There's a LOT of bull out there! Do'nt be too quick to fold

Ok, this is very important. Many of you, seem to give TOO much credit to your opponents. Years ago, this was a pretty good policy. But, the advent of televised poker, has caused there to be WAY more bullshift bluffs, than ever before. Also, online play is condusive towards bluffing, I.E. a big reason people don't in person, is that's it's perceived as "dirty pool" And, people don't want to be anti-social.

(Well, I mean people other than ATE)

But, behind the anominity of a screen name, people are more free to do "naughty" things.

There are even more reasons for this bluffing fest, but It's not necessary to get into them.


Just know this: when there is a nice amount of money in the pot (8-10 times cost of call, or more) A call should be just about automatic.

The other day, in 30-60 stud hi low, ATE started with two Queens. (not normally a good hand, but this was heads up)

The opponent shows a jack, and reraises me. I three bet, he calls. On forth, I catch a jack (good, as it reduces his improving chances) I bet he, calls Fifth street brings no help, but it looks as though the queens are still good. On sixth he catches a heart, and now shows three of the buggers. I bet, he RAISES. Since I had originally put him on jacks, and NOT a three flush, I figure at best he has jacks and a four flush. Notice, ATE fans, how I'm only a TINY favorite as this point. But, Favorite is favorite, so I POP EM AGAIN. River is check, check and this nice 800+ SKILLET is MINE!

So, the guy tried to shoot his way out, but I caught him. This is only ONE example.

The lesson is: once you've put in a ton of money, you should usually be prepared to pay a person off. The exception is if you've had a lot of experience with the player, and they are known to always have what they represent.

Anyway, I'mmmmm baaaaackkk!

Welcome back Adam.
You bring up a very good point, as I am always looking for monsters under my bed, MUB, and this has been limiting my earnings in the small stakes.

I do understand that small stakes is more BINGO than POKER, but sometimes even I can tell when someone is bluffing.

Keep those posts coming!
Last night I stayed up late playing poker with Tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died.
