Fulltilt CAP game fun.

    Default Fulltilt CAP game fun.

    Some hands from the the 5/10 NL cap game. It's a game of trapping, or at least that's how I had the most success. Just let people commit themselves then they're pretty much forced to call any raise since the betting is capped at 30 BB. I guess the converter isn't configured for these games yet so it has some of the pots a little bigger than they actually were. Once $300 is bet you're treated as all-in.

    BB mucks Js 8s <---- Hey dumbass, implied odds aren't there when the max you can win is 30BB (This way by far the biggest and most common mistake I saw people making. I couldn't even tell you how many people I saw get AI on a draw without proper odds).

    I was just screwing around but I was +$1,508 after 271 hands. I ran really hot though. The full ring game was definately tougher as I could tell several of the players understood the necessary adjustments to make for the CAP structure. I made several mistakes myself as I was figuring out how to best approach it. The guys at my 6-max table were totally clueless though and were very easy to exploit.

    Play big cards. High card value is everything.
    Be a lot less inclined to raise small pairs.
    Showdown anything of value.
    Don't try to blow people off hands.
    Suited connectors are dogshit unless you're mixing it up against a tight player who folds too much(lol)

    How'd I do?
