so you think that jamming over a raise 200bb deep on a dry board doesn't look strong? AQ is prolly the bottom of your range here.

Yeah, basically what other's said. Being that it's a 3bet pot and you're over 200BBs deep does give more rationale to calling the flop raise anyway. But I can see where Howie is coming from in that I used to be the type to raise anyway knowing that some guys can't fold any Q's there.

Big props to mattthemaster for telling me what a sick killer lag he is and how he runs over nits like me and blah blah blah and then insta-leaving the table once it breaks to HU and I win one hand from him. REPRESENT bro.
lol, this made me laugh, I actually had some fun banter today with this guy named Rillar... his trash talk is A+ 3rd grade level.

I really really hate the fish that love hitting and running you HU when you try and start tables.

One guy did it like 5 times tonight on 1/2 euro tables. First couple times I don't realize what he's doing and he hits and runs me for like $30 each time by being an aggrotard and me missing everything. The 3rd or 4th time he comes back I've got him figured out and 3bet 88 against him the first hand v his 75bb stack and he ships J9o and wins. Plays one hand and leaves obv. So I start another euro table in hopes of getting him to sit back in against me and it works. Only now some of the regs have figured out this guy is an idiot and sit in immediately and he leaves because apparently he just likes to hit and run you HU.

Oh Blackize, you're too nice to be treated like dirt at the tables



Oh, hey guys, I just thought of something again today. I noticed some guy sitting on multiple tables of mine playing a 50BB stack on all of them and doing so aggressively (high 3bet %). Although his preflop reraises were small, what are the positives and negatives to playing 50BB stacks anyway? I understand the part of it not being as profitable long term against worse players that have over 100+BB stacks.
04-07-2010 , 02:37 AM
games right now seem worse than they've been in like a month. pretty lame when you are on a messed up sleep schedule.
lol oh and redargoe just logged on so he's gonna take the last seat in like every game,

boo.

I'm kinda glad he's been gone the last few days (maybe recovering mentally or on prior suicide watch), but I find it funny his first session back is like at nearly 3 am in the morning. Talk about a messed up sleep schedule is right.


Also, what do you guys feel about eating something in the middle of a session? Food is said to be a natural sedative, but to me I think it kind of wakes me up and somewhat kick starts me up again during a session?

I've seen a few people try to do this here and there (playing 50bb with super aggression). It gets really easy to combat if they are 3 betting that light with that stack size. calling ip to ship over cbets with big hands and good suited hands that flop equity, along with shipping pocket pairs over their wide 3 bets gets really profitable if they play that way.

I remember when krissyb tried to do this for like 2 sessions (the one thats usually super nitty) it was really funny.

Depends a lot on how much food and what kind. Like I can snack on stuff like beef jerky while playing and keep my energy level up but I definitely couldn't eat a meal and maintain focus.

50bb deep is great to 4b a lot with a merged range, either against people who don't adjust their 3bet% to your stack, or over the top (like D opens, SB 3bets, jam that pair of 7s of yours from the BB, make money).

However most of the guys who play with 50bb stacks are either 12/10 nits or total spewtards that will 3b much too much regarding their stack. Either ignore them or 4b the hell outt'em.

I guess wrong thread?
however I'm sure you know in SSNL-MSNL this is snap fold, care to explain why the small turn bet/tough decision here?
04-07-2010 , 06:47 AM
BB is a good SSNL reg. I know he is a very good HU SSNL-MSNL reg.

Stats are at 35/25, but I played him 50+ hands while starting the table where we both played like 80/70 so this is probably skewed.

We had some medium-big pots and I know for sure he is capable of bluff raising flops with bd draws/overcards, especially deep and IP.

I'd just fold the flop. River might be a time for a sexy hero call though.
