action is messed up. but i go broke here all day and twice on sunday. or whatever that saying is.

jakeduke · #3 09-18-2006, 02:28 PM

Send this to BBV. I go broke on all these hands. I hate your minraising in hand 3 btw.

Dunkman · #4 09-18-2006, 02:28 PM

The only one that warrants discussion is hand 2. I would probably let it go when UTG 3-bets on the flop. Once the Q hits on the turn there's no escape. The other hands are BBV.

Jack10 · #5 09-18-2006, 02:28 PM

No, I don't not go broke with any of these, except for maybe the last one, where I probably go broke as well.

Agreed and agreed. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't alone here.

Expand on this?

ye all your doing is posting all your 'bad beats'. In most of these hand s you played badly but would have lost your stack even if you played them well.

the min bet and call of the 3bet in hand 2 nearly made me puke

Actually they're not bad beats and it turned out I was behind when the money went in in all of them; regardless this isn't a whine post. I posted them to see if I should/could have gotten away from any of them.

I tend to agree about hand 2. A flush draw would probably not have 3-bet so I figured AK, KQ, KJ but the UTG limp caused me to discount AK. Is it still a bad call getting better than 2:1?

I seriously doubt that he's 3-betting KJ or worse, or even KQ honestly. I agree that AK is unlikely but not impossible. In addition, you have 88, 33, and K8 (or even the unlikely K3...hey, it's 25nl) that are all ahead. I think he could 3-bet with a flush draw, although in that case he has at least 9 if not 12 outs (with Ahxh.) All in all, I think it's a fold against an unknown here.
