Biggest Pet Peeve

[Charlie Frank]

JackAss Man, the question was never whether you played the set correctly -the question was whether your opponent played it correctly. Raising a 4 flush on the flop and capping it is almost always a good idea. There would be some times when it wouldn't necessarily be a good idea, like if you are headsup and out of position. I missed the bit about him capping it on the turn - that's another story altogether - it sounds like bad play but that doesn't necessarily mean it is. You need to work on his writing skills and the way you describe action on a hand - you didn't even say what his opponent's hand was or what his playing style up until that point was. Let me know if you want me to give you an example of a well-described hand.

JohnBaker, see above. The question was never about his play - show me where he asked "Did I play this set correctly?"

JohnBaker - you said this! Anyone - ANYONE - that makes a statement like that obviously has NO clue how to play limit poker. Considering this is a limit poker thread, it makes you look pretty silly to be offering advice when, by your own admission, you can't do well at it. You can apologise whenever you like.

Buddy, if you are complaining about beats in limit holdem, then you would blow your mind in omaha. O8 would drive you completely bonkers. So it is clear you know nothing about omaha either. Unless you apologise, I will not talk to you again. If you do apologise for being dumb and opinionated (being dumb is not a crime, being dumb AND opinionated IS), then I will teach you a bit about both games.

In summary, the way you learn (and trust me, you guys need to learn) is by being polite and asking intelligent questions. Trying to insult people that can help you is simply not a good idea.
