screech 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Flop call is bad with 5 players. Just fold.Turn card helps. Still no reason to raise. You're at best a split... Link to post Share on other sites
jayistheman 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 yeah.. i totally agree.i have been misplaying really bad this session... although not bad to win on first session played in 4 months.guess it was a good idea to move down to micro stakes... lol Link to post Share on other sites

screech 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 fold or raise the flopWhy would we raise?There are no draws on the board. Any hands we beat are drawing to 2 outs at best.Any hands that beat us aren't folding. Link to post Share on other sites

screech 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 to get it HU Â maybe pick up the potThe only people that fold are the people we have crushed.fold a better A putting us on a 7No better ace is folding at these limits.define hands from previous reads on villainsRaising is not defining our hand. SB defined his hand already by leading into 4 opponents. He has an ace or a 7. If he was bluffing, good job. Now we get him to fold and win the minimum. There is absolutely no reason to define our hand.to get position on the original betterHow does this help? He is either bluffing (unlikely), or we are splitting the pot at best.

jayistheman 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 fold or raise the flopi should have folded... i really don't like raising. my thoughts were that I may hear from a 7 later down the line if there are a few cold callers. i really don't want to raise and then get cold called on this flop... i minded it less on the turn when i was sure of a chop.

allinbluff35 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 define villains holdings and fold another A on the river if it's checked through on the turn, I'm check/folding if more than 1 person calls and check/folding if anyone other than clown 1(original bettor) calls. raising this depends on your reads though. I like to pick up small pots in NL because they add up, I don't play TAG, I play LAG. My "advice/comments" for NL hands here usually gets looked over or people tell me that I'm wrong. I'm a winning NL player that doesn't play the same as the NL players that play here. I'll go back to not caring about this section of the forum because you people can't come down from your throwns. Good day. Link to post Share on other sites
screech 0 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 My mistake allin. I thought this was limit hold em. :oops: Raising the flop makes a lot more sense now if we are going to continue with the hand. Disregard most of my previous comments.I still think folding is best for most people. Link to post Share on other sites

mrdannyg 274 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 i think you raise here to define your hand. i think your goal in a hand like this is to represent a hand to other players and play off their reactions to your representations.im a bad NL player, but i think a hand like this can be played simply, since you're either winning a small pot or spewing away a bunch of chips.
