'The Road So Far' - Shaunak
Well, i started playing yesterday, and almost automatically i started losing pots. Most of the big pots were where i was a huge favourite till the turn and was being rivered. Just didnt understand why players kept calling me with garbage hands and i started tilting. Then, i went to the team fundoo blog and read some posts. I learnt that at this level it is better to play a LAG style then TAG which is my normal style of play.
Even though in real life due to the stakes i play it is almost impossible for me to loosen up and try LAG, im not very accustomed to it. So, thnx to the staking i was finally able to try out LAG. I started with 9euros and went up to 14euro in less than an hour. Mostly i was just raising 3-4BB from middle or late position in an unraised pot and mostly it was working for me. Especially, when luck turned around i was able to get alot of value out of my hands.
One hand that i would like to remember is against a player that i had just doubled up against. The player had lost a couple of pots against me and i it looked like he was steaming. On this particular hand, i raised 3BB from middle position with J9o and got re raised by him double. This got me in a situation where i could play for his stack. The flop came 9JJ. Wow!! this is it. But, knowing his style, i knew he was also playing a big hand and didnt want to get outdrawn. But i played small, i raised like 50% of the pot which he called.
This made me think he does not have a super premium or he would have raised. So... on the turn it came 8.. some straights got there but he raised small like 4BB being the first to act. I thought it would be a good time to test his will, so i raised him 4 times his bet. He called. The rived came A. i went for it. I pushed and he called. was happy to see his AKo. LAG it is, will keep u guys posted.
