10/20/40 O-Mah-Gawd Live Pokers lulz

Game is a 3 blind 10/20/40 game. Villan in the hand is incompetent in all the wrong ways, yet convinces himself that he's the greatest thing that has ever happened to the poker community. Very hard to fully describe our history since he's basically a nit who spazzes the fuck out sometimes, and I've previously caught him in some lol pots where his line has made no sense and he has been running one of his epic spazz bluffs. With that said, I think he's actually a winner in these games. Lol live poker :-p

Big fish ($4,000) limps in early positions, Villan ($7500) limps behind in middle positions. I am in CO with and raise to $220 because fuck them. Big fish folds and Villan makes a very fast call. Putting his range here as very wide given that he's aware that I isolate this spot very wide.


Flop comes

Villan checks, and I check behind

Turn comes

Villan checks, I bet $450, Villan now check raises to $900. O_O... I call.

River comes

Villan tanks for a full minute then checks. I bet $1200. Villan thinks for a full 5 minutes in the most zZz Hollywood time bank ever, then check-raises to $3,200.

Normally I find this a very quick and fast fold. But... this motherfucker... wtf

i read most of your hands you post in this section cuz the way you describe them, its like watching rounders with more levels. i liek.

Is river a standard value bet?

like i guess there is some merit to checking behind the river.... that feels so dirty thou.

Does he usually think for so long with his spazz bluffs?

Fking call so what

Dude, his line makes absol-fucking-lutely 0 sense.

call because fuck him

I cant picture someone thinking for 5 minutes then raising
what a douche

This guy is first and foremost a nit. A little loose preflop, passive but randomly spazzy post flop. Doesn't like to get fucked with.

Again, very hard to fully describe what goes on in this idiots mind.

vs such a player what do u guys think about the $1200 river bet. More I think about it, more I hate it, but I dunno if thats just me not being able to looks away from the result of what happened.

This hand makes me feel like I got randomly owned

Whoops. Alcohol and LP <> wisdom. Self nuke.

study him

imagine you are him inside his body

feel as you think he feels

then call

depending on what he had use that feeling to gain soul reads on him for hte rest of ur life

man i bluff this spot so often in his place, well except I'd never min raise turn though so I don't know lol

but in urs I'd check back against someone who would tend to bluff raise air rivers in appropriate spots

u checkback vs ppl who bluff raise

wat

Bleh, if he bluff raise isint bet/call ? Am I missing something ?

my 1st instinct is to call, i mean hes thinking way too long, i don't think if he had a monster he would be able to wait that much to get his money, hes prob just thinking about what you can have and getting his balls together for a bluff, plus his raise doesn't make a lot of sense for a valueraise in my eyes, i would think he makes it a bit bigger with his monsters, because you are only calling with good hands anyway

btw i really like your live poker posts, i play in a very similar game keep em coming!

that river bet is the worrrrrrrrrrrrssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssst and im drunk so i cant even begin to imagine how bad it is when ur sober

yea... these same exact thoughts use to go through my head... and 100 failed soul reads later I figured out I was just levelling myself.

Initially, given his line, I felt that nothing beats me on river here :-P / on rare occation I value cut myself vs slightly better two pairs with the $1200 value bet on the river. My only concern is how many hands are worse that he will call $1200 on river with, and I think there isnt much in that range that plays like that on turn. Prolly bad river bet. I still feel pretty fucking dirty to have to check behind here thou zZz

If I thought he was spazzy enough to bluff raise my river bets a high % of the time... i love my river bet O_O

i would probably make up my mind as he is tanking his 5 minutes and snapcall his raise. that way no one will ever fuck with u again

Yeah but are you really thinking about him raising in those 5 minutes.

You're just sitting there using mind-powers chanting 'CALL FISH CALL' over and over and then he suddenly raises and mind goes kaboom.

fml i remember writing that now

I usually consider a tank/raise as the nuts but not sure how he can have them there... flip a coin imo.

Results plox.

I folded. He mucked. Sigh

nit

die

what kinda hands does he limp pf you think? can he limp a QT and play it like this? a K2 of spade? would he play 77 like this? A7?

w/ out any reads it feels like a retard nit 7x spade. or possibly a retard nit staring down at the Kx/Jxss all stressed out about how he's gonna get the most.

you think he "hollywood" tank 5 min then bluff w/ a 45hh?

i mean if you think he can show up w/ a 65hh or a JTo or something and will be playing w/ him a lot sure call. if the spidey senses are tingling that he's bluffing and you are playing well call. but otherwise i like the fold.

anyways, far far far more important is the fact you stuck 30bbs in there on the river very likely stone dead.

i think someone who takes 5min and raises is going to have a non-nut but strong hand here that he's trying to muster the strength to get more value out of, but you dont beat any of those hands so a good fold i think

you are master of the very very obvious

cosmo, are you white or asian??

Wasian.

cosmo is awesome

i agree. I met cosmo in real life and his smile is legendary. But I am wondering whether the average person who doesn't know him thinks he looks more asian or more white.

whiteness --------------asianness
0 10

Vote!

hes half asian like me (pretty sure). I lean towards he looks more asian than white.

My smile is as legendary as RaSZi's frown

I was thinking along the same lines. I wouldn't expect a bluff here really, just "thin" value and sometimes the nuts. Tanking here for 5 minutes is still ridiculous though.

Did you atleast tank 4 minutes before folding?
Next time call so we could go like "yeah, told you so" Why did you just call the minraise on turn btw? :
Isn't it like an easy raise on turn or am i too european-minded.
