/edited - the first time around, i mis-counted the outs
Emptyeye
I'm counting 4 outs to the FH.

In any event, anyone 3-bet this flop at all?
Actuary
I'm suggesting w move 2/4 to Micro.
sent pm to Keith.


as far as hand goes, the pot is 6.75 bets on the turn.

If I played the flop this weakly....
I would want to c/r the turn. Folding to a 3-bet if he's not a raging maniac.

I won't fold an overpair in 6 Max, jsut becase the Button 3-bet's preflop and raises and under-board.

Troulble is, I'm not sure after I 3-bet and he caps flop, then I c/c down and hope its overplayed AK-AJ... maybe with 2 icon_suit_spade.gif

I count 8 for sure outs to a FH.


8 to a boat? 2 Js and 2 10s... 2+2 is 4 right? Or is it 8?

if 2+2 is 8, either you should stop drinking, or I should start.

I don't usually cap JJ pf, but i dont play 6max much. I probably check raise the flop, then fold the turn UI if he 3-bets.

but i dont play 6 max much

deleted. I'm an idiot. sorry.

And yes, 4 outs to the FH. I kept thinking we'd flopped the set, don't know why. New Years Eve joy clouding my head.
Actuary
we only have 2 J's, no set.

River: horrible players need to post the most hands.

I lost hundresd of dollars, before having 7 pos months in a row to finish the year (won more in Dec than I lost in Mar-May, the clueless period). I read SSHE in August. It doesn't take much to get good, just study and post the hell outta hands. And read! and give your own opininos and have thick skin.

ok, it takes a little to get good.
rivercardbandit
Get ready for a ton hands. I'm not playing tonight, decided to drink instead and I never drink and play at the same time.

I have thick enough skin, so let me have it.

Think I'll also re-read SSHE, again. Someting apparantly isn't sinking in.

This is actually not a bad idea. 2/4 plays a ton more like .5/1 than it does 5/10, and so on...

anyone with more respect than me on this form (i.e Actuary) want to propose just combining micro limit and limit together like it used to be?

I know i would benefit more from guys like econ-tim, screech, and aseem reviewing my hands. Not knocking you guys, i'm just saying more input never hurt. That and the frequency on this forum is definately going down (maybe it's just the holidays?). Combining the two forums only increases the number of people who see our hands and we get to see more of other people's hand.

I dunno, somone give me some good reasons for not combing micro limit and limit, and i'll shutup. Otherwise, i say we ask them to combine the two forums.

pk:

I like separate forums.
that doesn't keep thos guys from coming here, and they do sometimes.

Don't confuse problem and solution.

Edit: seperate forums make it easier to find the types of hands you want to read about. i'd like a SH/HU forum, too. etc... Your idea has been suggested ad nauseam

The cap preflop is to define my flop play. He doesn't mandatory raise the flop after i take the lead, he will raise however with a better hand (or so i think)

I wasn't really worried about the ten at all. The ten allows me to see if the TP villain still likes his hand so much he still wants to bet after i led the flop.

After I cap, it seems much more unlikely that he raises my flop bet with 88 or less. I won't lie, i didn't think about the spades...d'oh. He has spades about the same amount of times he has a pair higher than mine (or A10s).


I knew this guy was one of the tighter players i played, but i probably should've bet/fold...? a TP will probably just call with QQ KK and the unlikely JJ, and i think AA still raises. flush draws still call down though.

I don't think this laydown is possible unless I know this guy and am playing live

I dont care what the turn is not 3-betting the flop is a colossal mistake. I really wish he showed something like AK or AQ icon_suit_spade.gif so we could all laugh about it.

I've been getting tired of playing tighties like everyone else but apparently this wasn't the time to back down. For some reason i don't respect their play and it usually costs me.

I'm torn on this... I actually liked it better when it was all together, but only because there's just not enough traffic in the strategy sections

That being said, you kinda gotta have separate forums so standard Micro hands don't get blown off as "standard" when there's something a little more subtle going on somewhere else. I dunno.

I try to make it in here as much as I can, but I forget about it, and usually only remember if I've been drinking.

Emptyeye
Yeah, drifting from topic, I do think a lot of time micro-limit hands amount to "bet if you have it, fold if you don't", whereas the straightforward play may not necessarily be the correct one at higher limits for whatever reason.

In any event, I like the seperation mainly because I play micro-limit. wink.gif
screech
I would have called down.
Sluggo
I think micro and limit should be recombined and then split into full-handed and short-handed. When I'm perusing both forums, I'd rather read about a hand at double or half my stakes than a different breed of game.
TheCinciKid
I need to make an effort to get back in here to micro more and try to help out. Since I started playing 2/4 I've been spending most of my strat time in the limit section, but I feel like I'm qualified to help out in micro and thus I should.

One thing that I have trouble with though is that a good many of the posts in micro are six-max and I don't play and hence know very little about six-max. Maybe I'll get back in here more when I eventually start playing six-max at some point in the next couple of months.

Call the turn, check/fold an A river.

Bet/fold a rag, if you're really sure about the tight/passive thing.
