A well executed rippy

Boo.

It's only a legit rippy if you hit something absurd with your 47o to crack his obvious Ks or As. Betting them out is a cop out

It also counts if you raise UTG and show.

Rippy - you remind me so much of my friend Mike. He plays poker like that, raising with about anything and betting out if he catches a piece. He especially loves playing low cards like that because he assumes if it's a garbage flop and he made a pair, his opponents have overcards and missed completely.

something tells me he wins a lot playing this strat

as long as he has solid post flop skills he'll do fine playing that way

the question is can he lay down hands on reraises

being a good and great player can be defined by how you play "marginal" hands.


Aces definately plays marginal hands well.
