Calling is probably neutral EV vs me, since >50% of my online cash game sessions are drunk/on xanax/ spewing money most of the time.

Anyways, I looked back and had quads...nice laydown.

Nice fold disco. I mean against a nit let's be honest the chances you are good are zero.
09-15-2010 , 09:20 AM
is just a spot where he can have 1 combo to beat u, if he has just 1 combo in his range whether dumb shove or misclick or whatever then you're costing urself a ton of ev. is quite sick, but not sure i could ever fold.
09-15-2010 , 09:25 AM
Yeah but i've never seen a nit overbet bluff jam a spot like that, and he's certainly not playing worse for value there. Like you said unless a misclick. But how often do people really misclick? I think i've maybe overbet misclicked once or twice in over a million hands.

yeah I don't think I've ever misclick shoved, usually I try and shove, miss the all-in tab and CiB
09-15-2010 , 10:01 AM
imo sumyong is bad enough to play the nuts this way, and i highly doubt a 13/10 nit will ever show up here with worse/bluffs, esp this deep.
09-15-2010 , 10:12 AM
It's a crazy fold. But I think its correct vs this guy.
09-15-2010 , 10:53 AM
woah, nice fold.

I don't think I'm ever ever ever folding that, even vs him

Very nice fold imo
09-15-2010 , 12:00 PM
wow i thought you guys were all leveling. Than I realized you guys were 340bb deep, I think it's def a +EV fold, but one I probably can't make in the heat of the moment.
09-15-2010 , 12:20 PM
It doesn't make any sense for him to jamming with nuts though since any hand that can call him either raises if he leads, or bets and at least calls a cr.
09-15-2010 , 12:28 PM
I would have already hit called before I realized I didnt have the nuts.
09-15-2010 , 12:45 PM
folding to 1 combo in poker just cant ever be a good strategy.

Also its not sfobv to me he has T9ss because why in the world would he bet flop and CHECK the turn 3-handed with the lead and a straight flush draw 300bb deep?? Something doesnt make sense in this hand so i instacall and move on.

Ok since you guys are probably all above average thinkers when it comes to game theroy, I want to hear some opinions on a arguments I was having with friends. I think I'm right obv but I'm not 100% sure.

Anyway, I'm in a suicide pool for the NFL season me and 2 other friends decided if one of us win we'll split it 3 ways. For those of you who don't know what a suicide pool, it's basically this, you pick the winner of one NFL game for the week if you win that game you survive to the next week if you lose you're out. Once you picked a team you can no longer pick them again the rest of the season. It goes until there is one standing or if week 17 comes along and multiple people are still alive you chop it.

This is where the discussion comes along. My friends think we should all base our picks based on what the others pick, in otherwords don't put all your eggs in one basket. The situation we were arguing about is let's say team "A" you think has a 70% chance of winning that week and team "B" has a 65% chance of winning. My friends think we should go "A" and "B" to increase the chances of one of us surviving. I argue that both of us taking team "A" would probably be give us the best chance of winning. This arguement was based on 1 week implications only.

What do you think is ideal strat in the situation described? A-A or A-B?

A-B is better. chance of team A losing and both of you being out is way bigger than both team A and B losing, while the chance that even both of your teams survive is still only a littlebit less likely since they're both big favorites (as you described it).
09-15-2010 , 01:03 PM
A-A makes sense, but you're playing for fun and if you all lose that's ****ty.

Jaykay - Yes it can be. I'm not saying it's standard, or common, but if you've never folded to just 1 combo, you need better reads or to play more poker.

right, but the chances of both of us surviving if we go A-A is 70% whereas the other way it's 45.5%. I think the most important strat esp this early in the season is to have as many teams alive as possible.
