Roo6339 0 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I recently decided I'd move some of my BR to UltimateBet so I can get rakeback and hopefully clear their 110% bonus. Unfortunately I'm having trouble getting PT to work with it, so I don't have any numbers on the players. I have noticed that the tables are a hell of a lot tighter. Very passive post-flop. So that being said, did I play this well? Should I check-raise this flop?Ultimate Bet 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (9 handed) Ultimate-Bet Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, K. 3 folds, MP3 calls, CO raises, 3 folds, Hero calls, MP3 calls.Flop: (10.40 SB) T, 3, 9(3 players)Hero bets, MP3 calls, CO calls.Turn: (6.70 BB) 5(3 players)Hero bets, MP3 folds, CO folds.Final Pot: 6.70 BBEDIT: Converter stuffed up...

Poohdabear 0 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 I think you played this well.I wouldn't checkraise the flop because it could make MP3 fold. The way you played you got 2 small bets out of your opponents, a checkraise would have done the same if MP3 folds and would loose you more if your draws don't come. CO might have raised your flop lead so that would have been profitable.I find it interesting that you raise KJs preflop from UTG. I know Sklansky suggests that in SSHE, but I'd probably limp there. Can't really tell why... Perhaps it's a leak in my game. Link to post Share on other sites

KTs I'll limp, but KJs is just that little bit stronger I like to raise sometimes, usually about 60% limp, 40% raise. KQs I'm raising 80% of the time. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Sorry, I think the HH is messed up?Did you limp UTG?I raise KJs and KTs, and I raise KQs 90235% of the time. Link to post Share on other sites
Roo6339 0 Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah, there's a little edit under the hand. UB hand histories suck. Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Oh ok, then I stand by my "nice hand". Link to post Share on other sites
RISEorFall 0 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 i agree.by the way, the UB bonus is a bitch to clear. There is no table selection at all unless you play NL or jackpot tables. The UB points, even though they just upgraded them, take forever to clear at 1/2 and 2/4. I opened an account there in early January and I think I've been able to multi table more than 2 tables about 3 times. stuff you might've wished you knew before hand, but oh well.good luck Link to post Share on other sites
Roo6339 0 Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 Yeah, I'm thinking it's gonna take a really really long time to clear it. It says $1 per 20 UB points I earn, but I've got 20 UB points and I haven't gotten a dollar yet... Do you know if I'm supposed to clear all of it before I get any of it?

Viper_13 0 Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 In case you don't, you need an ultimate bet handgrabber (link at pt website) and have the hand history window open for pt to work. Link to post Share on other sites

That is sweet - sitting down at a table full of players you might not know and instantly getting 100 hands of data on them. Link to post Share on other sites
