But what I will say Paul is, ask yourself why you flat pre - it's a 4 bet by me
Once you flat a 4 bet and don't have a pot size bet left, you canny fold whatever the flop is
I 4 bet half my stack Paul, did you not notice that I will not be folding
It really doesn't matter what I had, maybe you can learn something here m8'ty
I was thinking of another hand between you and me, where the betting went that way but you folded in that other hand. I hoped you might think I was trying to back at you for the above hand, I had AA I believe, but don't quote me on that.
Looking back I played the above hand pretty horribly and am probably in for some abuse now lol
Beyond bad.
If you think youre good go allin, or fold, calling pre cant be an option.
I should know better... think it was partly cos it was Rancid, but if anything that probably gives me more reason to call. But yeah with the pot size to his remaining stack, it's pretty horrible to fold.
but don't listen to me - spent last night 5 betting into KK each time - not a good policy
I reckon Rancid knows I'm pretty much the second biggest nit in Nittsville (only after Dudeskin lol), and with how the betting went, I struggle to think of a single hand he has here that I beat on the flop, AK, AA, KK, JJ... doubt he does this (especially against me once I've 3bet) with AQ or TT or lower.
In this case I think I probably saved myself some money but in reality I think I probably should have lost the full BI here. He must know that I can never fold the flop, or at least should never fold the flop and so him sticking the rest in on the flop, knowing he has next to zero FE means it's gonna be more for value and all the more likely I'm behind.
But yeah 5bet jam or fold.
Just thought I'd post because I decided to have my first go at qualifying for Blackpool. I aint gonna be spending much money on doing it this time, if I qualify cheaper then great, if not, I'll just not play at Blackpool.... well, maybe some side events.
So I played my first £5 satellite which finished 5-10 mins ago. 14 runners so there were 2 seats into the semi and 3rd got £19.20. There was a combination of very good play from me and some terrible play from some of the worse players in there. One hand quite late on, it was min-raised, I re-jammed with JJ and villian called off like 80% of his stack with 89off when he was not commited at all.
Anyway, got down to 3 handed, me a guy called Jeff something and cenachav... me and cenachav only had about 8-9k and the other guy had like 24k. Cenachav jams AJs from the button, I happily call on the BB with AK... I hit a straight and he hits a flush
No hard feelings Cenachav, had a good bit of banter through that sat, and I still got £19.20... just deciding now whether I use it to buy-in direct tonight or just play some more £5 sats cos I can probably get more attempts for my money.
I hadn't played a game of chess since I was about 15 or younger, and basically then I only knew the rules in terms of what moves each piece can make but nothing about strategy. But yeah, these last few days I've really got hooked on it.
Any other chess players out there?
My name on there is Lambert180, just thought it would be easy for me to remember and anyone who plays and is on Sky will remember it easily.
Then I made a pretty swift exit from my free entry into the Blackpool semi
Dya think my thinking is sound here?
And yeah I'm up for £2.10 HU games, best of 5. I'm off to bed in a minute, so can't do it now, but I'm free pretty much every evening (except tomorrow night cos I'm playing a live game tomorrow).
It's really hard to pick a favourite format, I really do like them all. MTTs are great when you bink one but I do struggle with handling the amount of variance involved. One thing I can say is that I love live poker so much more than online
Yeah would be up for a game of chess. I play on Chess.com, it's free to sign up, you should give it a go
