Why You Play Suited Connectors in Position

Here’s a hand from tonight that demonstrates the value of playing suited connectors in position against a small raise:

I limped with the 9/10 of diamonds, small blind popped it but barely 3x the BB, and being in position against him made it easily worth it.
A quick double up when I drop a big hand and […]

Last 5 Minutes

Here are two hands I played in the last five minutes.
Hand 1, big bets preflop, dude didn’t have much left, got it all in even though I somehow felt sure he had flopped the jacks, I couldn’t lay it down for what he had, fun, thanks Full Tilt.

Hand 2, almost the very next hand, raised […]

I Sucked Out

And not two minutes after that last post, I finally sucked out.
I thought the other day, “God, it’s been so long since I sucked out. I am almost always ahead when it goes in, and when I’m not it’s because somebody woke up with AA, and I never ever suck out to equalize all the […]

Full Tilt Poker Fun

Never takes long at Full Tilt. Your’re pretty much guaranteed every 15 minutes to see a hand that makes you go Ewww and think ‘Yeah these hands are ridiculous.’
And as always, the hand that is behind when the money gets in, gets there. Like clockwork.
I’m still not sure Full Tilt is rigged, per say, but […]

Straight Flush Draw vs Aces Up

Ah, yes, returning to Full Tilt cash game, loving the pair of aces with straight flush draw flopped against aces up and hitting the flush on the river.
Fortunately it wasn’t me this time, but really, it’s been too long.
God bless you Full Tilt.
Surely.

Creation Killer Congrats

Congrats to online tournament player Andrew ‘CreationKiller’ Durden, who a month or so ago I mentioned as beginning a sit-n-go and MTT tournament strategy online to begin with $60 and see how high he can take it.
He crossed the $1000 mark a couple days ago and is now at $1325, all from playing low entry […]

Chris Ferguson on Running Bad

A remotely interesting, if not just apt, article by Chris Ferguson is up on the Full Tilt articles page. It’s about running bad, and how to deal, and etc.
Here’s an excerpt:
If you look at your game and believe that you’re actually playing well but are just getting unlucky, then maybe you are. Aces get cracked […]

Another Instance of Full Tilt Fireworks

As if in direct corroboration of my last post about how no card in online poker is a blank, and every hand seems to pit several players with huge hands against one another, check out this hand that went down just minutes after I’d pressed ‘publish.’

So, here we have one player flopping a set, […]

No Such Thing As Blank

Is there ever a card that comes down in an online game that’s actually a blank? It seems like when they’re not busy dealing out the bad beats, they’re at least scaring the crap out of you by putting the scare cards down (and probably having made a hand for the non-donkeys that didn’t get […]
