Hi phil
I suppose the beauty of the game is there is no one correct way of playing and we all have different styles....your point is entirely valid and in hindsight possibly the better option...As you know i have always been a reasonably conservative player much like Richard....but I have over the last six or so months added an aggression factor to my game that I found has served me well generally..... i think at the moment I ride high on the confidence of recent results and feel I can pull serious moves without consequence...nothing like coming down to earth with a bump...  i have pulled this move on previous occassions to combat the now vogue squeeze play...by flat calling an early raise and then coming back over the top of the squeezer...it is in essence  a high risk manouver and your read has to be good and can only be attempted with a big stack but i have found it usually comes under the heading of.. ' a bet you cant possibly call '  without the obvious 2-3 hands
My read on the squeezer was spot on...i thought he wasnt that strong and had seen him calling raises out of position with the old favourites Q J & K J...
Unfortunatley you cant really factor in the guy who still has 20K back will happily call that bet with the monster that is
A J...... sigh...

The player concerned is a serial lunatic and lets be honest mate there is not much wrong with your game at the moment
Perhaps in the end it was a good thing and remind me to slow down a bit...like you say at that point I already had ftable chips...hey ho.....back to school..still lots to learn LOL

The most insidious of rules are those that aren't rules at all.
They are the limitations that we invent for ourselves

Great read Rich, well done.

I'll try & do one later today - well two, one for the £300 (17 words will suffice) & one for the £100. (War & Peace).

Make sure you tell them what a fool you were for turning down the 3 way deal and losing out on £500.

All because of your ego as me and Kev was watching, tut, where is the bankroll management ?

And you, Sonny Jim, are trading on very thin ice my friend. You WILL be sorry. My Diary is poised to expose you. And your ignorance of 4 letter words beginning with "F".
