How I don't raise the river I'll never know. He just played it so strong I had to think he might have QT. But still terrible play IMO. How many bets did I lose :(

wow

He doesn't raise pre utg with QT.

He's happily raising away at you because he knows you don't reraise pre with QT against a utg raiser.

I'd say you lost however many bets you could've possibly have got in. Can't be bothered to count them but that's how many it is.

errr

disagree and u didnt lose that many bets imo. 107 flops double gutter got there too on river, probs raise at couple more times imo to valuetown him, he should realise he doesnt have teh nuts...........

Just spotted 5 handed. Is this the reason I got an errr or would that be a raising hand at limit anyway?

Dunno about 15-30 but at 30-60/50-100 which i assume play pretty similar you get a lot worse than QT raising from UTG.

Hmmm. Maybe I should have a stab at limit.

I remember seeing a few hands you posted a while back and they looked like they were potentially profitable.

Thanks

Yeah 5 handed QT is def a possibility

Perhaps I only missed a couple of bets

Was trying out for the rake-race on boss, thought multi-tabling mid-stakes limit was the way forward but I'm like 30th in the table...there must be some real mentalists out there!!!


evil - limit is def potentially profitable but prepare to be driven insane!

+1

Been playing lots of FLO/8 lately, my old fave game, its good if you like getting fucked over.

Hugely profitable but last session was 2 tabling 75-150 and 50-100 nice -$6k hour was fun.

umm you won the hand

so you lost nothing and gained a healthy amount

yes you could of raised on all teh way, but chances are you raise he just calls you down anyway.

so allin all don't sweat it. you won

Interesting...bet there's a lot of people who have no clue what they're doing!

Is it swingier than PLO?
