Sir Puntalot Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Re: crazy cash game I'm far from a great poker player, but I have played very low level cash games before and put in an enormous raise and it frightens the fcuk outta them. :lol 2 examples was I had AJ and JT and just felt like bullying. A guy raises before me each time, and I go waaaaaay over the top. Bizarrely they both told me they had QQ, 2 different players, then folded, which I did find amusing. It's very interesting reading anyway mole, thanks for sharing. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pocket Lady Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Re: crazy cash game thanks paul' date=' very much appreciated, now that i know how to put in hand history (tx to valiant) i will be able to share some of the experiances and hope they are of help to other pl players[/quote'] Thanks Mole - This weekend I have just gone back to trying STTs as previously each time I had lost a quarter of my bankroll on 10 seater STTs I would play 5 card draw or the cash tables to win the money back and lost the confidence to play them. I have done ok so far and will continue at the same level until I am confident and competent enough to go to a higher level. I thought that maybe I am just a tournament player or could maybe be a cash player,as I go to the cash games to recoup any losses from STTs. I look forward to keeping an eye on your posts to gain any advice/tips. :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valiant23 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Re: crazy cash game this was a hand ive just found which happened a little earlier in the night ( same player) hes going to love me, again i stress this is a winning player Hand #444706528 at table: Table TH 679 Started: Mon Oct 23 01:36:58 2006 AssQuatch is at seat 1 with 0.00 the mole is at seat 2 with 4896.00 Pokergirl_ is at seat 3 with 4750.00 Aurora9 is at seat 4 with 5813.00 SirCassius is at seat 5 with 11350.00 SirCassius posts the large blind 50.00 Aurora9 posts the small blind 25.00 Aurora9: --, -- SirCassius: --, -- the mole: 10d, 10h Pokergirl_: --, -- Pre-flop: the mole: Raise 200.00 Pokergirl_: Fold Aurora9: Raise 600.00 SirCassius: Fold the mole: Call 600.00 Flop (Board: Jh, 8s, 7h): Aurora9: Bet 800.00 the mole: Call 800.00 Turn (Board: Jh, 8s, 7h, Kh): Aurora9: Bet 1800.00 the mole: Call 1800.00 River (Board: Jh, 8s, 7h, Kh, 10c): Aurora9: Check the mole: All in Aurora9: Call 1696.00 Showdown: the mole shows: 10d, 10h (three of a kind, Tens) Mainpot: the mole wins the pot of 9839.00 with three of a kind, Tens (3.00 rake were taken for this hand) Fair play on this one. However I think you are brave calling with what you had after flop and then river. :notworthyWhy? I ask because in a tournament I don't think this is the worst spot to be in. Although the flop has put an overcard it is only one, and still leaves you with outs. Obviously the K was a cooler for Mole, but still left him with opportunites to win easily or get away from the hand. I saw the villain say afterwards that he had AK, but he mucked. If his A is not a heart, then after the turn Mole is 32% to win, as opposed to the villain's 68%. If his A is a heart then he is 11% to win. So, if Mole called a bet of 1800 into a pot of 3600 then he has the correct odds. He can get away from it if another lower heart came on the river, but if the A hearts came then he is losing to one card - the Q. I didn't have the odds at hand. I used the odds calc at poker player, but when I saw the hand being played I thought Mole played it right. glceud - That is a great article. Thanks. :lol :ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmuzeman Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Re: crazy cash game The big games 25/50 and up really are pretty mental. If you watch some HU in those stakes then it really just seems to be about who has the bigger balls tbh, I dont really see how they can ever put one another on hands. Youll get a raise then a large reraise and a call and theyll both have shite if you see it most of the time :lol I have to admit I dont really like it either, it doesnt seem so much about the game anymore but just challenging eachothers bottle and stuff. I honestly think the best quality cash game poker is played at 2/4 in terms of the game. I dont mean all the best players play 2/4, far from it, some of the high stakes players are the best there is, I just like the style of the game better. Probably cos im a full ring guy and I like playing that rather than shorthanded. All the high stakes stuff seems to be shorthanded and HU.

DC Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Re: crazy cash game re: your first example, did you not consider he had a 9 after the flop with his re-raise to 2100? It'd make me think a second for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd make me think a second for sure.[/quote'] No Danny, pre flop raise and reraise tell you he does not have a 9 ( unless he has pocket 9,s) and thankfully he didnt, also if he had pocket 9,s he wouldnt have bet or at least so much.

DC Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Re: crazy cash game ok, but I would've made a strong case for him having A9suited maybe. Well done anyway for reading him as you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
