TheCincinnatiKid 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Can incorporating 23s into your $1/2 or $2/4 No Limit game prove to be profitable over time??I find when i play it, it never hits, and when it does it usually gets draw out on. but I have seen high stakes players add it into their game when their oppponents are stacked fairly deep. Anybody play it profitably over the long??Or have any insight to playing this hand? Link to post Share on other sites

SuperJon 175 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 If you have to ask, you can't play it.Period.Exactly.If you're going to play a hand like 23s, you might as well start playing hands like 94. However, if you do play those hands, your intent should be on trying to outplay someone, rather than hit a hand.All in all, I still believe it's correct to play TAG in nl cash games.

mikeysong 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 actually that's not truei play it all the timeand there's a huge difference between 23s and 94. one is for giggle factor, the other is for implied odds Link to post Share on other sites
TB17 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 the greatest basketball player in the world wore 23, therefore you must pay him his respect by calling raises with his hand Link to post Share on other sites

TB17 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 not to be racist or anything but it should be said that 23s and 23c are more effective than 23h and 23d...DUCY? Link to post Share on other sites

00timh 0 Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Raise it? NL cash game... not unless you feel you can get someone to put in some money and out play them because you have a ninja read on them, then it doesn't matter what hand you play. If I am in the BB and the sb does a donk min raise and there is no one else in the pot, I probably call this. Otherwise it gets tossed. Link to post Share on other sites
No_Neck 0 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 the only problem with 23s is if you hit a straight it will be the bottom end of the straight or the lowest possible flush.I like playing though to tilt people. Just play it from the SB so it is half price.(that last part might not be good advice) Link to post Share on other sites

David_Nicoson 1 Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I stay away from it personally.It does have some nice deceptive properties. E.g., Hero raises with 2 3 . Flop comes A 4 8 . Hero c-bets. He can represent an ace on a flop that often misses the villain very convincingly, with a little draw in case the semibluff fails. Link to post Share on other sites
