uHappy Weekend Thread II: A whole new world

EMc · #1 09-29-2006, 12:07 AM

N00bs and rubes, NL is a game where we can be playing for stacks on any given hand. You should find within this thread various methods of getting your stack in the middle. Open to all, post your awesomeness here. Enjoy!

Requirements for posting hands in this thread:

1. Hero believes he played the hand well.
2. HERO MUST WIN AT LEAST 80 bb's.
3. Post only converted hands and remember to post results.
4. It's also very nice of you if you can take the results out of white, so we don't have to highlight to see them.
5. If it's not obvious why you played the hand the way you did, give a quick reasoning.

So, if you play a hand that qualifies over the weekend, post it here and share the joy. Weekend starts now and runs through Sunday night.

Lets have some of the vets show the uNL noobs how its done, and have the n00bs show make us proud.

Let us gogogogogo!

No hand history, so from memory, I present: HOW TO COOLER A DONK.

Preflop: Hero is Button with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

UTG calls, CO calls, Hero calls, SB folds, BB checks.

Not standard, but my image wasn't awesome at that time, so I figured I'd limp for set value.

Flop (($1.10): 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

UTG bets $0.25, CO calls, Hero calls.

LOLMINBETS. I'm probably ahead here.

Turn ($1.85): 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG bets $0.25, CO raises to $0.50, Hero calls while chanting "pair the board, pair the board", UTG calls.

River ($3.35): 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

UTG checks, CO checks, Hero bets $2.50, UTG raises pot, CO folds, Hero shoves, UTG calls and shows 65o.

Dude! Lead the river and sandwich some of CO's money in there for me please? Oh, and don't go broke in an unraised pot and stuff.

Dunkman · #9 09-29-2006, 01:15 PM

Mr. Wasicka, this is how you play an OESFD against a donk.

(oh yeah, I usually play nl50 at stars, but was at party clearing my bonus. I was at nl25 because a) party's software tilts me sometimes and b) I was all dopey on cold medicine. I thought stars was fishy...wow...as you can see from this hand, and my stack, this was a good table.)
