He was repping busted fd and hoping you'd call with any pair, but dumb because anything you value the flop and turn with is probably equel to or ahead of AJ.

you should be betting the turn though nomeansno

Tx, any pocket pair he 3bet, he also continues with worse hand and in general just makes you difficult to play against. ur rarely going to get 3bet on this board texture also.

floating is prolly better tho if ur gonna play later streets well, but judging by the HH i think it's better for him to just raise flop

well if we wanna take -EV lines to be difficult to play against then that would connote hes a thinking player, and a thinking player would almost never fold Tx here. Pocket pairs arent really a problem seeing as he'll be c/fing them a decent amount on the turn so we can take it away pretty easily.

Also i kinda agree about not getting 3bet too often but theres a chance he does with big hands because of how deep stacks are and it sucks for us when it happens

TY. I timed down all the way and just figured I don't how/why villain would 3x overbet jam 250+bb's w/ a set. Also, one previous hand he c/r'ed me on a paired semi-wet board, 744dd, then bombed the turn on a brick. I gave him credit & folded but that gave me a sizing tell.

raising flop isn't -EV if he's 3betting PF that much

being difficult to play against is only one of the side benefits of raising. i think you underestimate aggrotards at low stakes most are cbetting this flop with their entire range. as i said i think floating is better if we play later streets well but i think if we're not we should take the marginal +EV of raising flop.

good ?...i was thinking about this as well, and tbh idk. I'd go by "feel" I guess. But trying to honestly put myself in that position, w/ just a bare TPMK and I think I'm folding more often than not, simply b/c for that price I dont think it is worth it.

Looking at it now the river 2p doesn't actually change the value of my hand all that much vs his range. Theres not really any 2p's except maybe 64 that I drew out on otr. So all in all I think if I'm calling here, I should be calling w/o the J or 9 otr.

poker is a sick game. started the month on a 12 buyin upswing, dont play for about a week, then promptly went on a 20 bi downswing, and then ive gotten another 12 bi upswing in the past few days, all at 25nl

standard i know but ive always been a low volume player and im trying to put in good volume lately, so the quick and drastic swings are still new for me

are you certain?

on their website it says differently - http://www.pokerstars.com/vip/earn/

IMPORTANT NOTE: In all cash ring games, points are credited at the end of a hand. So if you leave a table before the hand is completed, you may not receive the VPP for that hand. To ensure that you are properly credited, please ‘Sit Out’ until the start of the next hand, and then leave the table.

is their website just out of date?

I am pretty sure, have read it in some thread also. Pretty easy to check btw. Just sit at one table wait till there is a raise and a call, and close table on flop. Refresh cashier in 3 minutes
I might test it later and let u know

Dcred I like calling flop. You're IP and seems strong. Considering what he called with I don't like 3betting because you don't have much FE so you really are just hoping he has a worse fd which won't be very often.
