unsure how i made this fold, i had no real read on my opponent, but i had a really strong gut feeling i was behind, i actually named 9 10 ? in the chatbox before i folded, and my opponent a completely genuine player showed.

I just wanted to share this to show im not all that bad. :)

    Just a thought Don, why are you sudenly playing 30NL when only a few days ago you were moving up to 8NL, and if you're gonna play at this level doing so with <50 BB's isn't the best idea.

    i wanted to see if i could compete at this level. Sat down with £15 and just stood with £41 so cant have done too badly, although the hands i got paid for played themselves.

    got a feeling u passed here due to playing with scared money, esp with no reads.

    and its prob not a gd idea to base whether u can beat 30nl off one one table sesh

    If you raise you can isolate one player and if you then hit a flop like this there's more money in the pot so you can bet more, thus winning more. Also sick outdraw mate but s*** happens. ;)

    i know what you are saying mate but in early position is it wise to raise with this hand??

    or would you just fold these kind of hands????

    i think these are the spots where im getting into trouble!!!!

    it wasnt scared money i was more than happy to get it in, when i was confident i was ahead. But because of the level of player i was against, basing that the player is a NL50 player i knoew the re-raise was enough to tell me i was behind. I was happy to lose the money.

    Also i fully agree with the point in bold.

    Tight?? it was cliokid!!!!

    I was watching the table, cliokid had shown the nuts, (89 on 67T board) and AA AIPF....the only 2 times he'd shown cards.

    Even so, I dunno how Donald got away from this.......

    When the time bar was running down, I knew Dons hand, and I really did think it was a scared money fold.

    But he had it spot on....

    lol u never fold this at nl4 tho don?

    And these £3 stacks at nl30....ughhhhhhhhhhhhh they haunt my dreams.
