generally happy with my play in the 20.05, £ 2.30 was 3rd in chips when the chip leader flatted my minraise with Q3 suited and i flopped top pair and the nut flush draw on an AQ3 flop. he housed up.
so a fustratingly small cash:TeddyBloat011£3.98 + £2.67 Head Prizes2
still got lots of spots where i make small errors that can add up, here i knew i left value on the table even as i clicked call. i was new to the table but still knew enough that he cant have AQ or a set here and the A likely improverd his hand, yet i just call. yukitty yuk. really can't explain it, pre flop i flat as i've been spewing chips by 3vetting too much in Bhunters recently. i was happy to play in position. but the river play...flame away.
here i get into some what i consider to be marginal spots with KQo. is this a hand we want to be peeling given the blinds. in the first example the initial raiser was being quite active, but i had only been sat at the table for a couple of orbits:
Think its a great idea and a great incentive for players to log their cashes and have a team behind them for a extra push once you get to that elusive final table etc.
Also i remember playing you on a cash table Trev and you have a good game on you mate so any advice anyone gets from the captain you should all def take onboard.
Best of luck all.
Nice to have a player of your caliber posting on our team thread.
Personally i hate cash & Love MTTs....but in the back of my mind, I know i should be playing cash more often.
I've dabbled a bit just lately at NL100 and don't feel too out of my depth, so hopefully we can make a transition and do a little of both ....Cash & MTTs.
Thanks for popping by Dom (Wanna Sign Up?) hopefully see you soon
Good Luck at The tables
.I do Darts on a Thursday Night so not around very often, but well done on your cash
I will base my analysis on the fact that you have called all thse with speculative hands........
Hand 1.
Based on the blinds, I don't mind the call pre-flop, however, having hit 2nd pair here, I don't like the flat call, I would much prefer to re-raise the flop with 2nd pair. If he calls we can check fold and save ourselves a few chips 1800 chips, if he folds to the re-raise we take down the pot.
Hand 2.
We have a raise pre-flop, so are we really putting oppo on a 10 or an 8 Here?
Once you bet and oppo calls, alarm bells start ringing, however, once the third 8 comed on the turn, we can never put him on quads, so the ony possiblility is a speculative 10 which is most unlikely based on his raise pre-flop, so I think we should bet the turn when he checks and take down the pot or fold to any action.
Hand 3
I don't mind seeing a flop, after that I don't mind the fold, however, I would have to question why, someone would bet 200 into 1500 & another player calls 200 into 1700 .....looks pretty weak don't you think? Maybe we could take this pot down to a decent re-raise?
I'm sure someone will be along to tell me i'm all wrong but, but i'm only saying it as I would see it.
When you call with these types of hands Teddy...What is your plan? Do you have one?
If not....I think we should, otherwise we need to start folding them pre-flop
A lot of the time oppo will also miss the flop, so from that point of view, if we are more aggressive pre-flop, it gives us so much more chance to take it down with a continuation bet.
Best of Luck at the tables.
Rightly or wrongly, I tend to see as many flops as I can and as cheaply as possible and i'm i'm constantly surprised at how light some players can get it all in.
Someone once moaned at me at the tables for getting 150BB's in pre-flop with my monster hand, but when we know we are going to get called lightly just for our head anyway, I really don't see any point playing our monster hand slowly in this format.
Have a spot of analysis for you guys from a live event I played about a month ago, would be interested in feedback...
£250 buy in torquay poker series main event. final table, 7 of us left, i've got about 300k in chips he has about 450k. Blinds are at 4k and 8k, AQsuited in the sb i raise 3x, he reraises double, i call. flop comes 678rainbow, i check, he bets, i reraise to about 90k he calls. turn comes a 9. i shove the rest of my stack...about 160k, he tanks for like 15 mins then calls me with.....
AK!
blank on the river and he wins! bad call or soul read? to my mind i played it like i had a set,maybe i should have shoved the flop, then he has less value to call but I think this play looked stronger?!
I had built a solid rep over the 2 days of the event, although I had shown a huge bluff about an hour previously, did this go against me perhaps?
Soul read? Guess it must've been!
Sure, why am I shoving there with AQ is a valid question, I honestly knew he hadn't hit and that he would re-raise me out of the bb pre flop with anything from QJ upwards really (based on information gained earlier) so was fairly confident that at best he had AK
Thats cool, thanks guys
I think if i didn't have the guaranteed £1000 prize there I would have decided against the risky bluff to be fair, but the pot was so big by that point it was a chance to have a tournament winning stack in front of me haha...Cyke got greedy!
£250+£25 but yeah the Genting. was a great event with some really good play over the 2 days
