Where is that owl when I need it. You realize he would probably have called your river bet with 22, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, TT, QQ, J3, AJ, A3 any A,...

I agree that bet/calling the river is the optimal play but due to the way I am running I check/called.

Scott, you need to take a break. You're on tilt (altering the way you play your hands due to the results from previous hands). You're actually on some pretty serious monkey-tilt, it sounds like, given the convolutions you've gone through in this thread, and the highly suspect assumptions you're making about Villans' thought-processes.

And, fwiw, the argument that Villan might have folded his boat thinking you had a better boat is completely specious...a) the guy cold-called 3 pf with a small pair, 2) nobody ever folds a boat on the river in micro games, and iii. you bet the river because he will call with worse hands, not because he will fold better ones.

lol...look one post up. The fact that you've lost a few hands is meaningless, except inasmuch as it's affecting the way you're playing new hands.

If it was only "a few hands" I wouldn't have posted it. It has been happening this way 90 out of a 100 hands for 5 months straight.

I am suprised nobody asked me for my screen name so they can pick up the bucket loads of bets I am dumping.

Sorry, I am ssooooooo frustrated with poker because of this. I do appreciate your respones and tonight when I am not at work I am going to post ALL of my hands in a 30 min session for you to look at. So please stay tuned .

eh, you might not want to do that unless you have a fetish for trainwrecks. Take a few days off srsly -- you are going to tilt away even more. And think about what your first statement I quoted means. Do you realize what your win rate would be if you won 90 out of 100 hands like this [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] If you cant live with that then switch to NL -- fewer suck outs ????? profit.

I bet fold the river, but I think I do that too often without really understanding what I am doing.

I maybe over thinking but at the same time I think you are under estimating today's .5/1 players. 2 years ago I would agree with you, but today IMO, there are far less donks like the ones you are describing.

[/ QUOTE ]

I agree with this comment at least to the extent that games have been getting tougher on all levels I've played after the UIGEA. That includes 0.50/1 when UIGEA happened.

Nevertheless, Villain in this hand is a donkey.
