psujohn 0 Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 I like it but I'm not sure I can do it without a read. You're not raising PF with a lot of hands that have a 2 in em. If I'm B with a mid pocket pair or over cards I'm checking behind on the turn. Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 Tim,hi welcome.this looks like a very strong play; and one that probably works great up at the hi limits, like 2/4.At micro; however, we have found it's best to just bet when you got it, and fold when you don't. No trickeryness.Preflop is very ambitious. This is pretty borderline to be coming in with KT off. Unsuited Broadways don't play too well OOP, and you will be OOP against any non Blind that calls you. Good luck with an Ace flop, or a T, and you can be dominated. let me give some advice and don't take it too hard.Read:1. Getting Started in Hold'em, by Ed Miller2. Small Stakes Hold'em, by Miller, Malmuth and Sklansky.Sklansky also wrote Theory of Poker.It's for later, once you get the basics down.There are a lot of sophisticated Mathematical concepts in TOP.Do you like Math ? I do.One more thing.Only play .5/1 if you have at LEAST $300 in your Poker Bankroll.You can move to $1/2 once you have $600.Remember:1. Read books2. Post Hands.3. K.I.S.S.4 Bankroll Managementgood luck. Link to post Share on other sites
