Default $109s: Curtains hand, Sensing the trap?

Well done losing the minimum on this one. While it might seem funny at first, I honestly believe this should be the standard play in situations like these. Just one of the many upsides of playing one-too-many tables.


PartyPoker $109 Speed Tournament, Big Blind is t100 (6 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1560)
UTG+1 (t1610)
CO (t1550)
Button (t10110)
Hero (t2020)
BB (t3150)

Preflop: Hero is in SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, <font color="gray">UTG+1 folds</font>, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to t200</font>, BB calls t150

Flop: (t500) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)

Edit: Open folding is obviously good because of reverse implied odds of hitting the 2nd best straight on the turn.

Blinds are 100. Curtains miniraises? Then BB calls 150? The hand history is messed up.

People who don't understand plays like this will never do well in SNGs. This is beyond the game, and this is why Curtains crushes all those who come before him.

no it isnt. This isnt directed at you, but im going to say it now. WE SEE 2132981 OF THESE HANDS A DAY. THE CONVERTER "MESSES UP" RAISES FROM THE SB. HE RAISED 200 CHIPS, AND ALREADY HAD HIS 50 IN THE POT. THAT MAKES IT 250 TOTAL CHIPS. (150 TO THE BB).

Capital letters makes me feel better. I hate working with little kids...for the record.

Oh, and i edited my first response to keep from ruining this perfectly good post.

What's going on?

Some noob comes along, and he has all the HH of curtains, and he posts only the totally retarded hands?

Some kind of agitprop campaign, obviously. [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Im really confused, but I suspect this is when my mass disconnection happened. It happened on this date when my dad was over, I remember. I won a ton that day anyway, so it didnt bug me much, but had some really weird technical problems for like 3 minutes, where I was at the screen, but it began every hand with "sitting out", even when I clicked on "I am back" in the meantime.

Sorry I sent you HHs from the day where I had a string of technical problems!!! I figured it was a good day since I won a lot that day, totally forgot about this stuff [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

BTW Epilog, do you get some sick sense of pleasure posting these hands on 2+2? I mean, it's obvious that Curtains disconnected with this action...

They're funny though, so keep posting them [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
