yea ob folding is fine in situations like that. nice job anyway.

one last gogogo for david, hope to come home from work to still be railing you for HU
10-03-2010 , 06:33 PM
I've just thought, I have no idea if I can even get in to rail tomorrow. Does anyone actually know if it's possible? I am a Grovenor Casino Member if that helps.

<EDIT> Apparently it is open to the general Public, so I'm 75% sure I'm going to go up. Should be worth a laugh.

I think the K on the turn changes my hand value by a huge amount. As I said, even tho' it was only the 5th hand, I had villain as an enormous LAG. Sure he could have flopped a set, but his flop raise I read as being Ax with a good chance of it being 2-pair, but not so much that I don't call his min-raise. I was thinking that the K changes my hand from a 70-75% favorite to 97%+, and I was trying to bet-size not too big so he wouldn't fold, and hoping that he would raise to all-in.

When I went over the weekend you could easily get into the area, but the playing area was cordoned off. I couldn't see the ME players from where I were and i didn't feel like I wanted to stand around there all day so i'm not sure if I would have been allowed down where they played. It seemed as a lot of players were walking around in there whi weren't playing so I don't know. Also, I would expect them to expect a rail for the final table.

fwiw I had a pretty clear view of the high roller event and saw all the stars and almost bumped into barry greenstein.

Thanks AE, I just called the Victoria Casino, and it's not an issue. Pretty sure I'm gonna go up tomorrow. It should be fun. Maybe I'll even learn how to play poker?

If you read him as having ax on the flop then 3b is good aienc because you do not want a club hitting on the turn and losing the oppurtunity of stacking him, calling is only good if you think his range is dominated by air and that he will spew off on later streets

and I just think you are so rarely beat on that board, as theres only two sets and two discounted 2pairs.
10-03-2010 , 07:05 PM
what does ainec mean? I can't find it on urban dictionary
10-03-2010 , 07:08 PM

Thanks for your replies. You're probably right about the 3-bet. I think not 3-betting may be one of my leaks.

Sheeprustler: aienc = misspelling of ainec = "and it's not even close". thats maybe why you couldn't find it

Yeah, but I tried to be humourous as well, I failed, but that's not the point..

The Indian conference actually comes up first on google...

And just for fun, this is the hand that the villain in the other hand went out on. And this was while dealing hand for hand on the bubble ...

At this point I'm pretty sure I'm going.
