Take away the 5% rake and thats a long term profitable call imo.
airwalker... its not about the strength of my hand, its about how it compares to the strength of his range. If i know for a fact he has 72o and shoves... then i will 100% call with 73o because i will be about 70% favourite to win the hand.
The kind of hands he has been shoving are normally worse than aj so he had a good chance but if he was only shoving with top top cards or high pairs then you would think about it a bit more.......i think
As for playing the game the object with cash is to have more than you started with when you sign out isn't it?
You don't have to get all the cash on a table do you like when you are playing for chips you have to have them all?
Against this clown - 100% call, if he has the goods (even clowns get hands sometimes) so be it. Reload and try again. Most of the time you're in good shape.
Obviously, if it's a tourney, 100% fold.
ps hi blackfish mate,pllleeaaassseee tell me you called.dav
this is not a call, lets pretend that they are both sat with 1k each, is it a snap call then? no it is not its an instant fold so cottlad stop making out this is a call, anyone who calls here deserves to lose!!!
Your calling this all day long against someone with his table image. I'm going to assume your a tournament player Trip5 as you can't seriously consider folding here against the oppos range
The cash is irrelevant - Would i call for £1k - No because £1k would keep my kids in shoes for a year (well almost) so that is a disproportionate amount for me to lose, this is the reason people play within their roll, so they can fully forget the money and just make the decision. Your example only works because you would be scarred to lose £1k.... so lets swap it the other way.... If your both sitting with £1 on 1p blinds do you call AJ then against a guy whos been shoving you with junk and sucking out?????? yes of course you do because your beating his range.
If you were making the call for £1k then £1k is an insignificant amount of money to you (or your an idiot). As the money holds no significance then this purely comes down to if you believe you are ahead of the raisers range. You are and therefore you call....... Simples
AJs v top 30% of his range = 60.51% v 39.49%
If you take into it the 5% rake then anything over 55% favourite is a profitable call and this is why its a call.
webby you are so wrong....look at some of the names who have posted call and then look at the games they play. these aren't guys who mess around on DYMs.
you simplified the call by paying attention to the loose players habits,
i have seen your double up stats you know the game as well as any of the rest
of the good players on this site,
you will always be in profit the way you play and manage your br,
being a good player is easier ,
then been a good br manager !
Nice to see your computer's still in one piece ;o)
The important thing is i learnt the sort of calling range i should have when playing against players that shove like 30%-40% of their range... its basically big aces... like A9s+ ATo+ and mid PP, i think it was like 77+ roughly.
In Response to Re: Cash players... please resolve this argument for me:: haha good pic... i just sat in the corner and cried instead.
