Message: [QUOTE="Liveone1, post: 780145, member: 38392"] I hope you don't need a computer to tell you to fold that. But, depends on your play style. I play tight. All the guy needs is one K in his hand, and you lose with your pocket 10's unless you try to draw a 10 (wouldn't be very smart). Why would you continue to bet (well, you can make tiny calls) if you don't even have top pair? You said he plays mid to top cards right? Don't see the need for a program. With as many unknowns as you just described, and playing against someone like that, fold, find another table. Yup, I feel it. Plus, the flop didn't do jack for you and your pocket 10's. If you wanted If you wanted to bet that, I'd say your style is too aggressive/risky (for my taste anyway). Wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too many unknowns. Unless your style is aggressive OR (not "and" because there is a difference between aggression and well timed aggression) risky (fishy), if you can't feel that hand should be folded, then poker might not be for you. Even if you do have an aggressive style...this type of situation puts you at risk. So, what the hell would you even need to think about? Just because you nailed a pocket pair doesnt mean JACK until you see that flop. It is then you should know, based on your playing style, your hand, the flop and your borderline maniac opponents style (that you are able to plug into the program) what action to take. For me, its fold, BUT what do I know, I only play freerolls:D Also, just because you get the numbers from the program (11%, 5%, 1% chance, etc that they will have whatever)...its POKER. The numbers actually mean NOTHING. Usually, when you slow play someone or end up in a big pot, its because you have cards that a program would say are next to impossible (5%, 2% chance)...same for your opponents. If you bet/play according to this bull, then you'll probably be sorry. You need to pay attention to the players, not these damn programs. They are useless and aiding in crippling your poker game. How about this, play/watch free/cash money games 5 hours a day for 5 days. While your playing, play tight. For every flop you see (even the ones you folded pf) think of all the possibilities for that flop. Continue with the turn/river. Then, when you realize your doing it subconsciously, start doing that AND pay attention to the way players at your table bet their hands. Though some are harder to figure out than others, you'll find their game. You'll become your own program, and won't lead yourself wrong based on percentages...You'll feel it. My 10 cents. [/QUOTE]
