Let me get everyone's opinion here on this great story I am about to tell:

So I play with this guy a lot, and we are friends off the felt. We stake each other loan each other money and what not, and when we are on the table we don't try to mix it up to much unless you know it has to be done. However here is the hand playing 1-2 cash. I limp UTG +1 with Q10 and my friend is on my immediate left and makes it 10 to go 4 players call to me so when it get's back to me of course I call because who's gonna fold for 10 more into a 43 pot? If you say you are or yes you would quit reading now because you aren't capable of understanding poker to be reading my work. Anyways flop comes down J93 and I am first to act and I check it to my friend, and he bets 26 making the pot now 79 and the guy on the button calls which makes the pot 95 and I am like got to call 26 into that pot right? Once again if you don't know the answer get out of the story. Anyways I call the bet and the pot is now at 105 the turn comes ace and I check to my friend and he goes all in for right around 33 making the pot about 140ish, the guy on the button folds to me, and I tank for a while knowing that I don't want to bust my friend but knowing that I am getting 4 to 1 on a call. I ask him to show me a card and at first he refuses which makes me tilt a little because I am trying to find a way not to call him, and eventually after giving him the idea I am going to call him no matter what he shows me a J and I am like wow um Q could be good, so I'd have 3 Q's 4 9's 4 K's theoretically speaking in a perfect scenario, and I am getting a little better than 4 to 1 on a call. What would you do?

Theory: there is a giant idiot magnet hidden somewhere in the deep catacombs below BBV.

Someone make a short film where Harrison Ford and Jimmy Fricke fight through zombies to destroy it and save us all.

this thread tilts me to death. You must be dabeear right?
07-16-2009 , 05:44 PM
Ummm... this situation is super marginal. Fold if you think it's +EV with your friendship. If you think your friend needs the money DONT SIT NEXT TO HIM IN A 1/2 CASH GAME!!

And if you're deep, QT is very playable in most 1/2 cash games imo.
07-16-2009 , 06:14 PM
don't ask him 2 see a card if your gonna call jeez. Just snappily call if you think you have pot odds
07-16-2009 , 06:18 PM
Anyone who unironically uses the phrase "on the felt" to describe a poker game is no friend of mine.

When you win a pot do you say "Ship it to the Boss"?

I think it was the limping part that was upsetting.

Meh limping in a live full ring game where people are going to pay you off no matter what and are not going to fold to raises no matter what there is nothing wrong with it, especially from EP.

Need him to show a card to make it look good, got it. You want your friend to win.

Perfect, now you can fold, saying your kicker is no good or whatever.

wat?


You goad your friend into showing you a card so you can fold, and when he does, you find out you have extra outs that might be good, so now you want to call?????

lolololol

Depending on the game...limping QT utg is not bad you will just blend in with all the other passive fish who limp and two cards above 4, esp if opponents are willing to go brok in limped pots...raising is bad becuase your always OOP, but folding could easily miss out on money if you have decent post flop abilities and can lay down hands when you are beat....
07-17-2009 , 02:38 AM
i'm absolutely bored as hell so i decided to take the words of your story and rearrange them to make a better story. enjoy




theoretically speaking in a perfect scenario, would you do this guy? I play with it a lot, and when i am about to go limp he comes in and we bust. you would quit reading now because you aren't capable of understanding my work. we are friends, but we don't try to mix it up to much unless we know it has to be done.

at first he refuses which makes me tilt a little because I am trying to show it to him no matter what and he shows me a button and I am like "um, wow it could be good to check, knowing i have a tank."

Once again if you don't know the story, eventually of course I'd be going into my friend. i want to.

here he like "don't"

"what? answer me and get the button out of you"

anyways, knowing for a while that my friend is on my back makes me get's off.

after giving him the idea, "friend, i am getting off"

because who's gonna call my friend now? I am first to act

"i am making the pot and If you say yes, my friend, you are on my immediate left on the table with the Q10 pot and what not"

however, playing on the felt reading the stake makes the pot check and I goes to call 33 players, making me fold for pot and money.

"so i am getting a little better, right?" i ask.

right around 10, 79 more players come on the guy when i loan 140ish and UTG+1 pot to the guy

"Anyways i bet that i flop down on him for cash."

we poker each other, Ace and all making it on my hand, which folds to the guy for 1-2 cash.

i find a way not to call the guy a card.

43+26=79+26=95+26=105? Ok.
