crap down, i can`t cbet the next ten years. I dont want that they play back with nadda. If they raise me, i always know that i need a strong hand. But if i show that crap...i don`t get any freerolls...

[Knight Vision]

Suzzer - in regard to buying in short, this is a good read.

[snakekilla88]

wow Herc sounds like I am the spew master thanks for the advice!

To all of the hands that were posted in this thread,


Holy [censored] post it in SSNL. You need help.


Also, i was KIDDING with the hercules 83s hand. I recommend giving your money to a homeless person if you're gonna play the hand like that. It will go to better use.
