It's like they have a random bet button.

In #2 hand i dont show much of strenght when a guy raises me.

This is cuz 2 things.

1- Prevents from me to get caped when vilains has a really strong hand
2- you gain nothing when people is blufing you. and i like to people trying to bluff my marginal/ blufing catcher hands.

When i have a note that people is FSDR i tend to donk river.

Awful new under title check

DANG IT

I looks like a noob now.

I'm taking some shots at 2/4 and 3/6 now. The tables are really really bad on Stars. Is it a time of day thing? If I were to judge by these tables I would say limit hold'em is dead if it's this tough at 3/6. There were maybe 2 tables that I would consider good enough to sit at and they had waiting lists. Sigh.

No, LHE is not dead.

I play 100% on PStars and can say that there are still tons of really good games above 3/6. The dynamic of the game changes immensely, by the games are very very beatable...

Sessions like this are fun, ship the FPPs, IMO.

What time of day though? This afternoon it seemed like every 3/6 table was 5 tags/lagtags around one semi-fish. I did manage to find a couple decent games eventually.

You'll learn that most of those tags and lagtags are just morons pretending

So I after waiting for several months for Season 5 of the Wire to come it was finally released on dvd on the 12th. Just got around to watching it today and yesteray. By far my least favorite season. Seemed really out of fit. And the way they killed off a couple of the characters was very anticlimatic

seth i would just call every street because SB cant hurt us with a bdfd hand and his range should be mostly middle cards, so he's drawing ~dead most of the time.

Pocket pairs are good to me tonight. This tagfish is so bad obviously that I should just fold the river. He never bluffs here.

Started playing again (1st time since UIGEA b/c I had $100 left on Stars) about 2 months ago. Getting back into the swing of things. Been moving up pretty quickly. I am at 3/6 now and hope to continue moving up.

08-16-2008 , 03:41 AM
Why do people bluffraise much more often when they river draws?
