Why such a small 3-bet if you're willing to play for stacks?

[Fnord]

Why such a small 3-bet if you're willing to play for stacks?

Setting up a turn bet that prices out draws and keeping him in the game if he's got a worse Queen.

You plan to push turn if he just calls the flop minraise?

What did you see in his play that made you think you were good here? This HH needs some reasoning behind it to be valuble.

I didn't min-re-raise. Yes, I was going to shove most turn cards.

Yup

[Warpe]

What did you see in his play that made you think you were good here?

I see a button that limped, folded to.

[swiggidy]

Is this a 2nd level humor post?

1) I love em
2) If button typically calls and you're happy playing for stacks with TP against this villain is raising more a problem?
3) never in this situation
4) see my comment above
5) [] clearly you made the best play [/]

[Miffed22001]

how much did our button buy in for. Surely not 100bbs?

[Pelion]

I didn't min-re-raise.

Yea ok that still gets me. At first glance I always see a double as a minaise. Its not far off one though.

You really arent going to help me out with a read here are you

Is this your average 40/20 50BB LAG whos got lucky a couple of hands before?

Um, don't post results? I'd like to hear your read on the villain.

Um....this whole thread was a commentary on doing everything you're not supposed to do and winning. Goes to show there's more than one way to do everything.

[drmcboy]

you play bad.

Except it's not.

I like every move.

You did exactly the opposite of everything that is preached in these forums. I assumed you were trying to make a point....

Yup, it's part of the answer to why people who play cookie cutter poker are bitching about downswings and long break-even swings right now despite playing a game where the fish should be drawing pretty much dead.

Similar reasoning why I play LAGG to start SNG's and TAGG to finish.

Already where I send most of my action.

*shrug*, the adjustments we make to our opponents are vastly more important than the adjustments we try to get them to make.
