More selective aggression.

Postby kennyg » Thu Sep 29, 2005 5:17 am

2/4 NL
EP Villian has about $200.

I'm dealt KQo on the button. 2 limpers to me, I decide to err on the side of caution this time, and limp. SB folds, BB checks.

FLOP$ 18 (4 handed)
J 3 T rainbow

BB folds, EP bets $9, MP limper calls. I call.

Most times I will raise in this situation. however, since MP got involved and the price was cheap for the nut draw, I decided to call. (new thing for me.)

TURN $45 (3 handed)
J 3 T 2 backdoor club flush draw

EP bets out $20. MP folds. I raise to $70. EP folds.

yay.

Kenny,

Would u suggest thistype of agression prettey much everytime you get one one of these big draws. I mean its a great play, the only time to use it however is if someone else is putting a good amount of money in the pot. You would not have pushed if he checked,right??

So very true. I like the move, love it infact. I use to make it all the time at NL50, and the end result being a break even player. I think moves like this definitely work, but only once you're beyond the NL100 games.
Poker is silly.

It is not enough to be good at chess, you must also play well.

Somewhere in the world someone is training when you are not. When you race him, he will win.

Oh yeah!! I totally agree. I would never try something like that at 50NL. I am just curious to hearwhat he woulda done!
