    "c-bet thinking I could fold out worse pocket pairs on a lot of turns".

    Worse pocket pairs than 2's?

    Ambitious.

    Thanks Phil.

    Yeah, they took out Pocket 1's ages ago. I would LOVE to see a pair of Pocket @Duesenberg 's. Preferably in drag.

    Great to see you posting again, SR. Hands down my favourite writer and forum contributor, with Haysie a close second.

    Regarding BRM tactics, well, that's just like your opinion, man.

    Very best of luck with this, everything else and, stuff.

    This lack of BRM aggression will not stand. Wicked to have you dropping in and thanks (as ever) for the kind words.

    Great to see you back Steve.

    Pocket Duesenberg's is one of the finest starting hands in poker...


    DUDE, I'm in the middle of a 30-ish buy-in downswing and you post this - how on earth am I supposed to play when I'm now HIGHLY AROUSED? And what is my solver supposed to make of those cards? Tonight's going to be an absolute disaster.

    It's so difficult to tell - I'm going to plump for "probably"

    Unfortunately for me, your downswing was temporarily suspended.
    I'm glad you put the chips to good use.
    A massive boost to your BR.

    Good luck.
    This is always an enjoyable read.
    Let's hope it lasts.

  • SR23SR23 Member Posts: 1,228
    ^ always a sweat eh, @dragon1964 ? Was the above in the freeroll earlier? Was having a few daft laughs and that splashing around whilst watching (frankly incredible) @waller02 's stream

    Let's hope it lasts too, thanks for the good wishes and for dropping by.
  • dragon1964dragon1964 Member Posts: 3,051
    Yes, the freeroll.
    At least I didn't waste 2 hours trying to win £1. (or £4)😁

    The bankroll refuses to budge upwards. I have had one or two words with it, but nope, it refuses to budge. Somewhat interesting hand below. Against unknowns/fun players/entrepreneurs the min click pre can often mean ... well, it can often mean anything but AK/AQ weren't too far from my mind on the flop and so we did a bit of dancing around and got it in. I don't hate it, or love it. I don't hate or love anything much at the moment - even this half-hearted moan I'm practically ambivalent about.

    Leaving opponent's name in because I'm assuming the hidden subtext of the min-click was that he wants to advertise; I'm not leaving his SN in because it's a faff to scroll through the wall of code taking it out. Plus, you know, he totally binned me. wpwp.

    The merest slice of an update today because I'm as flat as a pancake and a bit cheesed off. Are you as flat as a pancake and a bit cheesed off? Do tell me.

    This hand cheered me up a notch. In the cut and thrust of multi-tabling I hadn't noticed how short shorty was but it turns out that I did indeed have some fold equity on the river. Not that I ever miss these. And not that I typically do this kind of thing (and if I do ever do this kind of thing I need to go a bit bigger, I think). I was just feeling a bit lairy and pancake-like.
