Wouldn't call him my poker hero but I think Bertrand (ElkY) Grospellier is a great player. He seems to be a strategy guru and seems to often know where he is in a hand.
I also have a good deal of respect for Negreanu, Mercier and Victor Blom (just because he's just won back-to-back SCOOPs which is crazy IMO)
Fancy seeing a barrelling that goes wrong, check out this hand in the mini-bh #517737367Once he limp's in my auto setting is to raise. Once I get a donk lead I've got him on second pair, so I reraise (with a gutshot) but I'm wary when he calls. Once he leads the turn for 200 I'm certain he has a middle pair so I shove as I've now got an UDSD and i get called by bottom pair. Do you think I should've just called the weak turn lead to try to hit my straight?regards,Carl (Mohican)
You where just talking about confidence, and as a player who plays very scared when confidence is low and seriously aggrssive when confidence is high, what advice would Jerome and Sarah offer to to someone whos like that?
Edit: What i mean by this is when confidence is low even when getting it in with the nuts before the river my eyes are closed alot of the time hitting reload almost 100% sure their going to hit their draws/FH/Quads etc. When confidence is too high i just seem to get it in far too light.
ref 1k pot,let that be a lesson to the viewers,i was multi tabling AND watching the fa cup final and i snaped called without noticing it was my bigest table and a lot of money if you cant concentrat on every table dont play so many

If one of my hands features in TOTP I'd appreciate some honest feedback of how badly I played AAA.
Good luck with the rest of the show.
