Good day for poker

Lou, with all due respect, GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR FUCKING ASS!!!!

Your brain has to be warped from all the studying. This isn't NL. I'm not sure what "free card" he would be wanting here. He doesn't wanna give free cards so why would he take one? That hand was played terribly.

Pre-flop: fine

Flop - Bet. Let's say ChokeaBitch isn't a total donkey (I know, unlikely) and raises his Ace. Okay, you don't get the 2nd customer, most of the time but he stays because after looking at the action, he probably had a flush draw. You call and you've got gained 4 bets now. Worst case scenario is he doesn't raise and you get 2 bets. You're getting 4 small bets (2BB) here with the draw in.

Turn - If he raised on the flop, you can check here. He bets, flush draw calls, RAISE!!!!!!! Wow, they both call. You've just made another 4 BB.

River - Lead, call, fold. Another BB.

So, I would've made 7BB POST FLOP playing it that way. Brian made 4.

Limit is about maximizing your value when you've got the best hand. Not pussyfooting around trying to "feel."

Hmm. I still like my play. Can anyone else support or deny Shabi's comments?

And yea, my brain is in rough shape.

[PShabi]

It should be. Mine is too. Different reasons.

[BrianSwa]

I think both plays have their + and - about them. Shabi play seems to maximize profit if you sure you have the best hand. Lou is basicly to protect your money when your not sure you have best hand.


the best play for me I believe is Lou's as I knew nothing about player at the time.

[PShabi]

See, I always assume I'm playing with Donkeys until I have a reason to believe otherwise.

No matter what you believe, letting that 3rd man just call along and not making him pay with that flush draw is not the correct play long run.

Shabi, say what you like, I am now convinced you are from Compton .

So anyway, I'm dating a girl that lives in the hood now, any idea what the best way would be to dodge some bullets.

DISCLAIMER: I just hijacked this MFen thread .

Get a vest.

Get a gun.

Shoot back.

By the way, "hood" in Canada means that they've had a "negro" siting in the last 24 hours.

[GeoffM]

Um, no not exactly.

You are talking about the most multi-cultural country in the world, you know .
