Maybe limit is a little faster than NL, but I've always heard you're lucky if you get 30 hands per hour dealt in a live game. Some people say 20. If it takes the dealer an average of 30 seconds to...

I recommend Checkyourbets.com for an easy way to track your sessions/hours/wins/losses. It's great to see things in black and white while taking notes. This has helped me greatly so far in picking...

Glad to see you guys don't think I played this horribly. Normally, I'll let go of flush draws quickly when I see a paired board because it's just too easy to make your hand while drawing dead. I...

You should check out the casinos. Most $1/$2 NL tables at the casinos I frequent in St. Louis are pretty soft too.

Oskar,

I appreciate your taking the time to go over this hand in such detail. I want to clarify that at the time of this hand, it had been about 6 hours since I'd stumbled in, I'd had several...

Self control - Tru-dat... Normally I'm very diciplined, but when I haven't played in a while and I get that urge to play, sometimes the beers, ummm, skew my thinking. Working on that :)

As for...

No, but I'm thinking of moving there next year. How often do these games run and where? Do they have poker at the Casinos in Chicago?

I normally just play weekends and haven't gotten my dose for a few weeks... so I break my cardinal rule - showing up after midnight, wasted. I quickly donk off my first BI and slowly bleed off...

The insta 4bet scares me too, but how many players had limped when he made his initial $10 raise (instead of his normal $15)? If it was folded around to him on the button, I can see him trying to...

Isn't your original post rather confusing though. You say that you want to discuss exploiting the telegraphing of SB . 1) You then criticise Fnord for answering that and questioning your play....

Precisely, Baudib! Fnord asked earlier what the ideal situation for this hand was, and this it it. In about 30 times I've made this play with AA-JJ over the past ~15 months (I just play weekends),...

Fnord, reread the HH. The SB folded. It's MP1 who's all in.

I'll go over ranges for the SB later (and what to do if he shoves), because that is important to this play, but for now I'd like to...

Nice forum :cool:

I'm a 1/3 NL weekend warrior who has been taking this game seriously for the past year or so and have been showing a pretty decent profit. I've been working on my fundamentals...
