Guy was playing NLO8, and he'd make "single chip raises" so that it looks like a tiny raise, but its actually huge. And thus, fish would erroneously call, because it looks like just like a min-raise, except its in dollars rather than cents.

Example:


*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to NU Starnes [Ad As 6c Td]
DirtyCuban69: folds
smaash: folds
vualuck: calls $0.50
I'm A Lookin: calls $0.50
NU Starnes: raises $50 to $50.50
BabyTay: folds
actrosity: folds
vualuck: folds
I'm A Lookin: calls $50
*** FLOP *** [Ts 5s 7d]
I'm A Lookin: checks
NU Starnes: bets $4.50
I'm A Lookin: folds
NU Starnes collected $99.25 from pot
NU Starnes: doesn't show hand
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $102.25 | Rake $3


*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to NU Starnes [Qs 2c As Ad]
GizzyGurl: calls $0.25
flaVius: calls $0.25
NU Starnes: raises $25 to $25.25
flaVius: calls $25
*** FLOP *** [9c 7d Qc]
flaVius: checks
NU Starnes: bets $2.75
flaVius said, "wtf how did all my chips get in there"
GizzyGurl said, "lol"
flaVius said, "DAMMIT"
flaVius: raises $4.80 to $7.55 and is all-in
NU Starnes: calls $4.80
*** TURN *** [9c 7d Qc] [Ks]
*** RIVER *** [9c 7d Qc Ks] [Kd]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
flaVius: shows [2s Ah Td 8d] (HI: a pair of Kings)
NU Starnes: shows [Qs 2c As Ad] (HI: two pair, Aces and Kings)
NU Starnes collected $63.45 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $66.45 | Rake $3

I think that's the best one

I just read through it quickly, but I was laughing my ass off. Def worth a read when you can. But basically if he was playing a .10/.25 game, he would bet out $25 with any AAxx hand. He would get a caller thinking he min raised .25 and then bust them on the flop.

That last hand almost made me pee my pants.😀😀

FYI Irexes is one of the few CC players at tables that doesn't play nice. I totally respect his stance, and I appreciated him being honest with me when I asked while we occasionally sit at the 100nl tables together.

Irexes in a rebuy = NO RULES, GREAT SCOTCH.

what do you mean by "play nice" ?

it's always weird to be at a table with a fellow CC player, as we have spent so much time analysing hands together that we do know a lot about each other's styles and it means the game goes very much into "i know that he knows that i know that he knows..." levels.

That means if i get a CC member on my left, i'll stand up and look for another table. But not if he's on my right... 😀

I'm an equal opportunities player 🙂 I'll try and take anyone's money.

i lol'd
but seriously, they have no such thing as friends when ur competing and when there is money involved 😛
 
Are you guys aware that this was a $11 rebuy and not 100nl ? I know nothing from Rex's tournament except from what very little I saw railing some deep finishes, and even less about his play during rebuy period.

Plus his 5 BIG ASS stars made me wee my pants 😱

Meh, only means he plays a lot, doesn't mean he plays well.

When you'll move up in ring games, the first supernovas you'll meet will be at 50nl. Those are super bad. I mean break-even and unimaginative, and you can exploit the hell out of them. Just because they have 5 stars doesn't mean much, on the contrary.

Of course, if you look up Rex on OPR, then you can start wetting your pants. 😀

I figured that's what he was saying, I was just surprised he expected anything less.

Absolutely.

Ring Rex =/= Tourney Rex

I'm getting there with ring by virtue of lots of study but I'm no big winner (yet). I'm up a few thousand $ since I started, but not killing the tables by any means. In the last month alone I've made half a dozen sizeable changes to my game. Getting supernova just means I play a lot.

Regarding the stars, I switch them on for tournaments as they do seem to affect table image. I have been known to bluff occassionally so this is a good thing. If I'm just playing ring I switch them off. Don't want the fishies to worry.

I know, and I've played with a number of sn's before. Both at 25nl and at $20 DoNs. The dudes at 25nl were probably just blowing off some steam, but the $20 DoN regs are definitely grinders.

Anyways, they all pale in comparison to some character named Zachvac. The biggest loser at 25nl in my db. Besides myself of course.

indeed. just checked my db and I have that dude losing at -181 BB/100 over 116 hands at 25nl. Super aggro fish playing 37/24 with 15% 3bets.

Feeling really good lately though. Last two days sucked in terms of results but I literally finished each session with a smile on my face and am loving how much self control I have now compared to a month ago. Feeling pretty ****in good 🙂
