I call this turn and at least see a river. I could see this being 45, 58 or 89 pretty easily... but I'm rusty. In any case, I call here and see a river.

This is really, really read-dependend, in my opinion.

Its a small sample size but based on what I've seen of him I don't know if he's capable of a semi-bluff like that.

Is he capable of putting you on air and rebluffing or getting out-of-line with 65 or A2 or something?

What is a 60/15/.07 after 30 hands capable of? I don't think that I had an overly aggressive image at that point, and even if I had been out of line I dont think he's capable of anything but "I like my hand a lot, I bet" or "'I sorta like my hand or I'm on a draw or I think I can get lucky, so I call". 65 or A2 is possible, but he hasn't been at all aggressive with anything yet.

I'm probably folding, then, generally.

[checkymcfold]

gawd, even when i'm winning i'm running like ****ing garbage lately. up a whopping 5BB, stuck nearly 100BB on the river, where i've hit one draw and lost to 22, lol.(i really should stop keeping track of that on my little note pad, but it's like crack, seriously--i started doing it to verify that i was just running bad during a downswing and now i can't stop, well, verifying that i run bad all the time.)

You're a very bad influence on me, Checky. I was a much more positive person before I started posting here.

I don't think keeping track of how many times you get drawn out on vs how many times you draw out is an accurate representation of how you're running...unless you understand that you're always going to get drawn out on more even when you're not running bad. Unless we're only playing HU, aren't we always going to get drawn out on more than we draw out on our opponents since there are more of them then there are of us? 22-1 is a little much though. I've been up for a long time and I might not be thinking clearly, so what I just said may not make sense.

Your instincts serve you well. On the plus side, I think I'm probably winning today. How do you like that, Debbie Downer?Edit: reading that back, it sounds like a taught. Oops. GL.
