Sorry, I assumed this thread was all Pineapple for some reason.

But this would be for Pineapple, unfortunately that is the only variant I have played.

You could try OFC calc https://nutsbet.net/calculator?lang=en
To be honest I doubt that it's always right, but it's better for newbie then nothing.
BTW I never use it by myself, just saw some results posted.

any general advice for 3 way play? i'm not aware of any simulators that cover it, right?

also

KQ5hhh 4x 9x

if this was all rainbow i assume you lay it similar to

Q
K9
45

do the three hearts change that? thx!

Thanks, I'll check that out.

Yeti,

OOP I play

X
49
KQ5hhh

The only other set I would go for is

Q
K4
95

I play K4 in the middle so I can go for 2 pairs from 22-88 if I brick K

thx guys, yea i def normally go K4/92 for example, but could see the connectedness swaying me to throw down K9/45 (which is probably wrong)

It probably doesn't belong here, but i don't know where to ask.

Does anybody know where I can find OFC Pineapple coaching?

Thanks

I'm far from being an OFC expert but I have played a fair bit so I'll share my humble opinion.

No way I can see putting a kicker with the trips in pineapple. Maybe in regular I can see an argument but in pineapple, why would you want to prevent yourself from putting a dealt pair on a later street in the bottom to complete the full house? The 2 could be any card, and I wouldn't set it in the bottom. If it's a Q or K and you're playing with fantasyland, but it up top. 333/A/Q is very strong starting with QQ+ fantasyland.

I tend to set as:

Q96ccc
Seems fine to me. Even if the 7h were the 8h, I don't think you could set it any other way in pineapple.

How would you set the following pull?

Opponent has 55J42

Ks 10s 8d
I probably put the K up top if we're playing with fantasyland. I grudgingly put the T in the middle just because I don't want to bust up my flush draw in the bottom, and I want to leave myself the chance to play a dealt pair up top if given the opportunity, especially for fantasyland. Maybe someone more experienced than I would say to put the T up top. I dunno know.

The reason I would consider putting the 2 kicker at the bottom is because if I pull 99 for example, I would place it in the middle and not the back to strengthen my middle and increase my FL chance.

Idk, maybe theres not much in it, I tend to mix it up with my sets in this situation but I can't seem work out whats +EV

Obviously any high card such as K/Q or even J would be placed up top.

Besides other things when you have so low set like 333 in the bot it's very important to put 2 in the middle to have the possibility of 222.

1k Giveaway in OFCAddict Twitch Stream!

Hello Everyone, I’ve been playing OFC for less than one year and got extremely addicted from the very first hand I played. I’ve played a lot of players including some well-known pros such as Robert Mizrachi, Michael Mizrachi, Jon Turner, Natasha Barbour, and Christoph Haller, amongst others. For every month of streaming all the donations that I receive will be added to $1000 that I will be giving away. The number one donator will have an opportunity to play an OFC race to 200 points against me. If he wins the race he will win my $1000 plus all the donations of the month! If he loses the race, then 60% of the total (all the donations plus my 1k) will carry over for the next month.

My first stream will be held on Monday, August 15, 5PM MDT. Come follow me on https://www.twitch.tv/ofcaddict

Add me on pineapple app @relaxursoul

Regards,
Fernando Rosas

Yes, 3-max is available. Thank you for suggestions I need to work hard on promotion lol. Also, the 100 years is pretty much a privilege where top 3 donators can play against me for all my donations plus 1k and settle losses after 100 years!

It looks like you make short break during your 2h stream? Anyway twitch split it into two parts and only the last one (35 min long) is available by default. And so there is no Michael Phelps for example or at least you didn't mention his nickname

So I hope you continue to repost all parts to youtube. Thanks for your first stream posted there.

BTW it looks that you play also Spicy Pineapple from time to time, it's even more interesting for me as it's available for android.

As nobody answered I would despite I played progressive (SNG) only once by misclick on tonybet.
AFAIK besides tonybet much more progressive pineapple is played on Chinese Lianzhong.com, for registration you should use some affiliate for example http://asia-poker.com/en/online-poker/lianzhong-poker/

I think you should always show more details here, at least your discard even if you think it's irrelevant.

Don't know for sure best choise but I would put QQ on top.

You could check this stage of pineapple hand in calculator like https://www.openfacesolutions.com/ but as it's on sale now I am not sure it's working. Probably you still could try for free by 2 weeks trial.
