If Brian can beat $1/2 L, I Can Definitely Beat It...

[BrianSwa]

what a moron A-7 os with a flop like that nh , the action on both 2/4 and 3/6 is about the same, they play a little better but alot of pre-flop raising.

but I did have the top pair and good draw to flush. What was he thinking 6-10 os lol. He got the free look in the BB but he was a gutshot after that.

[Windbreaker]

Why didn't you reraise after that flop was raised? There's like so many cards out there that are danger cards, and both of them arrive on the turn and river. A flush and a easy straight could have been made. Usually like to price those out, with a strong hand.

[BrianSwa]

read again im stormswa, i raised and was called.

[Windbreaker]

I was actually referring to the original post. But for yours, I don't see why you're reraising on the turn, you have to figure you're beat at that point, if he has K and any higher kicker, you're drawing to 12 outs, no need to reraise, just call...then see the river.

[BrianSwa]

yea I did it because I didnt think he had it I read him wrong it happens I suppose. My one bad call of the day

[2Tone]

Looks like you are killing 1/2! Can't say I am surprised at your success, but this does go a long way to helping me overcome my fear that the players on Stars are so much better than on Party. I have no experience at Stars, but can assure you that you'd have same success at Party 2/4. The only caveat is patience -- I've had a lot of sessions where I don't see anything higher than 2 pair for hours. But when you do get trips or higher, boy are they going to pay off, as you demonstrate.
