Default Re: Are Players More Likely to \"Make Moves\" After You Suffer a Bad Bea

If you get a big hand play it really really aggressively.

A few times I've taken a beat and got dealt AA/KK next hand, as long as people at the table noticed the beat you can push preflop and often get called by A8, 66 etc.

If you think people are viewing you as a tilt monkey then dont cbet for a while since you'll get looked up. Value bet your big hands harder etc.

After an orbit or two though it should be forgotten and you can get back to normal.

I've seen this happen, for 2 orbits I was getting every hand like AA, KK etc, honestly, and the flops hit me beautifully. I was flopping sets and driving them hard but lost about every hand...this was the 1st orbit. On the 2nd orbit same thing happened again except I was actually tilting but still hitting those flops but now 2 smarter players started calling with anything, I can only assume they figured I suffered a bad beat, was now tilting and playing rubbish any old 2 cards. My sets and 2pairs were coming in though and I ended those 2 orbits +/- zero P&L.

Go figure. I have never seen such a merry-go-around, I was taking a shot at NL50, my wife was standing next to me seeing those $90-$100 pots flying around and practically screaming.

What do you do with medium strength hands where people are looking you up? Say you have ATs and the flop comes JT3 giving you a backdoor flush draw. You raised in late middle position and get called by a couple of players who have position on you and you feel that if you bet the flop, you'll get at least one caller with no idea of your opponent's range. You think they might check and call down with top pair hoping you spew chips with bad bluffs, but you're not sure.
