| Bigger Buyin vs Smaller Buyin You see the same crap over and over in lower limit buyins players calling chips off way to lightly pre flop, Calling Stations and retarded plays....Now I understand the same things happen in bigger buyins also because most of these players also sattied into them, yet (I'm not accustomed to playing $50+ Buy ins), but 1 would think that the players would play a-little more better in them, and not make retarded calls pre flop? So I want to know does it make all the much of a difference the buy in? Cuz I know this stuff will also happen in those bigger buy ins but not as frequent or so I would think PokerStars Hand Converter from HandHistoryConverter.com Button (t3000) Hero (SB) (t3000) BB (t3000) UTG (t3000) UTG+1 (t3000) MP1 (t3000) MP2 (t3000) MP3 (t3000) CO (t3000) Hero's M: 100.00 Preflop: Hero is SB with 3 , 4![]() 2 folds, MP1 bets t60, MP2 calls t60, 1 fold, CO raises to t320, 4 folds, MP2 calls t260 Flop: (t730) 2 , 8 , 6 (2 players)MP2 checks, CO bets t360, MP2 raises to t2680 (All-In), CO calls t2320 (All-In) Turn: (t6090) 8 (2 players, 2 all-in)River: (t6090) 6 (2 players, 2 all-in)Total pot: t6090 Results: MP2 had 8 , 6 (full house, eights over sixes).CO had K , K (two pair, Kings and eights).Outcome: MP2 won t6090 Last edited by naruto_miu : 4th October 2011 at 9:23 PM. |

| First hand of that tourney. Absolutely nothing can be gleaned from that hand. IMHO, even if you have thousands of hands for each of those players, those stats will never give you a good read on how either is playing , now, today, in this particular tourney. However, I'd keep an eye on the 86 guy. |

| obviously there's idiots on any poker table & also as you move up in buyins you'll obviously run into fewer of them. How does he fold KK here? Prob doesn't. (doubt a set plays it like this). Just another goofy hand by a donk. TONS of donks who once they've put even a chip in the pot preflop, they're calling any & all raises, out of pos., doesn't matter... they're clueless. Pretty sure there's lots of info. to be gleaned from this hand. micro donkaments are tiltfests... just fire up dozens of them so it means nothing when stuff like this happens. (gonna check your CC game posts... to see who you've got marked in 'green', lol) You should come play in the CC HomeGame league - - lots of decent/good players in it, & lots of oppurtunity for thining beyond level1 stuff. |

| Actually i do not think that was that random. If i have some confort with the size of my stack and i know the villain is a straightforward nit who cannot let go his big pair, i woud probabely call 13 BBs to win over 150 BBs. I think his intention was to catch at least a draw of some kind but he hit 2 pairs. Of course you need some good reads on the villan to be positive he will put his stack on the line with AA or KK on a dry board. In my opinion he could be a fish but also he could be a big shark because in this case math tells me he can be both ways. IN rush poker calls like this are not a big deal. Why not in other types of poker? So i think crazy moves can be made by pros and they are made. If Doyle calls with 10 2 suited is a genius. Everyone else is a fish? |

| There are bad players at every level. I moved up again around Easter of this year and am now playing no tournaments under $100 buyin (other than satellites to bigger games). At higher buyins, you don`t any longer see the complete monkeys who think that Ax is good for an allin preflop when deep stacked, but you still see plenty of people chasing draws or calling a raise on every street when they are clearly beaten. Having money is no guarantee of an ability to play well. |

| I've debated a lot about this topic in the past. Imo, you should not drastically change your play for the tons of fish. Make preflop raises bigger. When debating over size of buy ins, don't think about how many fish are going to be a in a given tournament. In reality, the more fish the better. In the long run, the fish will give you all of their chips. Instead, you should be focusing on how many buy ins you have for a certain level. A good rule of thumb is to have 100 buy ins. So if you are playing $1 tournaments, you should have $100 in your account. This isn't always practical, but IMO you should have at least 50 buy ins for low levels, and once you reach higher buy ins you should have at least 100 buy ins. |
