I just have to brag here..i finally played a limit hand well

Postby kennyg » Sun Feb 20, 2005 5:57 am

3/6 limit Prima poker

I have [Ac][Qs] in late MP. 2 limpers to me. I raise. Eveyone folds back to the two limpers. First limpers calls. second limper reraises!!! hmmmm...i look at my notes on this guy:

"randomly will reraise a raise in any position perflop. Will continue to bet or call on every street. a crap player"

ok..so I decide to cap here. I think my hand is best and I wanna get the first limper out. First limper calls to my dismay as does the moron.


FLOP $40
[Ah][4d][7c]

Nice flop. limper checks, moron bets. I raise. first limper folds. moron calls. it's heads up.

Anyway..to make a long story short. no threanting cards ensued...and i bet the turn and river. He called both bets and mucked...I won a very nice pot for my effort.

thank goodness i wrote notes on this guy!!! what do you real limit players think?

Nice hand. With your read on the moron I would have very likely just called his flop bet with that board as I don't think you have much to worry about with the first limper. That way you very likely get his call which is the same as the call from the moron on your raise and even if he folds you will get a double bet from the moron on the turn instead of only a single Big bet. So I think you lost one Big Bet here but not too bad for a NL player :lol:

1 big bet!!!!! owned . haha i will never play a perfect hand of limit it seems :)

thanks for the advice though..I actually did consider this play...but thought the raise on the flop was safer...would hate to get outdrawn by the first limper calling with a second pair or something.
