NormanHaupt 0 Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 Okay, I've compiled some hands that pretty much sums up my limit play. I'm a winner in the long run. My preflop play is pretty good I feel (I make occassional mistakes, not betting AK because I'm multitabling). Its my postflop play I've trouble with. These are posted for Allin, Aki, and wrto- but I hope to see replies from Smash and may other limit players. Thanks for the help everyone.-------------Dealt to NormanHaupt [Qs Ts]Hefnz: folds Billy Mass: calls $0.25IMTheWalrus8: folds Mr Coca Cola: folds xTBONEx: raises $0.25 to $0.50L.A.

Vade 0 Posted March 13, 2005 Share Posted March 13, 2005 My advice usually isn't that good either, at least as far as hands go. I offer my opinions as a contrast, to set the example of what not to do (not really ) and as in the other thread, I learn more by saying what I would do in this situation.I only would take my advice on small NL and PL tournies, as that's where my success lies, again I'm an average player who enjoys posting a lot Link to post Share on other sites

Taking a stab at it is okay, but when you get raised, there's no point in continuing. Link to post Share on other sites
NormanHaupt 0 Posted March 13, 2005 Author Share Posted March 13, 2005 But if you raise preflop, and then fold when reraised on the normal flop.. isn't that opening the doors for any noob with two braicells to rub together? Link to post Share on other sites

He bet when my card hit, May have been a straight but I didn't figure. If he hit a pair of T's I figured I had him with my Q kicker. What do you think? Still had my straight draw, too.Well, your implied odds are pretty good if the striahgt comes in on the Delta (the sixth board card). Of course you should have folded. Raise the flop, though. Maybe he folds and you win this with the pair of tens.

If Bob hasn't come near yet, beckon to him with the paper and say "I have this hand here, come take a look."When he's about 5 feet away from you, kick him in the balls.

NormanHaupt 0 Posted March 13, 2005 Author Share Posted March 13, 2005 Wow, thanks for the great posts. I know Akishore and Allin are going to chime in too. I guess I need to tighten up a lot. I still don't feel right betting a flop with AK that totally misses, ad I still have trouble laying down hands. Someone said "Pump ir or dump it" and maybe I take it too litterally.I knw better, I really do in a lot of these cases. I could argue that four tabling did some of this.. but the fact is when I'm sitting here playing, it all goes out the window. I mean, I know what most of the starting hands are (I go by the loose list too much, instead of the tight one, I think)Anyway, thanks again, Smash.Tomorow I'm going to post some more. I'm going to chill a little with my NL I'm spewing money entirely too much and its totally ruining my BR. Link to post Share on other sites

TheMathProf 0 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 [n00b opinion]The one thing that I noticed among the hands you've posted, Norman, is the betting/raising when you've got a pocket pair and an overcard hits.It might be one thing to do it with queens or kings to isolate and/or figure out where you're at. When you've got a hand like 88, though, I like it a lot less especially when it's the ace or maybe the king that has hit, because (1) everybody and his uncle stays in with any ace, including some who have no right doing so, but also (2) because the odds of ANOTHER overcard coming on the turn are reasonably high, and now you're stuck with trying to figure out where you're at all over again. If you've got kings and you raise and figure that you're reasonably good, it's hard to imagine a turn card that could really threaten that (you may be deceiving yourself, but that's another issue). If you've got 8's with an A on the board, and then a Q comes, now you don't know if it was the Ace that had you, or somebody just waiting around for a queen. Are you going to call now? You didn't, but it seems like half the time, you're going to run into this situation where you have a tough decision to make.Also, I can't imagine that there are very many hands at all that are worth calling two bets cold. Seems like most of them are either fold/raise.[/n00b opinion] Link to post Share on other sites
NormanHaupt 0 Posted March 14, 2005 Author Share Posted March 14, 2005 lol hey, Math, how you doing?Remember these were 23 hands out of 400. I fixed a lot of the advice tonight and I seem to be +EV a lot more now. I've toned down my aggression folding unless I've got top stuff. I'm sure I've been bluffed out of pots.. but, maybe I can't win them all. Link to post Share on other sites
TheMathProf 0 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I'm doing good. I've had an awesome day of +130 BB at the .05/.10 limit tables today and counting. Gotta love a fantastic rush.I know what you mean about some of these things go. I had a tremendous gaping leak that I opened up in my game about a week ago and then tilted in response by betting/raising AK on every single street. :)It didn't help that I convinced myself I misplayed two hands that I didn't actually misplay anywhere near as badly as I thought (darned result-oriented thinking!)Anyway, it's always a good feeling when you get things back to normal. Glad you're finding your way there. Link to post Share on other sites

JFarrell20 1 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I glance at two hands and saw big flaws. the first hand you should have raised with an OESD due to the fact that you'll hit it 1/3 of the time and you have a 4-person pot.on the 88 hand why didn't you bet out on the flop instead of Check-raising 1 guy???I didn't look at everything but it looks like you have leaks in your game and probably lose 1-2 BB/hour Link to post Share on other sites

