cardplayer had several very solid players who would swing by and give advice in the MTT section, but yeah its kinda dead a lot of the time. So much so that its now being shut down ;__;.
2p2...
he said it was 17ish dollars, not that its particularly relevant. A read would be of far greater use than the buy-in.
Lolol as I thought. Why do I even bother.
djblacke your grasp on poker is simply horrible. You apply a rigid system of "only ship with 10bb or less" irrespective of the scenario. You talk...
Ok so I'm going to attempt to apply brute force maths to this fool just this once. I'm almost certain he will skim over/ignore/not understand it but I'm at a loose end and its always good practice...
"3x as per usual"? For starters 3x'ing generally isn't the norm in these situations, and secondly even if it was where did you detail this in your initial post?
Did you somewhere tell us...
Why did you tell us the flop was JJ2, how will that be at all relevant to our decision preflop?
And yeah, bang it in. Even more so if there are antes, but i still ship even without them.
well i've been on a 20bi downswing at 50NL since the start of august, so...
as for the ladies, i'll leave that to your imagination :P
Sick stuff man, must feel pretty awesome to take something like that down o__o
And yeah, I posted because I definitely need the rungood... :P
Well for starters its a straight up ship pre.
But ignoring this, you say you completed to "set a trap", did you have a particular reason for doing this or did you just feel like "mixing it...
I hop in my time machine and ship it in pre... good god, why the hell are you completing this?
UB is good but only for cash games. I'd steer clear if you're a SNG player because the traffic for SNGs is very poor.
For micro cash its a pretty sweet set up though, 30% rakeback and the...
This single post has given me much amusement, thank you:
hi guys.....
I recommend learning these categories by heart so you don't have to refer to the list when playing.
...
Why the sudden move to cash games? Ive read some of your blog and I thought you were mainly an MTT player?
Cash games are incredibly complex and I imagine the field is very tough at the $2...
"category 8 hand" rofl? What the hell book have you been reading?
With 5bbs I'd be pushing K6s, and for the record far wider even than that. You really need to sort out your attitude with...
lol your fold with K3s is fine, not careless at all. If you go completing trash BvB with blinds like these youre just going to be leaking your stack away. What if you completed and it came Kxx vs...
Apparently my account was too long... *rolls eyes*
One guy at the final table was running sick hot. He called a ~minraise out of the BB vs utg and check-shoved his 35k on A25r or something...
Christ that's rough - i know how pissy I can be if I bust some "big" online tournament on the bubble after something like 3 hours... so it must really hurt after almost 4 days o__o. Not going to...
Really nice job so far, must be so awesome to be playing the main event.
If i ended up ever playing it and got so far as day 3 there'd be no end to my bragging about it... to get to day 4...
FWIW, the K3s preflop call is baaaad even though youve got good odds. And as played you should definitely be leading the flop rather than trying to check/raise four ways.
Also, you got it...
Persistence is definitely key. Be prepared for stretches where you only break even or barely cash at all and try not to be frustrated by them. The big cash will come eventually, just keep at it...
Very interesting read, glad I decided to still pop back here from time to time :P
With cash games it's still possible to use conservative bankroll management, just like your SNGs. And I...
Pictures = win rofl
Cool post, hope you manage to keep on moving up and experiencing good results in the second half of 2010!
Erm, yes, I gave you ranges of hands for him twice.
All combos of suited spades
Lots of AsXx hands, especially paired ones like As3x and AsJx
KJ, 33
You're wrong about...
I thought SNGWizard was used to calculate the expectations of a play but taking into account factors such as the prize structure and ICM. So if you've got 77 on the bubble in a SNG you could put...
First of all your comment about "not adjusting to new players like durr" is largely moot because tom dwan plays on full tilt, and daniel negreanu plays on pokerstars. Daniel has always been more...
What? How would you go about justifying that?
Seems to me it should be the other way around - SNG Wizard analyses complex situations that new players won't understand fully. It's more...
Sigh. More generic questions :P
We need more information. What games do you play? Cash games? Single table SNGs? Guarantee tournaments?
What's more important to you in a poker site...
Don't leave based on how much you have won/lost - that's really illogical/bad thinking. You should be basing your decision to stay on purely objective factors - can you beat this table? Is it a...
Yeah ok so just watched it and i assume you meant the QQ hand.
Firstly it's a table with a strange dynamic - the cannon's range can be a whole bunch of hands like AsXx which negreanu can be...
"to get him to fold ? or to get him to call?"
how about to add 10% in expected value to our stack? THAT is the aim of a push.
"either way you are flippin for all your tournement...
