I posted a while back about attempting to think about the game differently- trying not to get stuck in, "this is how we should play because X says so..." The game is always changing and evolving, so...
Insta-bet for value! If you get raised, say, "thank you for being at my table" and call.
The biggest difference between the good 6maxers and the great ones: Our... uhhhh... their ability to...
I rarely ask too many preflop questions, but here's one for you that a buddy and I totally disagree about:
The limit is basically irrelevant, but to put a number on it, we're playing $8/16, 6max....
my only thing about Stox vs HEFAP/Tannenbaum is the stakes i play. i know its a good thing to have 3 players cold call a raise from the ep player, but it makes it hard to play KJs (something still...

The biggest issue w/ your question, and/or SSHE advice is the comparison between ONLINE VS. LIVE.
Online, tables don't play as loose/bad as live. Live, I'm playing a ton more hands up front. 99+,...
They said it best... and NAILED IT! But thought you'd like to hear it again, so next time, you pump it up!
1) c/r, cap... lead turn - FOR VALUE!!!! AT ANY LIMIT, ANYWHERE, ONLINE OR LIVE!

I actually wasn't focused on the turn too much here, as I was caught waay off guard when you raised river.
You're correct, tho... turn call no good.
Love to see how much thought you put into...
I'm guessing you knew the second you hit the raise btn, it was spewage.
Sounds like a last second, impulse raise... without a whole lot of thought attached?!
1) Standard preflop. I'd check turn, inducing river bluff, calling ANY river.
2) Betting flop, calling down UI
3) Lead flop/cap. Tough river decision UI
Against these guys, I now tend to...
The bets you missed in this hand will add-up very very fast. I actually like leading this flop, hoping for someone to get out of line, so I can either 3bet or C/R turn.
Get rid of this FPS! BET!...
EXACTLY!!!!!! PERFECT BREAKDOWN!!!!!
$8/16 game in tiny So. Cal. cardroom (5 tables). The majority of the players are very loose/bad... VERY bad. Preflop aggression is what it means- no tricks. Postflop is very straight forward and...
LLOOOOLL!
I ignored my instinct, and bet. SB folded, BB raised!
Sometimes the "correct" mathematical play isn't always the one we should follow.
That voice in our ear is there for a...
I'm b/c'ing here.
If you bet and get raised, do you really want to risk getting capped with 2 small pair? Squeeze the river... but 3betting is overplay imo.
As I was writing a reply to my Turn Decision, I began thinking of math VS. read / gut feeling / little voice in our ear.
This topic, IMO, doesn't get discussed enough - especially in today's...
LOL, DD and Chopper!
This is why I love poker so much - When does the "obvious play" get overridden by instinct, gut feeling, or unconventional read?
There's probably no way of conveying my...
On the turn, BB hesitated (for 3 seconds), and stared at me before he checked. Does this change anything?
How can I possibly fold to a c/r from BB? I've still got nut hearts.
He played it terribly. Say, "thank you" for the saved chips.
If you have big hand (AA, for ex.) ... Board Q,Q,J,6,8... and he plays passively whole way until river, where he donks - you're calling...
Live $40/80 at Commerce.
BB and I have ton of history. He's break-even player in the game. He's very tight preflop, but passive postflop. He's raised twice in 3 hours - both times, AA. I rarely...
LOL!
Is Chopper the super tight/ weakish? Sounds like you thought he would never raise that turn w/out it?
You could be up against the tightest player on the face of the earth... and should STILL never fold this here, EVER EVER EVER in a limit game.
I guess this is my question to you as I respect your game. When does a pot cease to be small? It's not going to be a specific BB, of course, and it's all read dependent, but ballpark?[/quote]
