    Default I forgot how to play poker

    Seventh hand at the table, I doubled two hands ago when button raised with 89s and I had 44. Flop 848..nhggthx.


    ***** Hand History for Game 5106711591 *****
    $100 NL Texas Hold'em - Tuesday, September 05, 08:05:54 ET 2006
    Table Table 106777 (Real Money)
    Seat 6 is the button
    Total number of players : 6
    Seat 1: zinaida ( $30.17 )
    Seat 2: Clockwork__ ( $326.81 )
    Seat 3: nghtprwlr ( $97 )
    Seat 4: dsldslaces ( $100 )
    Seat 5: willis2 ( $18.45 )
    Seat 6: Vulvacanoe ( $217.40 )
    Clockwork__ posts small blind [$0.50].
    nghtprwlr posts big blind [$1].
    ** Dealing down cards **
    Dealt to Vulvacanoe [ Ac Ah ]
    dsldslaces folds.
    willis2 calls [$1].
    Vulvacanoe raises [$5].
    Clockwork__ raises [$15.50].
    nghtprwlr folds.
    willis2 folds.
    Vulvacanoe raises [$55].
    Clockwork__ calls [$44].
    ** Dealing Flop ** [ Jd, 3d, As ]
    Clockwork__ checks.

    I have rasied like 4/7 hands I have been here, clockwork__ has a decent stack and is multi-tabling so I am assuming he is not a total donk reasing light oop in the blinds. I am 90% sure he has QQ or KK here.

    Whats my plan on this flop and his chck. Do you like my play pre? Another line I was thinking of running is call pre, call flop bet (if he c bet), CR on turn.

    Pre is goot, get as much in there as possible. I like to 1/2 pot the flop c-bet like and hope he's going for a c/r, but I think the ace probably kills your action.
  3. #3
    Yes.. definately a bet here is required... i would say the normal 1/2 to 3/4 bet.. personally i think he has QQ,KK here or may have any drawing hand in which case he may take a peak to the turn (yes i know ludacris but i've seen it-- also AKd??), no matter what u can not slow play this hand!! Because he made it pretty obvious he has paint cards, i dont like slow playing when there is a possible draw involving paint cards, u have 2 draws out there that maybe of a worry. If he folds u weren't gonna get any action anyways, and if he calls hell thats more money in the pot and then u nail it on the turn!!!!

    definitly bet. 1/2 pot may get a drawing hand to call, and you can get it all in on the turn.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    Check the flop, you have a lot of time to get it in and he's probably drawing almost dead.

    they do in my experience. if they are bad they arent folding anyway, and if they are good they see your check and future bets (or your half pot flop bet) as super strength and dont give you action.

    Yeah, on second thought I like this better. Check and hope he leads the turn.

    If possible, click the "check" box beforehand so when he checks, you autocheck. Autocheck = I have nothing = If he's paying attention at all he bets the turn even with air. Love doing this with sets.

    I like the autocheck. Looks like he needs runner runner here anyways.

    I use Gabe's push line the most. People don't like to lay down KK and pushing the flop after that preflop action just seems so phony. Works for me the most.

    I bet all my stack except for a penny and he folded.

    He said it was a shi.tty a.ss flop and I misplayed my JJ real badly

    I love it when I know I am ahead, and I get the opponent to call everything he has but 1 penny. It is so damn funny.

    I actually bet 88 and he folded

    If he is a decent TAG:

    If he has QQ he is folding anyway no matter what you do since hes behind AK/AA/KK/JJ on that flop.
    If he has KK you might get him to talk himself into calling if you push the flop (unlikely though).

    Checking the flop wont work, if hes very aggro you might get a turn bet out of him but thats it.
