£10 dym, 2 hands, same game......

DOHHHHHHH

Aight the guy to my left is the fish at the table, really poor play at every level so far.

When the guy shoves in hand 1, Im thinking the guy behind me, probably will call, but should I take that chance???? I have a hand which crushes the guys shoving range, so I should try and cash right here right now....right?

Hand 2......again.....the guy to my left, is poor, but I think my shove gets through more often than not, would you wait?????


** Had a few probs posting for some reason, but if you look you can see the stack sizes somewhere. In the 2nd hand, the guys stack size/*balance* is what he had after making the call.

Thanx.

Hand 1 - Yes mate you definately have to call here to end the game. The BB should call the 420 behind you with any two and the hand should be checked down in my opinion always. Of course if the BB is really poor there's a danger he'l shove over you, if he does then you will have to fold and hope he wins, if he doesn't it's not like you're out of the game anyway. If he shoves, say, a J-high flop I would consider calling as there really are players out there who do not understand the co-operation play and will bluff a dry side pot on the bubble of a DYM (!!). I always make a note on anyone who I see who "does not understand co-operation play" as you may need it in a future spot such as this.

Hand 2 - Looks more tricky but I think it can be broken down. (It looks more tricky because you're hand is so poor and you haven't got too much confidence in this guy's ability to fold.) But, the 2 of you have around 4000 chips combined. So the avarage of the other 2 is around 4000 each. Assuming, then, that they're somewhere around even stacked (ie no other short-stack or micro-stack which I think you would have mentioned anyway), the I think this is definately a pushing spot. You should target the other short-stack as much as possible when there's just the two of you and an uponened pot sb vs bb looks perfect to me.

Played them both perfect in my opinion mate. As for the other hand that is a bit shocking to be fair and there's nothing better than being bailey69 there.

DOHHHHHHH

Cheerz JC, I had a full day on these yesterday. (this was the first one - much more interesting spots I could have posted, will do later)

I had a win on the horses at around 3pm, which basically covered my "wages" for the day. So I just chilled out, watching sport, and playing a load of £10 dyms! Quite relaxing ! lol

I love the action round the bubble, but hate the games where the blinds are 150/300 and we're still 6 handed. Hard to find spots to shove. Did come back from less than 1 big blind to cash though

Quite easy too......gonna play a few more this aft I think, may move up to £22 and see u at the tables!!

***Hand one above, the guy had K6, and managed to bink the river after a Jack high flop, and the 2nd hand, he looked me up with a suited Ace, fair enough I spose, gud game DOHHHHHHH. Went on to win 8/9 in a row after that, then lose 3 in a row before bed, DOHH! Only 1 tabling too, see how I get on 2/3/4 at once today.
