Stick's Poker Blog: Stick's Video: 3-Tabling $25NL Full Ring 09/09/07

Downloading right now. Looking forward to it. Since you say it's your latest vid, do you have links to other vids as well? (If so, could you post some links please?) I'll post feedback if I've got something meaningful to say after seeing the video.

Well, I have posted some in the past. But I think the links expire in 30 days on Megaupload, so my others are gone from there. I'm actually looking for a place to host videos larger than 100 MB for free or cheap without expiration. I'll see what I can do.

downloading now stick.

before I respond do you want honest comments in this stick?

ok 1st raising to $1.75 after 3 limpers in a full ring game is bad, that isnt even pot size you got lucky that the one guy re-raised you.

3 betting light has nothing to do with your bet amounts it has to do with the cards you hold, means to 3 bet someone with a medium strength hand like KQ or KJ.

why are you checking that flop? if he shoves are you folding?


2nd hand

there is nothing wrong with betting out with 2nd pair on a dry board like J high.

A little feedback:

In the QQ hand it would have been better to check behind imo. See this thread: The WA/WB concept

I have not got to that point yet but yes that thread is terrific.

Matter of semantics, but stormy is correct. This is a concept that short-stackers will try to use to their advantage. If you have a short stack, people will "call you down light" meaning they will call with less strong hands because the risk to their own stack is less. If done correctly, you'll get your money in a lot of times at 60/40 or better. Someone ( looks at Storm..., should post a strategy article about short stack play)..

On the first hand, if you were willing to put another $14 or whatever in the pot when he bet (then you raised him all in), why didn't you just put him all in on the flop?


I watched the whole video, no offense to some of the previous videos, but this one has several difficult decisions that make for good discussions.

Great point. I think I was going off his loose VPIP (41) and his semi-tight Postflop AF (1.5) thinking he'd fold, which I now know wasn't quite right to do.

funny you mention this was planning on writing something like this up, give me a couple of days. Im off next 3 days so I will get to work on it.

Downloading it now and I'll comment when I see it.

QQ hand, you comment that he called 2.5x the origional raise. You do realize that EP raised to $1, MP called $1 and you made it $2.50 right? he is not calling 2.5 there he only has to call $1.50 into a $4.50 pot.

why are we limping 99 UTG?


why are we and by "we: I mean you checking dry flops? K high follow that up with a C-bet, expecially against good players.


please stick get the bet pot script for pokerstars so we can stop pricing people in to call.
