Poker iq is lacking in this thread. We all know Im not as smart as any of you. But my poker iq is beyond everyone except a couple itt. Good thing iq alone cant win in poker because I would be toast.

You play for a "living" and you consistently bet mulitway wet flops where you have very little equity?
I am not going to insult you or call you names as there has been way too much of that lately. I will say what you are advocating here makes little sense, as betting here really isn't even a semibluff - it is basically just a bluff. To the call High Times a fish for checking in this situation is simply silly and not indicative of higher level thinking no matter what you claim.

If the last guy is about to fold, would you stop him and offer to check it down?

Or cotw in the micros is probably a more forsure thing.
You have an extremely high opinion of yourself even though you frequently get everything wrong about a hand. Remember that AQ hand where you to told OP to fold TP2K to a flop min-c/r and tiny turn bet, and when everyone else said call you changed your answer to something like "call is correct but OP should probably fold because he sucks at poker."

You try to act bad-ass all the time, but you don't gain respect by berating others when you aren't actually good at poker yourself. No, I don't care that some other internet player said you were "solid." Your posts are frequently devoid of any logic, and when you disagree with someone you try your hardest to put them down. Remember when you tried to insult me the first time I called you out on your ego problem? You said you "doubted that I played that high (mid-stakes online)" when I did in fact play in and crush those games.

It's even funnier that you try to berate everyone here yet hero-worship limon and Bart Hansen

And then when five different people call you out you then backtrack and say that you're just kidding around and act like we're all buddies or something. No, we're not. There's a reason you were banned and there's a reason no one likes you (aside from maybe having a sarcastic laugh every time you make another dumb post).

It funny that you said all of that. I dont want to insult you and get banned by the mods because you are the class room pet around here. Nobody can prove how good they are here on the forums.

Like I said a highly established 400nl and 600nl and sometimes 1000nl online player said Im a good player. We have become friends away from the table. He is the only guy that can have a conversation with me away from the forums. Sounds like im elite in my eyes.

I give advice for the op, not on what I would do because 90% of the spots discussed in this forum are spots I would never put myself.

People talk loud on the forums but without a keyboard, ****in S-O-F-T

So very this. Even though I realize that the crazy way they play the game makes for huge variance, I feel like such a loser when I can't even beat these droolers.

Part of why I loved that big hand I won with a TP of 8s was that I was proud of myself for the reads, but most of it was that most of those guys wouldn't look at it as good reads, but of justification of "any two can win!" Almost felt like I was throwing their suckouts back in their faces...

1/2 (now it's 2/3 at my home casino which actually means a lot) is where I sit to wait for 3/5 and sit to chill after 3/5. At one point I was losing $100 per hour while thinking It's not a real session

Also CAZ has the best poker room food in the country served at the table. As well they should because a plate of fried rice frequently costs me $107.

Just for what its worth Pokahblows, cbetting that flop Q89 flop is usually going to be pretty awful.

Yea. My overall poker winrate would be a lot higher if I hadn't played a single 1/2 session in the last 3 years. I would guess I'm stuck 4-5k in 1/2 from playing and lighting money on fire while I wait for a seat.

Also fwiw I have broken down and threw like 100 bucks on carbon poker for PLO. I wanna learn and don't want to pay the price live.

I was going to post a CAPWM, but then I realized I couldn't for three very good reasons.

1: My crappy phone won't email a pic, just send it as a text.
2: Even though the rack of ribs has been marinating since Friday and is now ready for the grill, it went from 75 degrees yesterday to snowing today, so grilling no fun

and 3: Most importantly, I remembered that these have to be pre-approved by the mods now. I'd hate to have APD lock it up just as the internal temp was coming up.

From NY. Can find me in Borgata 5/10. Don't get to play as much anymore, but would be there at a moment's notice for you.
04-02-2012 , 08:42 PM
5/10 game sucks at borgata. 2 game at the most. They 2/5 is the best structure in the country. They be having like 10 tables running.

When ever I get my bankroll to 20k ill take a trip to the borgata. For like 2 weeks, I can't wait to go back to AC.

I went to the 40/40 club had vip, was bringing all the bitches back there. They was saying "Oh you from cali, where yo hotel at"

****ed some bitch from new york when I was there,"good times".

Only reason I would lock it up is because you insult my pork shoulder with your nonsense. I will however let it slide if you were to bring me some on Friday!

Lol, in the games I play in every day. On a board that runs off A784j, I would expect to get raised on the flop by any of the flopped 2 pair combos, as villains would consider their hand vulnerable. I would expect villains with A4 to just call down. So if I river two pair holding AJ, and I get raised, I am almost always going to see a hand better than 2 pair. And given that the straight came in on the turn, I probably would not even face a raise from a set from most players, so a raise on that board would be the straight the vast majority of the time.

This is the way my games play on the river, both at 1/2 and 2/5. Definitely very nut peddler-ish.

My 1/3 and 2/5 are similar for about 40% of my villains. Another 25% *can* be hyper aggro here. The rest...depends on how the mood strikes them.

At any given table, I can usually name 2-3 people that I will never call a river raise from without something damn close to the nuts.
