What percentage of your opponents are usually sitting 1000bb deep?
thats where everything starts, they 3bet because they dont want every fish calling and cracking their aces, now its where the magic starts when i 4bet they really dont 5bet much, they wanna see a safe flop.
because they know me i always want to GII with a hand like JT89 against aces, pre
just a quick example, 5/5 game couple days ago, we playing 6handed at midnight, everyone knows everyone very very good like a homegame
then a random guy came, he was surely pretty new to the game, asked how much he can buy in, there was no limit, so he sat down with 200 the min buy in a friend stacked him pretty fast and i asked him again 200?
he asked me how much i have, at that time i was around 6k deep, he went to the cashier and came back with 10k on the table. at that time everyone felt what
is gonna happen
i isolate him got him for a 10k pot where he raised me with naked aces on a T57 flop, i reraise too gii with 2pair a flush and straight draw, he called me down with his aces, where i river the nuts
and then my friend got him for the rest of his stack where he had aces again
these things happen everyday at my local casino. you can be stuck pretty hard and then boom you up a yearly salary.
if i play poker im there to make money, limping is nothing for me, i wanna play big pots with bigmoney on the line.
yes sure sometimes, you gonna hate life for that, espacially if you are in a freaking downswing where the universe want to tell you something.
but there is no reason to play poker except for money, im just not playing for fun or having a good night.
when i play, i play for stacks.
thats the way i am, probably not that honorable, but as you all know
"a dollar won is twice as sweet as a dollar earned"
