*****Official February "greatest place on the interwebs" Chat Thread!***** - Page 66 - Micro Stakes Pot Limit and No Limit

Series of 15 freezeouts (1 rebuy ea), usually 25-30 entrants. 10 out of 15 scores count, and the top 4 players (mayyyybe top5) get a $1500 WSOP seat.

I've won 3 of the first 10 tourneys, and I don't want to jinx it, but I think I'm going to win a seat.

I get drunk, talk smack, and tilt the everliving **** out of everyone. The host writes up TRs afterward:

LOL I like the strategy. GL GL.

Sort of reminds me of one time we were playing 2/4 limit at MGM (I know I know). My roommate kept telling everyone his hole cards EVERY hand. I mean every single time. And he was telling the truth. The hilarious part is he kept winning. Nobody would believe him. We were pretty drunk obv. and I was busting up the whole time. He was up about $100 and then the dealer made him stop and he immediately started loosing.

For the last 50k hands it's flop 64, and turn 39. Is that to low for turn in your opinion?

Edit: Or maybe i Cbet flop to much

No, I think a flop cbet of 64% is fine. As for the turn, meh, there are probably some spots where you could double barrel more, but it's really dependent on the villain, the board etc.

So long as what you are doing is profitable/+EV then there's no need to change it. As you move up, you just have to be ready to adjust to your opponents. But, even at small stakes, I think a flop cbet of 64% is fine. Though, imo, you will need to pick spots to double barrel more.

Ah early spring in New England. The snowbanks melting away to reveal 4 months worth of Dunkin Donuts litter. The feel of sand and road salt blowing through your hair.....

You mean, if a card hits the board that villain thinks hit your range. If the turn does hit you then you're obv. betting.

67 degrees this morning, warmed up to 71, now it cooled down to 69. Overnight low is going to be 61 (brrrr).

I stopped playing the "last hand". I use to uncheck my blinds and then play around or at least MP, but I notice that if you made your mind up you are done, "you're done". Now I just close all my tables at once no matter what position I am in.

I really enjoyed that particular hand. I'd been three bet 3x by the same player across different tables this session and got my payback.

What kind of problem could I have with my PC if the driver of the videocard just doesn't want to update?

Yes, almost perfect weather all year long must suck. Us in the midwest will say we enjoy all the seasons, but that's just covering up the jealousy.