How about on the reraise?don't limp with Axs UTG. SSHE says one of the two biggest mistakes you can make is playing marginal/speculative hands out of position. if you get raised, you lose a lot of money in the long run. anyway, the bet on the flop was fine, but when it got raised, you should check-fold on the turn. someone obviously has an ace (implying better kicker) or making a flush free card play, and either way, you're beat on the turn. fold the turn with marginal hands because that's when the limit doubles, and that's when your backdoor draws either disappear or improve, and in this case your backdoor draw disappeared.Dealt to NormanHaupt [Kh Kc]ndsapp: calls $0.25Misterman: calls $0.25nealarm joins the table at seat #5 NormanHaupt: calls $0.15Hefnz: checks *** FLOP *** [Ah 2s 7d]NormanHaupt: bets $0.25Hefnz: calls $0.25ndsapp: raises $0.25 to $0.50Misterman: calls $0.50NormanHaupt: calls $0.25Hefnz: folds *** TURN *** [Ah 2s 7d] [5c]NormanHaupt: bets $0.50ndsapp: raises $0.50 to $1Misterman: folds NormanHaupt: calls $0.50*** RIVER *** [Ah 2s 7d 5c] [6h]NormanHaupt: checks ndsapp: bets $0.50NormanHaupt: calls $0.50*** SHOW DOWN ***ndsapp: shows [Ad 2d] (two pair, Aces and Deuces)I'm having a serious problem with KK, QQ, JJ when something hits above it.

Still had my straight draw, too.I can't find too much wrong here. I may have bet out the flop or even check-raised it. You've got a great draw there don't waste it. Looking the guy up on the river is not a bad play heads up, just make sure you are using the info that you paid for. Although on Party (I believe) you've also given away what you were playing too.

I'm told if I'm raised in the BB, call with whatever hand I would normally call with. This right? I also hear KTo is a huge money sinkhole. What about this?I don't really get what's going on here. I thought you were in the big blind since you only called 0.25. But your position after the flop indicates you are not in the BB. I'm going to assume you had 0.25 in before you got your cards because you just sat down or missed a blind or something. If you called a raise, cold with K-10 off you should never ever ever do that again.Sklansky says it's OK to call a raise with group 6 hands in the BB. So, I don't really have a problem with that, just remember flopping top pair with the King is probably your worst nightmare with the hand. You were facing a bet and a raise on the flop. I think it's safe to fold here, 3 betting it is a really bad idea.Dealt to NormanHaupt [Ts Qs]lottsdollar: calls $0.25Murdogg20: folds NormanHaupt: calls $0.15Sunfish: checks *** FLOP *** [Kc 6d 8c]NormanHaupt: checks Sunfish: checks lottsdollar: checks *** TURN *** [Kc 6d 8c] [Tc]NormanHaupt: bets $0.50Sunfish: calls $0.50lottsdollar: folds *** RIVER *** [Kc 6d 8c Tc] [5c]NormanHaupt: checks Sunfish: bets $0.50NormanHaupt: folds Sunfish collected $1.75 from potHow do you feel folding to a three flush?

Anyway, back to how you played it, I'm OK with checking the flop. And you did good betting the turn. Why not bet the river? Unless he has the Ace of clubs you are probably not going to get raised. If you are going to check, why not call him down on the river, it's only one bet and if he doesn't have a club you probably have the best hand. Again, heads up, I call for one bet on the river just to see how they play. Bonus is people will try to bluff you less too.

If you get raised I believe it kills your +EV unless you get a lot of callers. I'm hoping you knew this was a very passive table.Again, this is your worst nightmare of a flop. I would have called the flop bet just to see if I could hit a Heart or a 4. I probably would have folded to a turn bet but I can't fault you for calling that one too much. Overcalling (making a call after a bettor and a caller) on the river was a huge mistake.

(I mistakenly didn't rease preflop, four tabling.. blah)Not getting the raise in here a monumental blunder. I would really like to see you playing less tables if this type of thing happens more than once a week. you can always increase table later. Also, betting out on the turn with and Ace on the board after being raised on the flop is a very bad idea. If you want to find out for sure if he has a Ace you may want to 3 bet the flop and see what happens.

I don't like the Ace up there with someone betting into me but I don't want to fold either. How does he know you don't have A-K or a set of 9's? Take the free card on the turn then call him down on the river. If anything I have said offends, it was not meant to. Hopefully, my comments have been helpful and give you some new ideas on playing certain situations (or at least reiterate what other people have said). I don't guarantee everything I have said to be 100% correct at all times. And just so you know, I've never played Hold 'Em at .5/1. I mostly play at 5/10 so some of my advice is geered toward a more savy opponent and may or may not apply to the people at this level.[/i] Link to post Share on other sites

JFarrell20 1 Posted March 15, 2005 Share Posted March 15, 2005 Thanks for the great reply. I've peeled back my sheer aggression and started pretty much folding second pairs. Hit a huge session the other  day.That's not the point. When you have 88 and there is one over-card (queen) on the flop (with 1 or two opponents), it's very likely you are ahead. It's better to bet out on that flop than to check/raise. I just don't get it. If you bet out, you gain fold equity (not much), and if you get raised, you can get rid of the hand pretty easily. Why spend 1 whole big bet on this flop when you could have spent .5? I hope you aren't doing it to see the river for free, because you aren't on a draw and it's not like it's a real multi-way pot.So to sum up, don't just lay down 2nd pair on the flop. Know how to bet it.Good luck.By the way I'm still waiting for a PM about how much you are earning or losing per hour. You don't have to answer but if you don't it'll be safe to assume I was correct.

My preflop play is pretty good I feel (I make occassional mistakes, not betting AK because I'm multitabling). Its my postflop play I've trouble with.

Good plan?Don't play these hands in limit unless you have a bunch of people in.
