I was tempted to slowplay but there was a flush draw out there, so I just kept leading into the raiser and luckily he fired right back. Im thinking that a huge checkraise might have scared him off, but he may have just felt pot committed anyways. Would you have checkraised him or played it different?

I was happy with the $80 pot at the turn, so I bet it. No point in slowplaying a hand like this. Getting greedy just costs me money.

[SmackinYaUp]

I made myself call this river bet without thinking about it. I didnt really think someone would checkraise me on the river without a better flush. But hell, plays like this are why I call

I let my timebank run almost all the way down before calling his river checkraise. Wouldnt he want to bet on the river if he really did have anything to at least extract some value here?

Why would anyone checkraise the river on a scary board w/ a legit hand? Wouldnt that scare the fish away? Maybe thats exactly what he wants? Bluff!

In what book does sklansky discuss this type of play? Occasionially arbitrarily reraising preflop and then pumping the flop with a huge bet is a winning play from my experience. I find it works best when you do it with rags and then show your garbage down after you take down the pot.

In the 2+2 online magazine, sklanksy talked about pumping a 10xBB raise if you're in the BB after a bunch of limpers and then just taking all that dead money preflop.

I didnt do it exactly as he said, but it was kinda cool being able to make a profit while card dead. Sometimes playing position is easier than waiting for the cards.

I am no longer an aggressive maniac because the 100NL tables are so much looser than the 50NL tables that I was used to. Plus I need to get a little bit more comfortable with the money before I try pushing allin with draws.

I cant push em over any more, and here is an example of someone calling quite a bit without much of a hand. I knew I had him beat so I only bet 20 on the river so he'd call. He was pretty much committed by now anyways so maybe I should have just went ahead and put him allin.

Wow. His play is transparent. I was about 90% sure my king was good because he called my flop bet which means he thought I was full of shit. Luckily my king hit on the turn and he continued calling me down because he believes that hands do not ever improve after the flop and he got attached. Also, he totally forgot the possibilty of an overpair. What a whore.

HA! this hand happened after me showing off bluff after bluff after bluff. I really had to pick my spots and make huge testicle-shriveling bets if i ever wanted a fold or an isolation. Anyways, these two guys were starting to go a little wild and I figured the shorstack to be allin with a small piece of the board like he always did. The bigger stack wasnt supposed to call but he did end of story. Thanks guys. I was totally in the zone after my losses from last night, this makes it all better.

Ahh this stupid bastard was really pissing me off. He started calling every single PF raise, every flop bet, and every turn bet i made. I kept raising, and betting the pot when I thought the time was right but he took about $60 off me (which he gave away to others). I knew that if I could just hit a hand Id be able to break this arrogant son of a bitch. After 2 hours of total boredom I finally broke him. Sweet revenge.

I considered just putting him allin on the turn since another potsized bet would have done just that. However, I decided to to make a slightly smaller bet to possibly get a call by a weaker hand or get an idiotic bluff. I doubt this had much effect on the outcome of this particular hand, but I figured that a smaller, weird looking bet wouldnt hurt anything.

[Element187]

man you push in alot.

i really like your play, you are defenatly a very strong no limit player, very aggressive and hard to read.. i'll keep my distance when i see you online


just sick and scary poker right there.

[SmackinYaUp]

I appreciate the kind words, but I have some big leaks that include bluffing too much that hold me back. I wish it was an elevator ride straight up, but you can imagine the swings I endure.

For example, if you would have checked in on me at the tables today, you would have seen me sitting with over $300 at one 100nl table, and $180 at another table but would have never guessed that my net profits were about $60.



I gotta be fair and admit that including my downswing my PTBB/100 has ben 3.03 over 9k hands. On the positive side, this doenst include my +$600 upswing from paradise. Before that it was like 14bb/100 but I'm sure that's not sustainable.

[SmackinYaUp]

So, how did this pot get so big?

..and some asswipe at 2+2 was saying that at my stakes table image means nothing.

I play everything fast so that when I do hit, I get paid. No point in slowplaying anything, right?

Seriously, who bets when they have a monster these days? Nobody I've seen - they only bet small on draws or bluffs.

That's my favorite way to play when I raise pre-flop and hit trips. Just bet right out and hope for a caller.

[SmackinYaUp]

Here's a good one. I know I always bitch about the calling stations, but then I show off my bluffs to get more calls when they are playing tight. I don't know I'm never happy with my opponents until they do this right after me showing a good bluff.

Here was a nice run. Nothing special except that they were about 3 hands apart. I love pushing on huge draws because it doesn't give them a change to jump ship if the board gets scary. The 4th heart in that last hand scared the crap outta me as well as the 2nd queen in the first hand.

Always best to not go broke in a small pot...or even a fairly large one. Especially against a tight player. I thought he had JJ, QQ, or AA all of which I was losing to. I ended up being wrong, but oh well, at least he was nice enough to show.

Well after a month of running bad and holding still in terms of bankroll, I've finally broken through. I've slowed my game down a lot. Theres no point in being a maniac if pocket 2's are going to call you down to the river. I still steal whenever I think theres a chance, but theres no point in raising with 78s on the button any more because two or three people will call it every time. Instead, I can sit and wait for pocket aces, raise it up to 10% of someone's stack and still get calls out of QJo and other crap.

I quit raising hands like KTo out of position because I'll get too many callers and never know where I'm at when everything from AK down to K4s will cold call me PF and cold call again on a K49 flop.

For the most part, the biggest pots I win are the ones I limped into or cold called a PF raise into. So....the preflop raising standards have been tightened up substantially.

The new poker site I'm at is great and the players there have basically handed me $1300 in the last week. Anyways, I'm back and it feels good.

