viggosen Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Re: two random hands from the $109 - weak play from me HU well you know I would have gone all in on the first hand, and called the second hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaF Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Re: two random hands from the $109 - weak play from me HU Wow - I'm amazed!!!!! Can you explain some of your reasoning for passing these two hands? For me they are absolute no-brainer all ins!!! Ok - hand 1, you didn't post a Small blind? Would assume you had no fold equity (he'd call with anything!!) Your hand is 47.3%, so you actually didn't quite have the odds to go all in, however I still wouldn't have been able to resist!!! Hand 2 - you did have the odds - (50.3% against random hand and it would have cost you 42% of the final pot) I would have gone all in on both - ok lose and you double him up - but by folding both, he's not far off doubled up from his starting point anyway......

guesswest Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 Re: two random hands from the $109 - weak play from me HU First one is a definite all-in, average starting hand HU is jack high and you have folding equity too. Second one depends on your opponent, you have a coinflip at best and possibly worse so if you believe you have +EV as an aggressor subsequently there's nothing wrong with the fold...

robilaruk Posted June 22, 2006 Author Share Posted June 22, 2006 Re: two random hands from the $109 - weak play from me HU simple he is shoving any two, do I want to double him up on random coin flips? no, I want to win, so let him a have a couple of free blinds and let me choose the hand to play at him with. plus once he has built his stack up to 2K (if I keep folding) he is less inclined to shove any two - i know that sounds perverse but it works, if folks are desperate they will call/shove any two, if they believe they can fold a blind and still be OK they will do so, and in my experience that figure is around the 2-2.5K figure. I was going to beat him, that I knew, and here is the hand :) (I folded the next hand, my SB, and he shoved the hand after for another 1600 chips) Damo :cheers ps oh yes - I got a slagging off on 2+2 as well for this - but I am slowly moving away from calling/shoving any 2 HU. As Action Dan said - you always make the most money by playing opposite to what everyone else is:ok ********************************** Hand #339145574 at table: 5 Player $100 NL Started: Thu Jun 22 15:12:57 2006 alvaroadv is at seat 1 with 1450.00 hero is at seat 3 with 8100.00 hero posts the large blind 300.00 alvaroadv posts the small blind 150.00 hero: 7s, Ad alvaroadv: --, -- Pre-flop: alvaroadv: All in hero: Call 1600.00 Showdown: alvaroadv shows: 4h, Qc (high card, Queen) hero shows: 7s, Ad (high card, Ace) Flop (Board: 6d, 8d, 2s): Turn (Board: 6d, 8d, 2s, 5h): River (Board: 6d, 8d, 2s, 5h, 10d): Mainpot: hero wins the pot of 3200 with high card, Ace Wow - I'm amazed!!!!!
