More 3-bet Pots

Date: Sat, Oct 27, 2007 Internet

I played a bit more HU today. About 800 hands and +600. Most of it was from one player who the opponent in all these hands. I think I made some good improvements from the last match I posted. First time he has reraised in match. The PF call is a bit loose, and is [...]

Adjusting To Extreme 3-Betting

Date: Wed, Oct 24, 2007 Internet

I didn’t play much yesterday, but I did review a session I played against a very aggressive and loose player the other day. After about 5 hands he noticed that I was opening the button every hand, and started 3-betting me very loosely. There were stretches where he would 3-bet me 5 out of 6 [...]

Day 1

Date: Mon, Oct 22, 2007 Internet

So I woke up today excited to play some HU poker. I’ve started at 1/2, and will move up when I’m feeling good/running good or there is a fish. The good thing about HU is that there is not a big skill difference in the fish between about 1/2 and 5/10, so this will indeed [...]

HU Quest

Date: Sun, Oct 21, 2007 Internet

I’ve been really terrible about updating this, but I’m going to do a fun quest for the next month or so. The plan is to play 50k hands of HU NLHE in the next month and post my progress here. I have played HU from time to time when games were good or I was [...]

I hate AK

Date: Wed, Sep 19, 2007 Internet

Haven’t written about theory in a while, so here goes. I was discussing this common spot with a student, and here are some of my general thoughts. You raise AKo from the cutoff seat, and the BB reraises you. Assume 100bb stacks. Say your raise is 3bb, and he makes it 11bb total. (Scenerio 1) His [...]

Some new books

Date: Tue, Aug 7, 2007 Internet

I haven’t read much poker books in the last year. I’ve always believed that books are only good for teaching the very basics. The rest comes from playing a lot, and thinking about the game in your own way. I was visiting the US this weekend and happened to visit a Borders bookstore (US [...]

WSOP Main Event Report

Date: Tue, Jul 24, 2007 Internet

I leave the house around 11:30am with Rob (bobbofitos on 2p2). We are both a little nervous, and pass the time by talking about non-poker stuff. We arrive at the Rio just as they begin letting the players in. The convention center during the WSOP is really a sight to see. The room is massive, [...]

Vegas - Venetian 2/5

Date: Sun, Jul 8, 2007 Internet

After arriving on Friday, I finally got to play some live poker on Saturday afternoon. I headed down with a friend to the Venetian. Neither of us where carrying a big roll, so we settle for the 2/5 $1000 max buyin game. First hand in the BB, I get TT and raise 2 limpers. 1 [...]
