I open raise 3x with J8s in the HJ, BB reraises to 10x and I shove. Is goot?

Please discuss spewing in general.

i like it

Is this a joke?

If you like to spew for the meta-game, find me on Stars and join my table please.

Only the non-observant and those without a HUD will be fooled.

spew? what spew?

One spew a day keeps the doctor away

loooooooool


omg this is awesome,may I use this as my new location please???

it also keeps the meta at play

or the thieves away

or the nits at bay

I read those HH's and was like WTF! for almost a minute. Then, slowly, every so slowly, I began to chuckle. In fact, I ended up timing out on two tables.

OMG i could post so many spew hands,just looking thru my DB

One of the high stakes regs said spewing was in general bad iirc

Clearly they are misinformed and would get crushed in the micros.

SWEET! Thanks for showing this! I feel so much better. Sure, I still suck but it is nice to see other spewy behavior. FWIW, villain had KK in my original post.

RE: JayKon, yes it is a joke. I'm just venting about my horrible play.

More spew. Same session, perhaps the same table.

Villain (XXdieYoungyyInAxx -- begins with 'Y', ends with 'yy') has just sat down and is limping/calling every hand PF. He is showing platinum or SN. I 3bet folded to big flop donks in position with ATC to him the last 2 out of 3 hands.

FFFF UUUU. Obviously he could see I was a bit tilted and spewing. Even if I have Qx it turns out villain has more than enough equity to call. A few hands before I had gotten it in good AI on the turn and then was rivered by a hit and run artist (FFFF UUUU). Probably played another 100 hands here and never got a chance to mix it up with villain who continued to play VPIP > 60.

One of those WTF sessions. I get it in good and lose. I bluff with air and villain's trash hit the board enough to call me down. I shove with trash PF against a villain capable of folding but he has KK (naturally).

Pretty bad session after an annoying day as a tourist in Chennai. I never play craps, roulette, et cetera but when I'm annoyed sometimes I gamble (intentionally get it in bad) at NLHE. TANGENT: this is what anti-poker idiots don't get -- they think all poker is like my spew play. These plays were gambling but most of the time I'm not "gambling".

4bet, C+ bet, fold. Awesome.

I already figured out it was a joke

I'll share one from a while back that happened at the end of a 14 hour 6 tabling session (where I was only up about $120.

Given the SPR after PF betting that is not very spewy, even with a good read.

Now that is what I'm talking about! NH sir!

thats only semi-spew,you should have called the shove/bluffcall

Man I really must suck way too much for you guys, I have a hard enough time winning when I try, and you guys are talking about spewing buyins like they are last nights tequila.

You are mistaken (about me) sir. I spew because I suck. You should have seen me last night. I probably lost about 4 BI because I could not fold what had been the nutz on the flop/turn when the donkey villain hit on the river. I'm talking the river comes to make both a flush and 4 to a straight and I just could not fold. I really really suck.

I could post lots of hands to show how much I suck. The ones above are merely when I spew because I'm aggro in the wrong spot or run into a monster.

Oh, and I can not beat 80/20 maniacs to save my life.
