    In Response to Re: post removed : True, but honestly in this situation was orfords flat bad ?
    Posted by rancid
    No his flat is totally fine. He didnt have a fullstack so he can just flatcall and still get all his money in post flop so he doesnt need to inflate the pot pre. There are no real bad flops he is gonna be folding anyway so the hand just plays itself. I do think he should have just called the flop though instead of raising. He doesnt need to protect his hand and can get it in vs a much wider range probably if he just flats and hopes his opponent doule barrells or will call off a river bet where they wouldnt call his flop raise.

    At the start of this, I thought it was quite amusing. Ya know, a clearly inexperienced player (not a rubdown, just an clear obvservation) who doesn't realise where he's going wrong because he's done what he thought was right AND he's won the pot which just helps cement in his mind that 'he did the right thing'.

    That I could cope with, things like that you can learn... what you cannot learn is how NOT to be a complete arrogant, obnoxious, rude, childish idiot who has literally ZERO respect for a single player who has posted here...many of whom would absolutely crush him at the tables.

    I think you've got off to possibly the worst start possible on the forum, I think your entire attitude is disgusting and it's clear that if you keep this attitude you will NEVER progress to being a successful (and happy) poker player. I for one (as I'm sure many would agree) will not be wasting a moment of my time commenting on any hands you post in the clinic ever again as I don't see the point when you are blatantly so ignorant. That shouldnt be a problem anyway though cos you won't need to post in the clinic because you already know everything about the game and are so much better than us all.

    On the topic of you being so much better than us, you won't mind taking me up on a challenge cos you'll so easily take all my money off me. Any format you like, HUs SnGs (any speed), HU cash, sitting at the same cash tables for a a few hours, whatever you think gives you the best chance of taking all my money. I play basically every night Monday to Friday anytime between 6pm and midnight.

    Yeah, cheers, thought as much.
    Even though orford is not a Reg at these levels, would you say he is effectively balancing his range by flatting here

    Two things to say... the fact that you've said 'you should NEVER do...such and such' sums up your hypocritical stupidity. If you do the EXACT same thing with the EXACT same hand in the EXACT same spot everytime, then that's gonna become VERY predictable. And yet you've said Rich is predictable and thus rubbish so how dya explain that?

    Point two... as I said in my earlier thread, you're constantly talking about how bad the quality of players on here are, I've offered you a challenge to put this to the test and you've completely ignored it and asked Rich to close the thread (despite the fact he's not a moderator).

    So come on, will you take the challenge to take me on at any format of your choice to prove your clear surperior skill?

    well i chop and change my plan i can change styl;es i dont always call pre with certain cards and depending on situation i even fold tens ak aq pre depends on who im playin depends on the situation so yeah i know that i will get in trouble if i call with k3 pre but not every time what im sayin is i can play different styles im no predictable and i know im no perfect as i lose aswell a s win why is it such a crime to call with k 3 in this situation you werent there and if rich is bein honest i hardly played any hands i had a tight image leading up to that hand if they gonna be honest. u have the wrong impresiion of me lambert and if ya want game ill play ya ay time m8 poker is a game to make money not fold and wait for aa to come and then lose

    Yeah I'm well up for that, so we'll have you and me, and lets get another 4 players involved (VALOOOOO anyone?) and hopefully Rich if he can fit it into his schedule.

    My only comment on the other thing you said is that you may very well have a tight image but why limp, you wanna appear as tight passive? open limping with about as bad a hand as possible is awful. If you make it 4x to go, then fine, you have your tight image and you can play it like you have a monster, but not open limping.

    Any Takers For The SnG?

    In Response to Re: post removed : GT i posted once on that matter which is correct he called a big 3 bet from me with 86o(maybe wrong not going to read back) how would you have played it different? i gurantee you he would play the same way with Ax which im crushing. also my check shove is obviously a bluff as i dont think i can bet him off but unfortunately he hit it happens. I;ve been commenting on this thread but doesnt mean im complaining AK is easily beaten and in my case often ;)  so how would you play the AK then professional?
    Posted by YOUNG_GUN
    touchy? not a pro, just dont think you played the hand well, so what, I can post lots of hands I didnt play well.

    On that hand, yeah he obv got lucky. But you played the hand in a way you rarely play a big hand (I would think) and you also decided to bluff a guy you think calls too much, in a way that reps nothing. I think it was a bad bluff, could be wrong just my opinion. As for how I play it Im either betting flop for value or if I check Im trying to get to showdown

    As for orford flatting or 3betting, as I said I think he should be 3betting most of the time. Yeah flatting often gets an extra bet on flop, but prob makes it less likely he stacks offshoot.  Bringing limper along is a good reason to flat imo, and I never said he cant flat call here. If 3betting tells offshoot he has KK+ he prob needs to balance his range a bit more
