omg !!

I don't get this? 540bb AQo? Even if he sucked really hard (which clearly he does) you're only 60/40 against the top 50% of hands? Fine if you know he has KQo

That EV difference a lot of that hand - 75:25ish - that's -$400EV???

AQ dominates a good amount of his range

Like KQ, :o

Yes but 540bb fml....bigger balls than me.

+ He lost A 2BI pot the hand before, he was more likely be pushing with crap -.-

thats a really high variance call where u might have a slight advantage

not worth imo

guy does that with KQ then he is bad enough to make mistakes in spots where u will have a clearer edge...

I guess make the call if you can afford the rage.

What does that even mean, I am ahead of his range, the call is easily +ev

Why would I feel rage?
I feel like preparing myself on how to exploit him well and not tilt


Fun session indeed, its been a long time since limping was the best play.

well duh, you a re being results oriented. U gut really lucky, then eaqually unlucky.

AQ is a total spew at that spot.

being +ev doesn't make it the right play

Ummm... If calling has higher expected value than folding then it kinda does no?

they're saying you can "wait for a better spot"
but i disagree because if u dont try and stack him asaply the other regs will get his money.
however i'd go on such tilt if i lost that hand words cannot describe

He was showing so many hands that that would be the case.

The whole concept of waiting for a better spot is complete bullshit.

If the 44% of the time I lose would make me tilt so much that it would erase the EV then it makes sense, but thats just not the case.

One thing has helped me a lot in this matter:
When I push or click all in, the hand is not over for me.

I actually plan my reaction to different cards, with the most important being if I lose I take a few deep breaths, I sit down and I am happy that he didn't leave the table.
The fact that he sucked out on me in several 70% situations before also helped, I almost got used to it (but it didn't change my game) :o



EDIT: And I also have 100+ Buy Ins, that makes it a ;lil'' easier.
