Simply bad variance on what to me would seem like a +EV move by you. The original raiser probably thought they were "somewhat close" to a coin flip thinking you had an underpair, with the added...

Spot On IMHO.


Folding to the river jam with such a strong hand is LOSING poker in the long-run, despite this individual hand loss. Just think about how many more times someone can push you off...

In another thread Thaskalos asked me for the reasons why I have experienced good results this year (currently north of +$10 / hr excluding promotional wins) after about 175 total playing hours.

That is an interesting question. Let me give this some thought before I reply.


Tonight (Friday) on the felt I experienced a very rare occurrence. I think I was in the CO. The UTG raised to...

Glad to hear from both of you!

No poker for me last week as the wife and I drove down to Florida to see her Dad. Looking to visit him again in about 5 weeks when he turns 100.

Poker-wise I...

Poker Variance Can Be Unkind

Just finished both a Thursday and Saturday poker session with an accumulated 14+ hours, and they were brutal. Net loss from both days was $577.

Here are some of the specific hands that I can...

After making the previous post I remembered one hand from the previous session that is definitely -EV. I had 59o in the BB. The 3 other players checked around thru the river, and I mucked my hand...

Will He Learn his Lesson?

Just finished another long session of 1/2 NL at Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races.

Just like Friday night, I endure long stretches of being card dead. Of course this is superior to having...

Another Thud?

After finishing my Friday night bowling league I headed down the back way to the Charles Town races for some late night 1/2 NL poker. I was a little bit apprehensive after my previous session,...

Thud!

That was the sound of a -$339 session of 1/2 NL at Charles Town races after 10 hours of play.

It was inevitable, I had been on a roll the past 2.5 months with something like 10 winning sessions...

When the villain calls your turn bet, the question that you need to ask yourself is what could he/she possibly have here. In 3-6 limit game the answer is that it could be crazy stuff. In 1/2 NL as...

One of my weaknesses that I hope I have done a much better job of correcting recently is to not overvalue TPTK or TPGK (with Aces being the pair). Players at 1/2 and 1/3 are typically straight...

I've been on good run the past month. Have cut my yearly losses to about $250 (or about -$3 per hour). Not earth shattering as the number of total hours is very low (due to a 3-month break), so...

The Rumors are True

You must have "inside" info. ;)

I made my return to the felt at the Charles Town Races tonight. My poker log shows my last game was almost 4 months ago.

I raced off to a quick start, and I was...

I hear your frustration, but the dynamics are so much different in a low limit game vs. a no limit game.

For example, a healthy pre-flop race of $17-$22 is probably better than 50/50 to fold out...
