I bet Assani will say you weren't aggressive enough pre-flop. If you raise rather than just call, you weed out hands like that, and you perhaps have a better gauge on what is left in the hand. I think its generally good to play hands like mid and small pocket pairs aggressively preflop, the idea being that you weed out nonsensical hands like that one and only keep up the big cards. When a flop like that hits, those big cards are the ones you want in the pot with you -- particularly big pocket pairs. That's easy money.

True, but the last time Villa15 had raised only $1 he had AA.I guess I was more focused on catching up to him than what others had.

True, but the last time Villa15 had raised only $1 he had AA.I guess I was more focused on catching up to him than what others had.
After 2 tableing $100 NL for an hour ended up down $40.So if it wasn't for that $75 loss on that hand it would have been +$35.

Need to get a little more aggresive preflop I guess.

 
Lehigh98, I have absolutely no problem with how you played that hand, and I most likely would've played it the exact same way.

Otis, I rarely, if ever will re raise with average pocket pairs. Nearly the only time I'm raising with average pocket pairs are when its been folded around to me in LP because at that point, there are no opponents with good hands who will pay me off if I hit my set so I'm content with just betting what is likely the best hand and winning the blinds. Even if there have been a ton of limpers and I'm in LP, then I'm just limping and hoping to hit my set.

Hey Assani:Just a question -- as I suggested above, if you raise it up here pre-flop, don't you likely avoid this situation?
Pocket pairs get paid off when you hit a set and someone else in the hand hits their hand. If you're going to eliminate people preflop by raising, then you're narrowing the chances that the second half of that equation happens. Yes, you're correct that I'd eliminate that hand by raising. I'd also eliminate all of the people who flop 2 pair or top pair when I hit my set too, thus negating the profitability of pocket pairs.Pocket pairs are low risk/high reward. By raising preflop suddenly you've raised your risk with a hand that 7 out of 8 times, you're going to not be looking good after the flop.

If there are a bunch of limpers to you, and you're in MP/LP with a small pocket pair, its going to take a raise to about 6x BB to knock out hands like suited connectors. So you're risking 6x BB on a hand that 7 out of 8 times you're not going to feel confident with after the flop? No thanks.

I should've recognized the straight draw and checked the turn here...I made a huge mistake, but my mistake was not to not raise preflop imo.

Good points. Thanks for the explanation. If I played things more straight I probably wouldn't have the problems I have -- I guess that sometimes my instincts tell me something different than what good sound theory would.

If you're going to eliminate people preflop by raising, then you're narrowing the chances that the second half of that equation happens. Yes, you're correct that I'd eliminate that hand by raising. I'd also eliminate all of the people who flop 2 pair or top pair when I hit my set too, thus negating the profitability of pocket pairs.Pocket pairs are low risk/high reward. By raising preflop suddenly you've raised your risk with a hand that 7 out of 8 times, you're going to not be looking good after the flop.

If there are a bunch of limpers to you, and you're in MP/LP with a small pocket pair, its going to take a raise to about 6x BB to knock out hands like suited connectors. So you're risking 6x BB on a hand that 7 out of 8 times you're not going to feel confident with after the flop? No thanks.

I should've recognized the straight draw and checked the turn here...I made a huge mistake, but my mistake was not to not raise preflop imo.
Good points. Thanks for the explanation. If I played things more straight I probably wouldn't have the problems I have -- I guess that sometimes my instincts tell me something different than what good sound theory would.
Don't get me wrong...I like to raise in a lot of spots, especially if there are limpers in the pot because limping signifies weakness to me. However, pocket pairs are the one situation where I'm rooting for someone else to hit their hand when I hit mine because I'm almost always ahead and my hand is very deceptive. I'm sure there are other successful players that would agree with you however. Thats what makes poker great.

I should've recognized the completed straight draw and checked the turn. That way I get a free draw to my full house, and then I can probably call a smaller bet on the river without it costing me my stack. I was too focused on the flush draw and the fact that it hadn't hit on the turn.
 
Day 10

2/12/06

Up before noon(thanks a lot Krysten), might as well start playing right away. Have a basketball game at 7:00, but other than that I'm free to play. Gonna start off with ring game and will play in a $320 MTT on Party at 1:00.