[face]

In the hand 2 posts up, against a set of 7s -- you had kings, right? Your hands aren't shown in that hand history unless you show down, so you have to include them. I think your fold was excellent, but maybe you should raise more than min preflop?

Also, regarding the allin call with your overpair KK, WTF was kim thinking? Gutshot, no flush draw? And she CALLS your allin, doesn't raise you allin. Seriously, holy shit, man. I bet the club on the river scared you. Nice pot. Did you have a really strong read that not only your hand was good, but that hands as weak as A10 or flush draw (gutshot is just inane to hope for) would be calling your bet here?

[SmackinYaUp]

Oops yea that was a KK I had there. Stupid hand histories.

And yea in the other hand I figured my hand was good because this guy was a maniac from hell and I didnt want him to try and make me make any difficult decisions when possible scare cards showed up so I just closed my eyes and pushed.

[SmackinYaUp]

I love when this happens. The shortstack made this work just beautifully. When 528i checkraised to $10, edichek reraised to $20 and I flat called because I knew it would leave 528i with a couple bucks enough to re-open the betting. Edicheck just got trapped - knew he was done for.

One hand is a slowplay against multiple opponents that just turns into a passive call down to the river and the other is a heads up slowplay that ends on the flop. Theres not much point in slowplaying to the river unless you have the immortal nuts. By the time all the cards are out, most players have either missed their draws or are ahead of your pocket aces. The only river action you're gonna get with your overpair is by those who have drawn out on you.

[underminedsk]

I guess I dont understand how the first hand is slowplaying, especially the first one. It looks to me like you called PF with low pockets, like you should, and when you made your hand on the flop you raised a healthy amount.

On the second hand, your

Its funny how fishy people can get. Lets way overbet the pot and fold out hands that will pay me off while only getting stacked off by better hands.

Oh and a note - I'm not laggy or anything any more like people still seem to think. I am in certain situations like against tightasses or extremely short handed, but as you can tell, there's no point in playing laggy against these types of people. I just raise with the usuals, continuation bet, and give up if that doesnt take it down. The rest of the time I wait for situations like these or make the occasional steal - nothing laggy though.

I didnt like pushing with my ten kicker here but something about the opponent was weird - he overplayed everything. His huge raise looked like bullshit to me.

His huge raise looked like bullshit to me.

If his huge raise looked like bullshit, why take his action away? I'd only push if I thought he was fairly strong (overpair), or if I had nothing, too. Your read was right on, but your bet made it easy for him to get away from his bluff. Why not call and pretend you're on a flush draw and let him push you off it with his "q"?

Thats a good point, but in my defense he had just put 50BB's in the middle so I didn't see any reason to try and extract more. If I thought someone was bluffing smaller at me but I wasn't sure, I'd just call because theres no point in raising if he's only folding bluffs but calling with monsters. But in this hand, the pot was outta control and I didn't wanna see any more cards without my stack being in the middle.
Maybe I could have gotten him to bluff again on the turn, but I dunno....theres a lot of hands I wish I could have 2 shots at to see how things would have went.

[SmackinYaUp]

Thank god for this beautiful river card. I was playing ULTRA LAG in this game and started out losing a couple buy ins after making bad bluffs and running into real hands. I slowed down a little, made a couple 2 pair hands and got some pretty decent value bets paid off b4 this hand. I was pissed off at first but knew that I had the stage set for a big payoff cuz all the pots were getting bigger not just the ones I was in. The monotone board scared me but on the turn I was sure I had the best hand still, but it was hard telling because people slowplayed just as much as they called down with garbage. The river made this an easy play - they'd learned to checkraise me on the river earlier. Including this hand, I think I broke even or made a small profit. Damn! Still fun though and still learning...

There are still bad players and there is still money to be had at 200nl much to my surprise. I know I only post winning hands here, but thats because they're fun and motivating and make me feel good to read them. I did lose about $100 to a shortstack earlier when I paid off his backdoor flush but it was just a bad call on my part so nothing I want to save. This hand was fun.

[Pingviini]

well you already said what there was to say. make a bigger re-raise..
You are hoping for that he he has a boat and I really couldnt see him CR'ing with the hand he had so I think that he wouldnt have called that much more.. But the logic is more important than the results in this perticular hand..

[SmackinYaUp]

I almost folded when I was a stupid noob and thought the guy's AK, AQ, or A anything had me beat because of this river. I've had a lot of bad luck with losing with flopped fullhouses - I need to get to the point where I can fold those too. Here, the only thing I had to worry about was AA (i dont consider quads or straight flushes when playing 100bb stacks), but I wasnt worried at all. his reraise meant nothing because i was raising about half my hands preflop, so i was getting reraised with weak aces, pocket 4s, you name it. With third nuts, I went for it. Anyways, be careful, even in texas holdem the board can get confusing.

I'm going to start posting hands that I lost with. I like being optimistic and all but it doesnt have a point.


I didnt save the HH, but heres one.

I get pocket fives in MP. Button raises it up about 5xbb and I call.

Flop: A5A.

I hope this guy has an ace. I bet into him about 7bb's and he just cold calls.

Turn: Q

This isnt good because AQ and QQ both beat me, and I know it but I bet 18bb's and he pauses, says "hmm, though hand" and cold calls. I don't like this comment of his - its weird.

River: K

I check and he insta-pushes. Great, now KK, AK, QQ and AQ all beat me and he just pushed. I clearly should have folded, but I called because fuck it, i have a full house and its a 5 person game. He shows KK and I lose the pot. His cold calls on the flop and turn make me feel better at least, because I know there is still plenty of dead money there. I just need to not donate it back.

[SmackinYaUp]

I know i already posted this in the commune, but i just had to save it here - how often does this happen?
