You should've folded it pre-flop. Save the $5.

Do you think he bluffs his missed FD on the river if we check?

Some how our completing range shouldn't be the whole deck. Positional win rates are a thing.

Never. Mayb for bad players, but gd players shd never b folding sb if they think they can get in for limpz imo.
That’s the biggest mistake I see from cash game players.

I’ve seen people show cards looking for both outcomes fairly equally. without many instances of occurrence from the same person, it’s practically impossible to associate the action to one desired outcome or the other.

100% this. If BS is playing 94o, his SB complete range is basically all hands, less hands he would raise. The amount of moneys wasted is probably lots.

Pretty much the thinking of players pre online databases.

Nearly everyone has a negative win rate positionally from the blinds. Your forced to put money in oop with garbage hands.
Thinking you do better by completing your entire range is egotistical, folly and a leak.

Ur right. Mayb im just thinking everyone is as gd as I am. I prob wdnt advise all to complete from sb, but def the ones winning at a gd clip.

Ur right, my range is just about the entire deck when I’m getting 5to1+ in sb. I’d b able to navigate without much issue post flop.

Yeah it’s gonna b a lot of check/fold post, but I know how many big posts I’ve won by completing (w less than marginal hands) from the sb. It’s not even close. Seriously, it’s not.

Gd to disagree on this one. It’s what makes poker, poker.

This is why I say BS' table selection is so good. These villains are so bad, he can make egregious mistakes and still win.

Keep track of the next 1k hands or so of weak offsuit 5 gappers you complete with from the small blind and see if you've won or lost money doing it. Most times you're just going to lose an extra half a blind when you do complete and those will add up. Sometimes you'll win a little. Sometimes you'll win a lot when you make a boat. But it's hard to make a lot of money with 94os when you hit two pair or even trips because people don't go broke with one pair often enough. And you'll always be at risk of being counterfeited or being outkicked or being dominated, never the reverse with those hands. Completing with 94os from the small blind is sooo bad on so many levels.

It appears your dry trimming which I do as well.
I do 6-10 days hanging depending on temp, RH and air flow then Mason jars with humidity packs for the cure.

I think completely sb with 94o is burning money.

Even though you are essentially getting 8-1 on your money ($3 to win $25) - I'm not sure you win 1/8 with that hand. Even with further implied odds you getting a little better but there is also reverse implied odds on stronger 9x hands that get you in trouble.

It's probably close, but I'd fold pre.

See this is the problem. You guys keep basing your decisions off your poker playing ability. BS does things you ain’t even know are possible. This thread is for positive vibez only. If you have anything negative to say please leave and come back in 25 days when the weed is dry.

Fair enough. I don't play these hands because I know I couldn't play them profitably over the long run.

I'll give an example from back around 2009 or 2010. An unknown guy to me at the time claimed on 2+2 that he could keep his VPIP above 55% and show a profit playing live 1/2. I thought it was impossible but he ended up showing me otherwise. He just played so much better postflop than his competition.

Bought a 10hi straight flush today for $800. Had to sweat it for 45mins, but wasn’t too worried. One thousand dollars high hands using both cards every hour. To all the other 7 tables going, I challenge u to beat it.
They didn’t. +$200.

+770
4 sesh win streak.

Oh my, not much of a sweat I think. Something like 150 hands total?
