    Default Just so people don't think I'm a nit

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    MP3 ($3.65)
    Button ($1.70)
    SB ($1.55)
    Hero (BB) ($11.50)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with K, J
    UTG calls $0.10, UTG+1 calls $0.10, MP1 calls $0.10, MP2 calls $0.10, 3 folds, Hero checks

    Flop: ($0.55) 9, J, 4 (5 players)
    Hero bets $0.30, 1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.30, MP1 calls $0.30, 1 fold

    Turn: ($1.45) 5 (3 players)

    Good calldown? All the draws from the flop missed and I checked the river to induce a desperate bluff.

    I know this quote is in S/S and other books in some form or another... but this should be in a Top 5 list for every poker player, beginner or not.

    ...Good Question........Where am I?
    HH's are from 10NL.......

    You don't play poker at 10NL, you play cards. So, nit=Perfect/Profitable! Imo anyway.

    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    Actually no... I don't consider nit & weak-tightie as the same. Used to... also used to play thousands of hands of break-even or less poker. Not any more. I may start tight, but the benefit of that is usually showing up with something that lets me be aggressive and/or still win at SD if pot-control is preferred...

    If I have you believing I only play it when I got it, you will give it up anytime I show aggression, regardless of what I actually have... take that you...

    ... oh wait, does that make me less of a nit??

    Maybe I'm just a nit with a heightened sense of situational irony....

    ...I don't know what that means either...
