Wow that reg ran like Jesus against you... Any reason you didn't want to 4bet bluff the AQ against him if he's folding so often?

Also lol at that last hand. He played that so badly.. like If you have any other hand, you probably survive. It's like he didn't even want you to continue with worse OTT.

cbetting flop that size with KJ seems bad

I thought it was too good a hand to turn it into a bluff against him and it would really weaken my oop calling range, which isn't wide anyway, if I started bluffing with it. That isn't to say I won't 4bet bluff with it against certain opponnets though.

What sizing would you recommend?

Hello rungood my old friend
I've come to talk to you again...





1) There was a single table of FR running so I added it to my 6max tables. Clearly still a house player at FR

4) Should I be overbetting at any point here? It's obvious villain has an ace but I'm wondering if he can find a fold if I overshove the river.

Nice session Husker ..... bet that felt good

Yeah it did. Just heard Rangers are signing Joey Barton though so that's put a dampener on my day. He's mental ffs.

I mean, Joey Barton rofl. Just why?

Either check or bet a size you bet your whole range for, this is close to the first combo we want to check on this flop aside from KK

It's bizarre as Warburtons signing policy is all about young hungry players. No idea what this is about but .....in Warburton we trust 😀

It's just bizarre lol. Barton is such a liability. He must be cheap.

He's Burnley's player of the year and is in the Championship team of the year.....but it's still weird. He's a Celtic fan, he is, or was, mental and he's a lot older than any other Warburton signing.

In Warburton we trust though

That K3s hand haha! You're the reg I thought you were, good luck!

I was hoping no one from my games had found this thread

I've seen you on the tables a fair bit recently. How are you getting on?

Agreed. When I see that flop, I just think "KK is a check, QQ is a check, KJ is a check, QJs is a check, TT is a check, weak Ax are checks". Just about everything else can bet half pot.

Haha maybe he changed. I havent seen him in a while. I just remember the idiot from Marseille and QPR lol.

If he signs I wonder if he'll give interviews in a Scottish accent

Damn... I was rooting for you till I found out you were a Rangers fan

Ah well, cool thread so subbed anyway and GL!

If it helps, I also support my local junior team. So just think of me as an Irvine Meadow fan

Didn't realise I'd I'd opened a 50nl table and I thought I was calling a min open rather than a limp

Lesson for the night, fold AJ and QQ preflop

Here's the graph for the night. Kinda disappointed it all ended with a losing session although I can take some solace from the fact that I was due some Sklansky bucks.

GG FTP

H4 AQs is a bit too much all over the place (I know you said it's not std line), think turn plays better as a bet for obv reasons, or we could xr vs some if he is really stabby when checked to plus a station, but yeah I prefer a turnbet vs 95% of playerpool. As played tho just xc river, don't like this donkbet at all.

GL moving onwards from FTP man, it'll be interesting!

GG FTP, think that was the first site I played for real money on and I played most of my volume there pre BF.

You gonna play on AmayaStars or you venturing elsewhere?

Bc i love the Fish poster...hope its not urs and up for re-use

1) Must raise, not saying this bc of results.

3) Raise flop on that texture, calldown is fine as well, on that river meh, but not as bad as it looks when he tables 78

4) Logically not sound reasoning, overestimating spazz, levelling urself too much. Just c/c

5) brilliant, well done, bad result

6) u miss a ton of value there by checking rvr. half pot

Joined FTP the last 2 months just to grind out the first deposit bonus before it merged. Haven't been playing particularly well because it's been like 95% play 5% study but it was still a good decision for my bankroll . It's been surprisingly fishy, sad to see it go.

nice
