Awesome post AJ. McShove, if you run into a player that you know is 3-betting light and firing 2nd barrels a lot, doesn't that becomes an advantage to you????

AJ good post and thanks for sharing.

I would like to add that position is VERY important as well and sometimes much more important than your hand value. Everyone will encounter a foe who has better postflop skills so to counteract that or EVEN the playing field if you will, is to only tangle with your stronger opponents when you have a fav position on them. There will be times you are forced to play OOP but I believe you should keep it to a min against these very good players. I think this alone will make you a much tougher opponent in their eyes.

Once again AJ, u da man!

McShove has made it clear he should be banned, as he is just a leech and does not plan on helping the forums at all.

Seriously McShove ...

Haven't you learned a lot from this forum?

Maybe not this forum, but in the STT forum he sure did. When I used to play him at the 55s, he made some pretty atroucious plays, especially around the bubble. So, that forum at least, has helped him quite a bit.

But yes, every time he posts he seems more and more like a bigger dick.

Good post. Something I just wanna add is if you've been at the table for a bit and people are noticing you often give up after cbetting and getting called, a good line to take it either 2 barrel bluff (which im not crazy about cause I often play for pot control when OOP and check the turn with many good hands) or go for the CR. The opponent jumps on your weakness, bets pot which should be 20bb and this point, and allows you to CR him allin. If you have an overpair on a 262 board or a good hand that your willing to go broke with (and often you should against someone whos calling to float), this play works amazing becuase it makes them afraid to float you if you not only fire second barrels, but have the balls to CR their asses allin. Do this play with the goods most often, and sometimes just whiffed AK hands, and thell lay off.
