Title: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: Graham C on July 02, 2008, 11:57:20 PM Firstly, I know I should buy in for the full $50. I'm trying to play lots of tables and don't have the money in my Stars account to 9 table at NL50. Secondly, I've posted in Learning Centre so you have to be nice to me and not just call me a donkey ;)
Regardless, it's been a bad night, how should I have played these please Here's the costly hands from me today. I obv played some bad, but comments welcomed, I may learn to lose less next time. We'll start with a positive 1, http://www.pokerhand.org/?2834864 The bad ones 2. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2834893 3. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2834958 4. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2835088 5. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2835207 6. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2835264 7. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2835574 8. http://www.pokerhand.org/?2835589 Shesh, there's a lot of them :( In 8, I sort of tilt shoved.

Standard
2. Standard 3. Bigger 3 bet to about 6, once he 4 bets it a fold or shove, readless i get them in. Calling is not really an option here imo. 4. I would 3 bet here, as played i don't use this line much, i don't hate it though. 5. Standard 6. Standard 7. Bigger 3 bet pre and then wow coooooollllllllerrrrrr. 8. With you stack here, shoving pre is +ev so i would do that. Deffo get it in on the flop. Basically you had a stinker luckwise and played pretty good imo. Title: Re: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: AlexMartin on July 03, 2008, 03:44:15 AM Hand 5 sticks out. Deffo shutdown on the turn, completes everything.
Hand 8 is clear 3et pre to try and get it in. Basically, dont lay full ring, it will drive you utterly crazy and is boring as hell. Oh, and those nights happen, a lot. Title: Re: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: Graham C on July 03, 2008, 09:16:29 AM In hand 8, am I looking to get it all in preflop even with Jacks? I do need to be more positive preflop. Am I looking to get it in with AK and JJ+ in these situations - I mean, shoving for the 3 bet is a bit ott, but if I 3 bet and someone shoves, what range are you calling with? Obv AA and KK are a given, but how low does the range go?
£3.50 on it's way! Thanks guys, good to know I didn't get things that wrong. Will try 6 max tonight instead to see how it goes. I don't mind the full ring playing 9 at a time.

Title: Re: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: Graham C on July 03, 2008, 03:24:23 PM No not scared, I just don't have the roll on Stars to play NL50. I'm certainly not playing out of where I feel comfortable.

I'm certainly not playing out of where I feel comfortable. I know the level is comfortable for you, but you might be avoiding situations where you could be getting your money in as a 55% favourite because you don't have enough to reload (in that account, although you've got it elsewhere). I know, I've done it before. Title: Re: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: jizzemm on July 03, 2008, 03:32:56 PM stars is rigged imo..
blonde FTW.. Title: Re: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: kinboshi on July 03, 2008, 04:08:48 PM stars is rigged imo.. blonde FTW.. blonde is certainly easier than Stars for these level cash games, imo. Title: Re: it's been a bad night, comments please Post by: Graham C on July 04, 2008, 12:23:32 PM I know what you mean, but it's not a problem. I don't mind redepositing if need be and I don't think it's influencing my decision making.
If blonde did PS3's or 24" monitors as part of a reward program, I'd be there now ;) I'm only doing it to hopefully make the Gold level and finally be able to get something nice with all my fpp's |
