Title: HU cash hand
Post by: AdamM on March 08, 2013, 12:29:27 PM
Don't use hand analysis board at all, but decided its about time I did.
I'm going to try and put a range of hands up from a variety of online, live or even pub games to be ripped apart.
Expecting to be playing everything 5+ years or of date :-)
Need to relearn the game.

First one is a .25/.50 pub cash game
Was full ring bit now HU on account of villain hovering up all the chips.
He's sat with £80, me with £35
He's switching from LAG to LP but play everything and shows air regularly.
I've been nitty throughout and have opened up a bit since HU.

He limps pre.
I make it £2 with  Jd  Td
He calls

Flop  3h 3s Tc

I open £3
He flats

Turn Jh
I open £6
Makes it £22 saying "I don't think you have a Jack"
I ask him if that's what I need?
He replies "you could have a 10"
I ask does it matter if I've paired the 10 or Jack?
He replies "course it matters"
I say "you could have Ace 3. It wouldn't matter then."
"I haven't got Ace 3" he says and shows his friend. "Tell him I haven't got Ace 3"
Mate doesn't react.

I put the chip in.
He rolls over Q3 and holds.

Probably always going broke, but do you play it differently, or get anything else from the speech play?

yh speech play, = big hand every time almost in my experience. People aren't confident enough to talk like this when they bluffing or unsure of their hand, imo.

the speech "i don't think you have the jack" then raising is the strongest tell in the book. I would be hating life with a medium or weak 3 in this spot.

he's basically pretending that he's raising because he doesn't think you have anything, rather than raising because he has a good hand.

the classic rounders line "yeh im allin because i don't think you've got the spades" when holding nines full.