A quote from Theory of Poker to provide inspiration for today:

"It is much harder to make that fold if you are upset because you hand was outdrawn. However, the money you save by folding instead of calling adds to your winnings for the night or for the month. I actually derive pleasure from making a good fold even though I have lost the pot."

After his river bet, I sat and went through a list of hands that he might have called with preflop and determined that it was more likely that I had him. Guess I was wrong.

Very nice situation I found myself in here. I think the ace might have cost me a bit more(probably he had an overpair), but I can't complain. FYI, I've completely owned this KohSamet guy the past few days and put him on tilt quite a few times.

How weird is this? He insta-folds as soon as it gets to him on turn even though I just checked!!! Usually that'd be a good thing but not when I have the nuts.

Alright, I'm done for now. Had a pretty bad session, losing a little over $3K.

11:00 now. Had fun playing basketball- led my team in scoring and assists and took home a 2 point victory....but damn I'm out of shape. I need to start working out again. Anyway, I'm exhausted, but I'm going to attempt to 6 table for a while.

Not the way I wanted to start things. I put him on trip 5s, and figured that he couldn't lay it down, so I pushed on the river. Never figured he was that strong.

Taking a break. That was a short session. I'm tired. Might be back later...not sure.

Ok, its a little after 1:00 now, and I'm back...feeling good now. Gonna change things up a little and play a heads up match on Stars. Playing "BBJ" for $1000+30 right now.

Well I lost...I made a raise with A-10 and the guy quickly calls. I push on the flop of Q-K-4, and the guy tells me that it was a misclick for him to call me preflop. But he has a pair of queens now so he has to call the rest. He calls, I lose. Oh well.

Alright, back to the NLHE ring games for me. I'm gonna come out aggressive here.

Here is me being aggressive.

I should've recognized the straight draw and checked the turn here...I made a huge mistake, but my mistake was not to not raise preflop imo.
What would you have done differently on the turn? Would you really have check/folded a set to a turn raise when the only hand that could possibly beat you is 5-7?
I should've recognized the completed straight draw and checked the turn. That way I get a free draw to my full house, and then I can probably call a smaller bet on the river without it costing me my stack. I was too focused on the flush draw and the fact that it hadn't hit on the turn.
See, I think this is a fascinating hand, because I think most of us would have lost our stack here. Check/call seems like a really weak way to play a set on the turn with nothing but a low one gapper on the board and a face card, and it seems like you're inviting flushes. - The board will only pair ten out of 46 times on the river.

- The board will only flush about eight out of 47 times on the river (ten, really, unless he has the other two flush cards).

- Only the three of clubs would give you the boat and him the flush.

- If the board pairs on the river, you won't get paid as well by the straight or flush.

- If he has, say, KQ, you won't get as much in the pot on the river as you would have if you value bet the turn.

Do you really play this conservatively in a ring game when there's a small pot?

Perhaps I am just using results oriented thinking here. However, I am not advocating check/calling, but rather checking the turn to gain information. Then if he checks the river, obviously I could value bet.I think I'm more disappointed in myself for not even considering the straight possibility before I bet on the turn. I was so caught up in the flush that I didn't think about it.

Addittionally, even if he doesn't have the straight(and we just gave him a free card), then we can make up for it because our hand has a ton of added deception now by showing weakness on the turn, so hes more likely to try to bluff the river or call our value bet after he checks.

I can easily see your argument though, and I don't necessarily disagree.

 
Sweating your PP tourney. GL
Thanks a lot man. Yesterday I played in this same event, and while I busted out early, the table I sat at was one of the softest tables I've seen in a tournament in a long time. Hopefully I can bring home a better result today.
 
Quick question for you Assani.

How do you handle the middle pocket pairs (9s, 10s) when its checked or limped to you?
In LP if its folded around to me, I'll always raise and try to win it there. If its limped I'll usually limp myself and try to win a big pot.In MP sometimes I'll limp and treat them like a small pocket pair(just trying to hit my set and win a huge pot) and other times I'll make a standard 3x BB raise if its been folded to me. Maybe about a 50/50 split here. If there are other limpers ahead of me, then I'll limp as well.

In EP I'll usually limp with 9s. Every now and then I'll raise with 10s from EP.

My general rule is this: Mid pocket pairs are a hand in which I want other limpers in the pot and I want to have them catch a hand while I catch my set so I can win a huge pot. So usually I won't want to raise. The only exception is if I'm in LP and theres not a lot of limpers...in that case, its likely that you won't get pair off even if you hit, so its better to just win the pot then and there with the best hand.

