[whyzze]

ive been too lazy to play 6max for the past few days. Ive also been dabbling in HU, and its so damn easy. Only crappy thing is I have to put in way more hands to make my ironman/aussie millions medals.

[Spurious]

are the stars games always that tight at 6pm ET?

i gotta say something

aggro style works so much better in the micros, they play back at you so weak even for stacks, it's ridiculous.

KK just ran into AA for the third time in two sessions and this time it went for double stacks.

IMO, raise flop. I never smooth call this flop. I raise it up (to $18 maybe), and if he shoves over me, it's an easy fold.

If he calls, and checks turn, I check behind. Then, because he's thinking "OMG I HAVE AA AND I DON'T WANT HIM TO FOLD", he'll make a smallish bet on the river that you can call. In the end, you don't stack off with top pair. When he has something weak like KT, you get value out of him thinking his K is best when he bets into you on the river.

I guess it all depends on the read you had on him (I obv don't know his stats or anything).

ah makes sense. reason i didn't raise flop this time is because people fold so much when i raise donk bet, although flop is so drawy i guess i can expect a call. sometimes i play bad, i admit it.
