Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
raise this flop. be aggressive, be, be aggressive.
call this turn. why are you pushing with just a low and a crappy high. try to sucker people in now that you have an unconfterfeitable low. this isnt so much of a cooler as a hand that you played poorly. |

Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
Why would you ever bet that flop with Ace high, and a gutshot for a sucker straight???????
Also, top pair and nut low usually seem like a good hand to me. |

u raise PF and checked to you. you hit low 50% of time. take the lead and take it down there. this is WT with checking.

Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
More aggressive on flop, less agressive on turn. Simply because you want second best hands like 24,25,34 flush draws and straight draws sticking around for a bit longer. The pot is tiny and you have no decent high outs so you don't gain much by pushing.

The middle guy dropped out, as I thought he would... and I was suprised to see another A23x in there. I expected to quarter a 23xx hand playing it fast on the turn.

Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
I think you're overestimating how often someone has a 23xx hand.
Also, there are two flush draws and a couple of straight draws out there, and the pot is tiny. They'll have draws far more often than 23xx that you can make some money from if you play it a bit slower. |

Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
Also I'll add that pushing nut hands into small pots is generally a bad idea, because you'll almost never do it on a bluff or semibluff. While it may be profitable in the short term or at low stakes, if you're up against decent NLO8 players (such as the 200s), you'll quickly become very readable and lose a large portion of your profits. It's far better to develop solid lines now than have to change your strategy when you move up stakes.

Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
IMHO, AQ23 is slightly better than A234 because of the times you pair your ace, and, it's very rare that A23 gets counterfeited.

Re: Pretty obvious cooler right?
Just go all-in pre-flop and see what happens.
NLO8 is the stupidest game in the history of the world. |