Of course there are a ton of ways to play this here, and you have to take into account that because of my aggressive style, my raises aren't always as respected as some others, so me raising with a hand like 99(a hand in which I'm not going to feel comfortable that I'm ahead the majority of the time after the flop) doesn't accomplish a ton.

Okay. I forgot about your blog. Thanks
No prob man. Thanks again for the sweat.FYI, to you or anyone else who ever sweats me early in tourneys: When I'm deep in a tourney, I'll stop multi tabling and just concentrate on the MTT. But early on, I'm usually playing 5 or so other tables, so I don't always have the opportunity to watch the hands I'm not in and study my opponents. If you guys pick up anything on my opponents, no matter how insignificant you think it may be, feel free to let me know.

There's a reason why they call it a "deceptive" straight when you hit with your small one gappers - it's such an unlikely hand to consider that most people don't and probably shouldn't. Maybe the way you're describing playing is better - or maybe if you overbet the pot on the turn and run into aggression you either win or lay it down right there. I don't play a lot of ring games, so I am legitimately asking if you really think check/call on the turn was the right play here because there was a small chance of the straight, when there was a flush draw out there.

I'm not too upset with the way I played it, but I wish I would've considered the straight first. I called very quickly and didn't give it nearly enough thought. I don't think the straight was all that decpetive....its not like it was a gutshot. I probably am just being overly critical, but I think its always good to at least consider alternative plays.
 
Assani- Do you keep record of how you do in cash games vs. MTTs? If so, let's see it. Would you be better served sticking to one or the other?

 
Assani- Do you keep record of how you do in cash games vs. MTTs? If so, let's see it. Would you be better served sticking to one or the other?
In the past I havn't kept very good record of anything at all, although I would be 99% sure that I have won more in MTTs than in ring games.During this challenge I am up about $6K or so in MTTs due exclusively to my one good finish and the rest has come from cash games.

I don't think I'll ever play one exclusively because I think they compliment each other well- cash games are very steady with lower variance; MTTs provide exciement and a chance at a big score.

If I had to rate my skill level at each, I would say they are pretty even with maybe a slight, slight edge going towards MTTs.

I used to think that STTs were my best game, but I've found the variance to be far too high there, and ironically enough I never play those anymore aside from an occassional $1K or $2K just to keep things interesting.

There are 3 general situations:Hands in which I'm the aggressorHands in which my opponent is the aggressorHands in which I have a monster hand(and it doesn't matter who the aggressor is becasue I'm just trying to maximize my value).The strength of my hands really doesn't matter at all in the first two situations. I could have 2-7os and miss the flop or I could have top pair with an ace kicker. I don't like to play in pots in which my opponent has assumed the role of aggressor...it puts me in a scary situation where I don't know what I should do or how I will react. I don't know which cards are outs for me or if I'm ahead of behind. Big pots are lost this way imho.
How do drawing hands fit in here? Your comfort zone seems to be when you are attacking. With that said, do bet your drawing hands on the come? Or do you not get involved with them at all? Tried looking through some of the HHs, but I don't see alot of examples of you playing flush/straight draws. Is that a function of the the stakes? Is it just not profitable to play draws at your level?

>You have options at Table 65597 Table!.
From Phil Gordon's Little Green Book"The fourth raise means aces.

When I have a lot of chips in comparison to the blinds, I nearly always try to make the third raise with KK so that I can get away from the hand if my opponent makes the fourth raise all in. This requires a bit of planning on my part, as... I have to call if I'm getting better than 4.5:1 odds.

As a corrolary, if I believe that my opponent is good enough to lay down their own kings, queens, or A-K to a fourth raise, I'll often just smooth-call the third raise when I have A-A. When the flop comes with three rags, I'll almost always bust him."

This seems almost exactly like what this guy did here by smooth calling your raise preflop. In lower stakes, you'll usually get that caller with your aces, but he correctly realized that you'd push the flop if you got a chance.

I bet he was sweating when he saw that Q, though, because the hands you were most likely to have were KK and QQ (with AK and AA less likely because he had two of the aces).

From the hands he has shown here I don't think he plays draw hands on the come - he probably plays them passively or folds when met with aggression unless he is outright bluffing, the closest he has shown are low sets, playing passively ("on the come") for a boat.

