Stacking off with the fif nuts? LOL

some will never learn

This used to be my favorite forum thread on the internet, now I don't even know why I check it.

Out of interest, what other forums are people using for good PLO strategy?

LOL, fair point. Should have known better.

Hello all, I need to vent about how pathetic nit small stakes games , seems this is the right place.

Its ridiculous how you guys are ruining the game playing so nit. I say ''you'', because basically, everyone at small stakes is a ****ing nit on Stars nowadays. You cbet only 50%... you fold everything at river. You never ever make a thin value bet...

Now, here is the problem. If you only bet nuts on the river, how I will raise bluff ?

This is only at 1/2 and 0.5/1. Playing 2/5, I see GOOD players doing dumb stuff, ******ed calls, stupid bets...Everyone there plays more hands, more spots and theres money flying. At 0.5/1, its a locked game, nobody does nothing, because you are ruining the game, no money flying at 0.5/1.

Not only its boring, but the biggest issue is, you are making the fishs play nit too. You check behind AKT5cc on Q72cc... not only very nit, but a bad play, because its a good board to cbet a bluff. the right play is cbet/raise AKT5cc, because other guy should raise a bluff on Q72, but if you don't cbet the best hand to cbet, other guy won't bluff, so nobody does anything... you locked up the game !!!!! no money, its locked !!!!

Another example about how you are ''locking'' the game, making it locked up.

Example: I have a c/r range on river on a board T92r 4, 6x. Sometimes value, sometimes bluffs. But if you never ever bet a non-nut hand on river, I can't have a c/r range because you never bet 1010 here. You should bet/call AA sometimes, bet to induce villain bluff with QQJ7...

Im tired about how nit this games are...The folds I have to make... so many times I fold middle sets... no joke, I cbet/fold middle sets all day .

What make really pissed is when Im ready to call river, and actually kinda happy to see villain betting (because its a good spot to bluff) and they check back a better hand than mine! Or when Im making a very standard value bet and they NEVER call with worse... Now I learned, only bluff vs this idiots, and never ever thin value bet.

RESUME:

Because you are a nit, I can't have fun playing poker at small stakes online. Thats boring !!

You don't really seem to understand how poker works. If you think the pool is playing too tight, you can bet or raise in every single spot and get max credit for having the nuts, thus exploit the nits completely, win a tonne of money, and have fun bluffing with 9 high like a boss every single hand :-)

If the small stakes are too nitty, move up to midstakes then.

good for him, sounds like he already solved PLO

Mr. 100, it seems like you lack logic. Poker isn't the game for you. Give up.

Personally, I'd rather be a nit than doing stupid stuff at the poker tables in order to be considered a cool, aggressive player.

+1

Why play micro if the GOOD players at PLO500 do "dumb stuff, ******ed calls, stupid bets" etc all the time.

220 down already maybe I should start playing with brm.
but don't be afraid I wont

BRM is so Feb 17, I'm over that.

easy fold otr, ask anyone here

Why you think I don't understand how poker works ?

Im trying to do exatcly what you say, but thats not fun. I didn't say 0.5/1 was a hard game, I just said thats not fun. I prefer play poker games that are more agressive .

I will, but need more money!

Why I lack logic ? Poker doens't match well with my personality, but this game is easy with many previsible nits, best way to make easy money without much effort. Why give up ?

By the way, Im $50000 up on 0.5/1 since last year, I stand what I say: boring game full of nits.

Nice hand. Thats what Im talking about. Nits at 0.5/1 never do this bet/folds.

I imagine button is very good player, he rep AA very well .
