    Keep notes! then variance will win for you you cant win every hand though it would be nice but 80 times out of 100 youd win that hand keep smiling

    he was in early position i was behind him. And a min raise was all that was needed to bump up the pot if i hit. If he re-raises bigger pre flop im folding. i min raised on the flop to see if anyone had a part of it then i could make my move it was a probe bet. And if you think that was bad play i think you should look at your game maybe your the type to just go all in with what ever lol

    Dont talk wet im not raising big with that and he was behind me. listen to what i was saying. i was building the pot he only bet the min i raised to see wether i got a reraise. Making comments like makes you sound like a donk if you have coments to how you would play it go ahead other wise be constructive or say nothing

    how does min raising give you any information on what ur opponents have? its a total donk play and everyone on the forum now will think the same!!

    seriously mate you need to take a few lessons, i only charge £40 per hour

    that would be the biggest waist of money anyone could every spend getting lessons from you, get off here you numpty and stop waisting my time id like to see if anyone would call my play as donk play i think not apart from you. Tell me mr poker expert how would you have played it then you havnt said that yet.
  • edited March 2010
    i would have folded pre flop, the hacker flat calls 100 in first position, me thinks hes strong here and you dont have the poker brain that i have to fold, so you min raise, bad play bad read and get your coat cos your leaving pretty soon, as the hacker shows his set!!!!

    hes strong cos he just calls 100 under the gun so you fold lmao and you call me a donk. im glad i dont have your stupid poker brain. That makes no sense what so ever and even if he was strong he wasnt when the flop hit and should not have called so dosnt matter how i played it pre flop. I was expecting a better explanation than that lmao.

    even lovely jubbley has agreed that your play was terrible, sorry dazler but we all learn from our mistakes, what makes me really laugh is that you think QJ soooooooooooooooooted is a good hand pmsl

    lovely jubbley said nothing of the sort and i find you very boring now. You think you know better and it seems you dont. so i will not comment to you any more cos its pointless.

    he said your min raise was terrible!!! are you completely blind or just in 2 eyes?
  • edited March 2010
    pre flop bad play.
    Min raise post flop bad play.
    Shove on the reraise good play.
    just got unlucky when he hits his two outer.
    You've asked for advice and you don't like what you've heard.

    ok for one its got nothing to do with not liking what ive heard i can take constructive critisism. What i dont like are stupid comments calling me a donk. and with the min raise not only am i bumping up the pot if i hit and thinning out the field so only 3 players in not 6. I also am showing strength by raising the min without getting commited and losing a large amount if i dont hit. Its an average hand and is beat by a lot pre flop and i was testing the water. I did hit and the point here is not what i did pre flop whether it be bad or good its what happend after the flop. I raised 4 times the blind in total and im not putting any more than that with said hand. Its not how i always play that hand but it was this time. he was a loose player and had gone all in with rubbbish before hand so if i raise to say 300-400 and he goes all in pre ive lost a big chunk of my stack.

    cant stop laughing at this, will someone polease tell this bloke that QJ sooooooooooted is rubbish!!!!!
  • edited March 2010

    He played queen jack suited, face up. Its a decent hand, it has great potential, but isn't a powerhouse hand.

    The min raise is "sitting on the fence" - you aren't committing to the hand.

    What are you trying to achieve by the min raise? - Tempting someone to come over the top? - Trying to steal the  blinds? - Hoping to see a cheap flop?

    Your raises need to be consistent, if you raise 3xbb with AA, but 200 with weaker hands, good players will pick up on this and you will get crushed. 

    JQs is a good hand to play deep stacked, with small blinds. Time and a place to play it speculatively, and other times, it needs to be played strongly. I'd argue the example you gave, is a time to play it strong, or not at all.

    Btw Im amazed the pocket tens don't raise you pre flop, maybe he smelt a rat with the min raise (I doubt it as he gets it in on the flop) lol

    DOHH

    the min raise is a total joke, i would encourage my opponents to always min raise me cos its one of the worst moves in poker, apart from a nuts min raise for value on showdown, but hey, old dazler is getting all the info he needed by doing it lmao
  • edited March 2010

    lol yeh its not a good play really - its like he didn't know what to do so he just clicked raise - it looks so weak - and it is weak...

    Then again what sort of player is Dazler? will he fold to a re raise? If I was in the blind here, and Dazler did that, I would re pop it make it 650 total, with alot of rubbish hands - If I knew he could fold !!

    I he's a station - then no point (deffo wud with my tens tho)
