Nah, back at Pokerstars, the waiting list dwindled to just Kanu and Sauce playing him.

nobody seems to realize 200-400 NL deuce tripledraw is going, full game with durrr/pat/punting/galfond/benba
02-08-2013 , 05:12 AM
Some realy good action right now
02-08-2013 , 05:16 AM
in a 3b pot durrrr b/3b 99xr flop to 21k (ben raised his 3k bet to 7,2k) with 110bb effective. seems very oldschool/bad?
02-08-2013 , 05:30 AM
Ben taking a brake after taking a beating. -400k vs Tom

Also - sick action 6max 2-7 NL TD

gypsymagi820 finished 2nd in SM for 167k last week and is now playing 5k HU sngs at stars

2-7 NL is so boring to watch
02-08-2013 , 05:42 AM
durrrr vs OMG vs trex are playing 3 handed
02-08-2013 , 05:44 AM
galfond finally did the move I was hoping to see in nosebleed NL triple draw, the "bluff pat".

allin after first draw, durr pats, galfond pats something along the lines of 23477, durr then breaks x(8742), galfond then breaks behind x2347.

they should play some 200/400 NL 5 card draw lol

5 card draw is a pretty terrible poker game, the draws and valuebets arent really linear.

in deuce, if you draw 1 to something good and i draw 2 to something good, you are always a statistical favorite. handreading inherently is based on how many cards someone draws (and what people draw to), so the valuebets are linear.

example, there is 1 potsize bet left after the first draw, durrr draws 2 and galfond draws 1 oop. galfond is going to dark shove everytime because math.

in straight draw poker (single draw) you are realistically either drawing 1, 3, or staying pat. drawing 1 = flushdraw, straight draw, two pair, trips, quads. drawing 3 = buried pair. nobody draws 2 with trips for balance purposes.

the non-linearity between number of cards to draw and actual hand strength in draw makes a lot of valuebetting situations a little murky, and as a result it's not a heavy action game.
