i've played pretty extensively live, but the most consistent live tells i've seen are

- looking at their chips nearing action (strength)
- intensily staring you down (fine line from being a stone...

most top players probably fold these unless there are limpers in the pot already, don't "predict" limpers

i'd say reduce variance by avoiding c/c raises with sc in mp/lp, but if it's a 5+ handed...

he's two bets cold outta the bb, this is something i'd respect mildly. What does he have here that's so dear to him? 22+, 45s+.

I fold and think he's gettin in a value bet hoping someone with...

We both know it is unlikely for him to have a bigger flush, so what's the problem? he'd bet an ace, 2 pair, maybe a k, a set. You have all of these beat. Easy raise

What Fnord said. Some of his tips have helped me crush games that I used to struggle in. Some people are so fuckin terrified of deviating from the supposed TAG style that is so worshipped for...

yep, going to 2nd Fnord's mention for balance here. We NEED to be caught bluffing once in a while especially in limit, the value in having an entire table catching you betting K5o to the river is...

yes.. i've been trying to spread the word about this book too.

Winning in tough Hold'em games by Stoxtrader and Zobags is phenomenal on SH limit play

it's so close it probably doesn't matter, to be honest.

gabe's single post of "poker is all ranges, calling ranges, raising ranges, folding ranges," etc was like, oh my god, for me.

that's tough, but you're reasoning sounds a bit weird. If you thought he wouldn't do that with <=QQ, that means you're calling over 10x the pot to split, or take 20/80 with KK vs AA. Fold

of...

These seem like the stakes where I notice good skill jumps in cash, and I stay out of them unless the games totally warrant playing (2+ obviously bad players). I can usually stack the bad ones but...

heh, basically I lost everything I won earlier this month.. O well, back to donkaments :wink:[/quote]sigh, i guess you'll just have to go back to knocking out 10-30k months at mtts.. oh the life of a...

unlike ripptyde, ISF 6th leveled him and correctly deduced that 7 high was likely in range to be the best hand AND have him dominated.

this move works everytime, until utg calls you and shows JJ+ or some crap, or got gutsy with 33 and calls you. In a 4.40, a lot of players don't consider fold equity.

before making this squeeze,...

if you can't devote 100% of your time to 6-10 hours, don't play mtts. Play multi table sngs or something, but if 3-4 hours into it you might have to go somewhere, don't even bother playing.

Thanks guys, i posted this like last week, but:

feeling like I had misplayed it a bit, I bet 2k on the river to look like a steal or hoping an ace would call/shove me. He mucked it mumbling "i...

seems like a strong turn lead from bb, missed flop check raise maybe? If he beats ace high here he's calling you i think, depending on how quickly you shoved there.

maybe i'm too tight but i've...

h1: first hand turn is ok, river is check/call maybe if person has bet light before, but if he's a rock, easy fold. I can even find a fold to a river raise here

h2: i dont bet this board, but...

2nd level, 50-100 blinds, started with 10k chips

I've played maybe 2 hands, so my image isn't rock tight, but not loose.
villain is loose aggressive preflop, but slows down post flop in most...

I remember in AC i was in a $300 buyin tourney,
4 people in the hand, 1 was all-in
flop came A62 and i had AT, i bet out, one guy says "Ohh you better have the nuts" and both folded
turn came K,...

i just can't tell someone to gamble if their ad says they have a $183 bankroll. I won't do it. If you can find <$1 rebuys, yes, be prepared to play 3-5 buyins, but no more. People get wayy out of...

a bud of mine let me check out PXF, i liked it, especially sheets' videos. The guy knows how to teach, so well he could probably make more money instructing than off poker, i don't really know.

there was a 5-10 reg on VCpoker a long time ago who was pretty good, but then when they made 10-20 he started losing heavily. It got so bad to the point where people in game were like "hey... maybe...

I think giving him credit for QQ+ here is not a big mistake, being the good player who gets pushed around in these spots is better than the bad player who constantly stacks off with JJ when he's...
