Yeeeah... maybe I should bet the under on that...

I tell people to kill themselves on a regular basis at B-dog... and I usually describe whatever methodology pleases me at the moment in pretty good detail.

You mean 3rd nut low? The only lower hand that missed was 2-7...

I need to start playing poker again

The Doyle Brunson!

72, T2, T6, T7

Oh yeah... i forgot people saw the flop with that hand

My response:

... Are you serious?

I didn't realizes aces were offensive

I wonder what they'll answer to this:

Odd... I didn't realize using microsoft paint on a googled image of a green maple leaf and placing a green A in each corner followed by a smaller version of the leaf was a drug reference. Are there places in the world where they use syringes to inject themselves with maple syrup or something?

I do whenever possible. It's fun to be able to turn your cards over when you make 10's full of 2's and say something like "I just couldn't help myself" in that Texas drawl.

how to make $170 in 10 minutes

SHIP IT!!!

I love the holidays

my $50 6 max results I love this game...

nice work

Jesus. Switch lives please?

Neck...I have some reservations about all three of those hands that you posted.

the only one for me was the 2nd hand - taking AK all the way to the turn before getting anything? But obviously you knew the A was coming otherwise you wouldn't have kept betting haha


I love the pocket 2s hand though - it's like the spanish inquisition, no one expects low pocket pairs

The set of twos is a no-brainer.
I'm not sure about shoving AK preflop. Needs reads.
The JT hand ... meh.

That's why his chart looks that way.

please lets hear them, this person was an uber calling station but for some reason would always bet the turn if you checked to him if he had a hand or not, also for the most part the size of his bet was directly correlated to how big his hand was. The AK hand I knew he would call with whatever he raised with so I just pushed, this guy would play ATo like the nuts so I didn't want to see a flop and get outplayed.

I am always open to discussion about poker though.

RESULTS BASED!




...Nice results, btw

I just hate AK, also I like to play it like AA so that I have to call of my stack with AA because I play my AK just like I play my AA so he might think I have nothing.

it is all about me not having to fold

Neck based on the hands all being against same villian and ur reads i think the 22 hand is std. I'm not a fan of shoving AK like. I totally hate the raise on the turn with the TJ .

I hear you on the turn raise that might not be the best play, but I really just had the feeling that he doesn't bet $3 with a strong hand

I still stand by my play with AK against this villain though, and all of this hands were against the same idiot.

Steelers vs Pats line has moved from a 13.5 opening to 10/10.5 soooooooooooooooooooo much money on the Steelers for this to move so drastically

holy crap, I hope they don't know something I don't know....


I am looking at Krup and Desmoines for action on this game

Yeah, you're going to get action.
Shoot me your thoughts.

Question, no wait. It's a statement.

Crush Tom Brady's skull Steelers, please. I'm Ron Burgandy?

I want the Patriots to be at full strength when the Bucs play them in the Super Bowl, that way Tampa Bay will have gone in to Dallas in the NFC Championship Game and beat the second best team in the NFL before beating the best team in the big game.

I'll make you a vow. If that happens, I'll become a Buc's fan and post pictures of me burning my Romo Jersey

i will tatoo that retarded logo on my left ass cheek if that happens as you say

Given some reads, I think we come back into the reasonable realm. That said, I need clarification. You said the size of his bet related to his hand...so when you have the set of 2s and he bets $8...does that indicate weakness or strength? And based on the villain's play of the AJ, he seems really confused about what exactly constitutes a "big" hand.

I'm really not clear why y'all think that set of 2s hand is standard. Against a calling station, I'm betting or check/raising that turn. Were you going for a c/r on the river? That seems rather ambitious with a set on a 3-flush/straight board.

The AK, I prefer calling or going to $25, but if you think he's this big of a donk and calling with a worse hand frequently, I'm fine with it.

The JTs hand...I prefer folding pre-flop to a 6xOR...though I can see some justification since we're deep and villain sucks. Given our call pre-flop, I don't think I like our action line. Why are we check-raising the turn with a mediocre hand when we just c/ced with a set earlier?

I thought for sure the $8 bet was a flush of some sort, and if he had a diamond he isn't folding (maybe a diamond less than 5) so I called to see if I can fill up and open push the river.

You are check raising the turn after the 4th diamond hit? that seems pretty nuts.

Probably going to $25 is the right play. But I hate that because it almost makes it like a stop and go and I hate having to push this on a blank flop.

The JTs preflop is probably slightly EV- but I have really been forcing myself to play suited connector hands against reallly bad players. They pay off incredibly. So after the flop I thought he could have an overpair, i check raised the turn because I didn't think there was any way that he would lead $3 on the turn after leading $3 on the flop with any sort of hand. I just felt like a blocking bet so I wanted to raise it up.

The river I think I should have pushed (he would have called) but meh.

can we get to a new page already i'm so sick of looking at nate's graph?

I will help, action on the pats steelers? I will give 11.5

today is gonna be hellish...but I'm totally leaving at 2:30 today...**** this place on Fridays!

Just please don't show us the proof...

fcuk, I'll go one step further and say that I just wish Naismith wouldn't show us that stupid John McKay era logo any more in this forum, much less krup's hairy ass.

stakes?

name them.

in for $20

SHIP IT!

Please take a photo of Bucco Bruce tattoo so I can make that my avatar. Thanks.

So what your saying is don't quote it at the top of the next page?

Why Yes



I believe


He's saying


Do not



Do what


I am



About to


do

Lovely.

I hate you all

at least I'll get $20 of those winnings on Sunday

There is a chance you will get the money but there is no way you will get the W

ooooooooo ... in the words of the famous rock group "Sweet" in their mega-hit, "Love is like Oxygen," "I've heard that pride always comes before a fall." Look that shit up.

12-1

I'm pulling for the Pats. Their first loss should be against the Bucs.

Wait.


"Bucco Bruce"?

That is SIGNIFICANTLY gay.
