Title: [ X ] I run so bad!
Post by: Girgy85 on July 08, 2008, 12:48:48 PM
Playing a local donkament down under, equlivent to UK pub poker!

Blinds are 1000/2000 i have 20k in chips down to 10 players top 5 get paid with $400 for 1st place (which i could really of done with winning!)

Im dealt  Jd  Td and limp in and see a flop with just the BB

Flop  Kd  6d  Ks BB bets 2000 and i flat it.

Turn  9d Bingo card for me and the BB bets out 4000 i weigh up what to do and push all in for a futher 9k ( I didnt put him on a FH or Bigger Flush but was hoping he had trips)

BB tanks for 2 minutes and the calls flipping over  9s  6c  WTF!! hes shouting 9!!! and 6!!!

River  9h OBV!! Fck my life!! Great call sir!!

Its not my play that im bothered about here!

I limped to try and see a cheap flop and gain the maximum if i hit a hand!

Have to agree, ok bad beat 50p, but why are you limping with  Jd Td. . . If you want in the pot with that hand then jam the lot in..

Well look at your own play before you judge others obv!

Think how you could have avoided this altogether..

Well you can't change someone else's play, only your own.

IMO you made 3 decisions, pre, flop and turn, all 3 were poor.

How would you have played it then?

Apart from jamming Pre!


Title: Re: [ X ] I run so bad!
Post by: action man on July 08, 2008, 01:40:15 PM
[  ] he would have played it without jamming pre


Title: Re: [ X ] I run so bad!
Post by: Horneris on July 08, 2008, 01:40:57 PM
Jamming pre is the only play tho mate, so no other option.

If i jam it in pre then it obv gets through!

I was obv wanting all the chips to go and as i knew he was drawing pretty thin and through bad play i got outdrawn.

I know i shouldn't criticise the call but he was only beating total air!!

Ok we have gone through the pre flop aspect of the hand, 2 questions, why on earth do the flat the flop with a fd and 2 effective overs? Why do you jam when you hit?

This is top quality pub poker here!!

I have played with this guy numerous times, i knew he hadnt hit the K and wanted to make my flush before commiting to the pot.

And i jammed when i hit as i was happy to take the pot down also hoping he was gong to call with an inferior hand which he did do!

Ok so we know he doesn't have a K, this means any J T or diamond will win for us (we will hit approx 50% of the time) so we can jam and win the pot right there, or we can jam get called and win an overlayed race.

Now when we hit and have him probably drawing very thin you want to jam, you weren't happy to take what was in the pot before but now he has only committed an extra 4k you want to take it down? This is the point where you should be calling to allow him to get more chips into the pot.

It seems to me like you are playing reverse poker or something, trying to juice the pots up when you are behind then trying to close them down when you are miles ahead!!

Think you have hit the nail on the head there! Something il take a look at in my game!

Thanks for the advice. Im just a recreational player so its good to be given advice on such matters so i can avoid these situations when they crop up again! Cheers  :)up

[X] somebody hasnt played pub poker in Australia!  rotflmfao

If they connect with any part of the flop they are usually seeing the turn and river cards. If he/she is drunk they are definately seeing the turn and river cards at any price lol.  rotflmfao

It aint poker folks its 5 card pub bingo.
