bencathers
I've been playing very lag and been pissing the table off. Here are some play back against my hands... comments... this is my first try at NL as I'm usually a limit player and NL tourney player

Also, I always buy in short-handed and proceed to lose my first stack by pushing AI with flush draws, gut shots and bottom pair no kicker just to ruin my image. Its fun to purposely lose 20 (and yet, times I try to lose but still win with people calling me with Ace high) and then run up to 150-180

I knew my table image was good with this banter:
spraytech said, "you raised me with that"
spraytech said, "thanks for the money"
and then later when I made a bluff and was called the entire table kept saying "nice call"

Miffed22001 is on a distinguished road
Hand 1.
Nicely played. Id play that the same way.
Hnad 2.
I'd fold that preflop, even being lose. Still nicely played again thereafter.
Hand3.
With the hand i have i may very well push the turn. It looked like only a pair of weaker aces or the flush draw hence my push.
hand4.
Nicely played id be surprised if opp laid down kings here.
hand5.
If opp wasnt so weak and dumb on the flop he would never had gotten himslef in this situation. Again nicely played. Id call here with that hand too.
hand6.
I still bet my draw on the turn, thinking my ace is also good. Nice river call.
hand7.
This is how we loose players make money. When people dont give us credit for hands
hand8
standard
hand9
i hate reraising AK so id have folded on the flop with no preflop reraise. So i cant comment on this
hand10
aggression pays
hand11
Not sure. i like the aggression and if u had a read then id play the same way. Still once they give you control of the pot id play the hand similar
hand12
rofl. Again they just wont give you credit for holding the goods. Its so easy to get paid from these donks!
hand 13
easy call. Pay him if he really has it, but i cant see him open pushing the trips.

Please sit at my table.

Your active style of small bets can be effective agaisnt weak players, but I'm seeing bets that tip hand strength and way too much missed value, particularly on bigger streets. Bet in line with the pot.

The 35s hand is horrible. 4-bet to at least $15 and be willing to play for stacks in that spot. Players call too much, hence you MUST be willing to bet big when you have it.

Thanks for the comments. The only reason I re-raised with AK is because my read was the person was getting fustrated and had a mid to low pocket pair (I put them on 77-10-10... this person was one of those donks who limped with KK, AA).

I wanted to demonstrate real strength so I could push them off their hand on the flop/turn, unless they hit a set, which I would easily read (their only set they check/raised someone who min bet AI). I re-raised on the turn trying to rep the Q or J, but realizing I also had a straight draw and the A/K. I sucked out on the river but my read was dead on.


And here is another fun hand when people are so sick of being re-raised. But it really doesn't matter since Im sure all the money would of been in on the turn anyway

Fnord, you know I'd run away from your table if I saw you sitting at it. I specifically look for 50NL tables that have 3-4 weak-tight players with small stacks so I can do this with little risk... I know this wouldn't work at 100 NL+ because its simply not strong enough yet

I've mainly been a tag limit player who is attempting to learn LAG online. At the B&M's (mainly foxwoods) I play a tag style at 4/8 and 5/10 that still works
