Hi all.
I`m playing a lot of O8, mainly MTT, but I was tempted to play limit ring games by Stars recently.
I seem to have a problem with laying down a hand when playing limit ring games, but I do well playing MTT - bizzare!!!
I actualy find myself playing more loose in ring games than MTT. I think it is becuase when playing MTT`s I find I have a definate `goal` i.e. to win the tourny.
Playing ring games I think I am effected by how long to play.
When playing ring games what is your aim with your hand?
Is it to build it to the nuts and that is about it? I don`t want to make it sound that simple, and I know about drawing odds, so I take that into account.
Also, don`t bother to bluff???
I had a guy today acting before me. I knew he was just hanging on to the pot, but I had very little. I had bet every street and he had called. The community cards were something like 10dJd2hQd7c - he called me all the way with pair of 7`s (having said that, I had a pair of 2`s - I was repping the flush or straight.)
This happened on a few occassions with different guys. Any ideas please???
I think, as I said earlier, I have a definate goal in a MTT - u lose your chips and u r out.
Ring games, u lose your chips and u reload.
The best answer would be keep away from ring games, but I think if I got some advice I would do well.
Thoughts please???