Drawing hands are great bluffing hands because they aren't pure bluffs(they are semi-bluffs, which means you have something to fall back on). The reason I like bluffing with drawing hands is because you can re raise his raise. Allow me to explain:Flop comes 2-4-Q. You're first to act against one opponent. You bet on a bluff. He raises. Now with an ordinary bluffing hand, you'd most likely have to fold here unless you truly believe that hes weak. But with a hand like 3-5, you can put in a solid re raise, which could easily win the pot right then and there from a hand like QK.

In LP, if it is checked to me, I'll usually check with a drawing hand to see a free card unless I raised preflop. In that case, I'll sometimes bet again to try to win the pot there. If its bet to me, I love the re raise, which often times will make him check the turn, which gives you the river for free. Or if you hit on the turn, sometimes he will try a check raise trying to represent what you actually have- a fabulous situation for you.

And then there are some times when hands simply must be laid down. If a guy makes a big bet which isn't giving you good pot or implied odds on your draw, and his bet signifies enough strength that you don't think you can lay it down, then it must be laid down.

I rarlely like to simply call a bet when I'm on the draw because it makes my hand pretty obvious if it hits, and I'm not as likely to get paid off.

Of course, all of this can change depending upon the situation and the opponent. And even more importantly it depends upon how many opponents you are against. Nearly everything I've said here assumes that you are against one opponent only. If against 2 or more, then I'd advocate just calling more because you're getting good odds and you really don't want to chase one of them out but not all of them.

very good points. The only thing I'd argue with is that the blinds are not small compared to the stacks here. With the max buy in being 100 BBs, the blinds are nearly ever small enough compared to the stacks to get away from this situation imo.Against easier competition, I'll nearly always raise every chance I get preflop with aces. But you're right...much like he did, sometimes its better to call instead of making the 3rd or 4th raise preflop because you need to play a bit deceptively against stronger opponents.

BTW, how is that book? I've heard lots of mixed reviews.

 
Lehigh98, I have absolutely no problem with how you played that hand, and I most likely would've played it the exact same way.

Otis, I rarely, if ever will re raise with average pocket pairs. Nearly the only time I'm raising with average pocket pairs are when its been folded around to me in LP because at that point, there are no opponents with good hands who will pay me off if I hit my set so I'm content with just betting what is likely the best hand and winning the blinds. Even if there have been a ton of limpers and I'm in LP, then I'm just limping and hoping to hit my set.
My thoughts exactly.
 
Dude, I'm seriously inspired. May start a similar self-challenge with sports betting.

Thanks for the idea, and good luck :thumbup:

 
very good points. The only thing I'd argue with is that the blinds are not small compared to the stacks here. With the max buy in being 100 BBs, the blinds are nearly ever small enough compared to the stacks to get away from this situation imo.
He uses this as an example: If the BB is 100, and the stacks are 10000, then you bet 300 on the flop with your KK. He raises to 1000, you make it 3000. If he pushes, you can still fold with your 1.9:1 odds. His idea is that you want to plan your bets so that you're not getting the 4.5:1 odds on the river that he claims force you to call off your whole stack even though you know you're beat.
Against easier competition, I'll nearly always raise every chance I get preflop with aces. But you're right...much like he did, sometimes its better to call instead of making the 3rd or 4th raise preflop because you need to play a bit deceptively against stronger opponents.
And the correlary to this is that if I see someone who's just screaming QQ-AA - like a relatively tight player sticking in a big reraise over the top of a 3x raiser - and the blinds are small relative to stacks, I will sometimes call their bet preflop with very marginal hands because the implied odds are enormous. You will bust them every time.
BTW, how is that book? I've heard lots of mixed reviews.
I like it a lot. He plays an aggressive style, and I can see someone doing terribly if this were the only book they'd ever read, but I love how he goes into every common situation and explains what he would do and why. For example, he explains that there are four ways to flop a full house - AA + ###, A5 + ###, A5 + AA5, 55 + AA5. In the first case, you simply have to slowplay, and you might not get anything in the pot. In the second case, you're only behind AA, which is extremely unlikely, but you are also fairly likely to be up against another ace, so bet that flop and hope to get raised. And in the third and fourth cases, your hand is much more vulnerable than it looks because almost any other ace has three outs to beat you on the turn and will almost certainly have six on the river, so you should overbet the pot.

