HAR HAR HAR

Today I open in a $3/6 game to $18, get one caller, and some ****** in the SB squeezes to $125, and I am like "Oh you have TT or JJ, guess I can just shove QQ" then he tanks all the way down before calling with his TT

Brilliant ****ing thought process ******

I may not be cut out for this game because the mere fact that such stupidity exists in the gene pool just tilts me beyond measure, and that was even before the flop came ten-****ing high

Thanks guys!

Like they say, a woman becomes a mother when she gets pregnant, whereas a man becomes a father when the child is born. That's pretty much how I feel. I didn't think too much about the whole thing until now, figured it would work out. Around two days after she was born I started to realize that small creature really was my child and now I'm just immensly happy and filled with joy!

Haha yeah I might show up in the life thread for some baby wars.

This one has been bothering me all session:

Bigger on the turn for sure, almost pot, like what is he folding that he called the flop with?

wowow congrats lobster!

I'm sorry I don't know if strat is allowed at cheese (wtf?!) thread, but this isn't really worth an own thread.


Is it normal to stack off here at 6max? Villain is 23/18 after around 80 hands and I've 3bet him twice earlier in blind battle already. I haven't really played any 6max in last 4 months so I feel very rusty. :P

I'm guessing that I was a donk and I should be just folding when he makes it 30bb? What about if he makes it 25-26bb, are you then more inclined to shove?

Stacks:
UTG ($149.50)
CO ($101.70)
BTN ($98.50)
SB ($103.40)
Hero ($106.50)

Pre-Flop: ($1.50, 5 players) Hero is BB 10 10
3 folds, SB raises to $4, Hero raises to $12, SB raises to $30, Hero goes all-in $106.50

In that situation I probably wouldn't 3-bet unless I had a read that he will start flatting loosely when he becomes frustrated (some will disagree with this), or I thought he was going to 4-bet wide/bluff. If I did 3-bet it would be to stack off preflop if he 4-bet, otherwise just flat and keep 3-betting speculative hands.

so you b/c river? how is that any good??

Given no reads, I don't see how betting ~62ish on the turn and shoving the river isn't clearly the best play (maybe even raise the flop to like 36). At that point the pot is too big to put him on something like AJ/QJ (these are the only 2 hands we are worried about) to c/f the river. I could be convinced otherwise with decent reads. I don't know if there's anything that he would call a smaller bet with but fold to a shove... something to think about I guess. I'm not even going to get into your range and balancing when you check this river.

And you miss too much value by donking this flop.

QFLOL.

I do like making turn a bit bigger for an easier shove on river. I was thinking 55 but 62 sounds good as well :-D.

This is BVB, I don't see anything wrong with how he played it.

(all of what you said is true I just think as described we can assume he meets all these criteria - that being said there's nothing wrong with flatting either)

One time bump for today. I go to get the ole noggin' shaved @ 330pm MST, but can take donations thru the rest of the calendar year. $210 of my $500 goal in so far!

is robin hood men in tights as funny as i think it is?

jesus just found my plo hands, down 5k in equity playing .5/1 and some 1/2 in the last 10k hands on my desktop...wonder what my eq difference is on my laptop. i'm also playing horribly bad postflop and bleeding money (non sd winnings are ----- ALOT). disgusting

join more plo tourneys imo

Grats DL
