David makes his points extremely clear. I really don't understand how so some micro stake players can talk so definitively with all their statements, especially when talking to players who play 10-20 (40?) times their buy in.
1) He wouldn't be calling the flop with 77, but t's not unreasonable for him to have a T or a hand like AJ/QQ/JJ. David actually tried to do some math to see how often we need to get him to fold, and it's close.
2) How can he have a busted draw on the river? It'd be a trivial easy shove with JQ on the flop and why would he call with a draw on the turn? No draw even came on the turn, not even a flush draw for a hand that floated. And to boot, you say we need to three barrel sometimes to get him to fold his draws, but our hand beats any draw! So basically you advise three barreling sometimes only to blast him off the hands we already beat and stack off to the rest. Three barreling here is horrible.
3) We have the best possible hand to double barrel with, so we should be double barreling this board never then. This probably isn't a big issue to you as you're probably not at the stage where you try to balance your value bets with bluffs or anything, but from a mathematical perspective this is horrible.
I know it seems like I'm coming down hard on you Johnny, but it's just annoying when people throw the word "spew" around when we're looking at differently lines and they don't really have any idea what they're talking about. It really hurts the discussion.Statistics: Posted by DoctorHandles — Sat May 24, 2008 3:29 am