A lot of it will seem like common sense, but that's how the book is written - to give you good common sense rules on how to play a hand. I liked it, but I can understand why a good player would say it's nothing special.

 
Day 11

2/13/06

Extremely late start today(7:00). Needed a break for a while from cards. Playing in the $35K at Party now.

Probably should've made a play on the flop. Just calling such a big bet is very suspcious. Bad play on my part.

First break at Party $35K. I'm at 1400, average is 2000, 226 people left out of 463.

Well I'm out. Lost the HH, as I quickly left the table, but I had A-10, was needing to get something started, raised to 3x BB, SB called, flop was 8-8-4, he checked, I continuation bet, he put me all in. I should've just gone all in to begin with(big mistake) but if he had a mid pocket pair(which is what I put him on) then I had to call. He had QQ unfortunately. I lost.

Gonna play a $520 heads up match on Stars while I wait for the MTTs to start at 9:00.

Ouch. Was totally outplaying the guy up until this, and should've ended the tourney here. Now hes the chip leader.

I don't know if I've ever outplayed a guy by more and still lost in a heads up match. Very frusterating. I completely owned this guy the entire time, winning nearly any pot I tried to.

I'm totally playing on tilt right now btw....just not very patient at all. I've already bluffed off 300 chips at Party. Luckily I hit that flop at Stars.

Ok, I'm now in good shape in both tourneys. Time to stop messing around and get serious. I need to get deep in one of these tonight.

I really can't believe that I was doing so well in both tourneys and didn't make the first break in either. Need to collect my thoughts.

Ok, I've taken 45 minutes off. Ate a sandwich. Drank some vodka. I'm ready to play perfect poker. I'm very motivated to play well here. I want to prove that I can play well when things aren't going my way. Lets play.

This is really annoying. I can't get into a single game because the waitlist is so long and these idiots aren't smart enough to just start a new table up(I'll sit down at one, and it just won't fill up).

What am I doing here?? Ahhh!!! Play better than this!

Its really hard to believe how much worse I'm playing right now than a few days ago. Its probably not coming through in the HHs since I'm only posting big hands, but I'm just totally off my game right now. Gonna take another break.

Ok, time to play a $11 STT and just play ridiculous and talk trash to everyone.

LOL...first hand, a few limpers, I push with 3-6s, guy calls with A-10, I hit a 6 to win. Table is upset. I talk trash. This is making me happy.

LOL..I just won the $10 STT with an all in or fold strategy on every hand.

Gonna play a heads up match for $1K.

Just won $1K in the heads up match. I really played well in that. Maybe I should stick to those because I suck at every other form of poker right now. Here is the last hand- very pleased with my read.

Gonna play a 3rd heads up match now.

This is brutal. Once again, totally outplaying my opponent, and get him all in when I have him dominated with 2 or less cards to come, and he hits. Damnit.

So upset right now. Twice now that I've had this idiot dominated and hes sucked out. I deserve this win so much. I honestly couldn't imagine outplaying an opponent more.

Such bull####. Blinds got high. He won a few big hands when he was shortstacked and all in(he had less than 500 chips). This guy doesn't even belong at the same table as me.

I'm playing really well. I'm a little upset, but still confident in how I'm playing now. Gonna up it to 2 heads up matches at once.

Huge hand here.

Won both of them...gonna take a short break and then will be back for more.

Gonna play some more now. Might even go up to 4 at a time.

Have been playing a bunch. Think I'm up about $1K now...tough to type out HHs while I'm playing so many heads up matches, so I don't have those. This is definitely fun and a welcome change up from the grind of ring games.

I'm dead tired...its almost 6:00 in the morning now. Won around $2K in the heads up matches, which were very fun. Such a nice diversion...might continue playing those tomorrow. On the day, I'm down $343, which is pretty insignificant, and I'm happy with that considering how bad I played.

Day 11

2/13/06

Extremely late start today(7:00). Needed a break for a while from cards. Playing in the $35K at Party now.
Looks like day 10 was a tough day. Good idea stepping away for a little. I like that. This is the kind of thing that makes you so successful - a great attitude.Keep it up :thumbup:

As a suggestion, in the first post you color-coded the positive and negative days, but you made the + days red and the - days blue. Why not do the minus days in red and the plus days in green or black.

Just looks more positive that way :thumbup:
