Ok, I'm really more of a sng/MTT player, but I thought I'd try the lowest limit cash tables at PartyPoker. Chilianu was quite aggressive and loose at this table, and I guessed he bluffed a lot with big bets. Just before the river card was shown, I had a sudden thought that he could be holding a Jack Ten, but was lucky he didnt! I just wanna know if I played this right, or should have been more agressive straight away, or something different?

lets see.... 5 dollar max buy-in, I think I would have made it .60c to go preflop, then bet pot on the flop. I see he only called you on the flop so u got a free shot and hit your king, he was dead in the water. Once that King hit it really didnt matter how u played it, as long as you got your chips into the middle, so good job.

Nice win.:) You more than doubled what you started with. It's a good thing that King came up or you would be in BIG trouble.

I don't get what's difficult to read about most Hand Histories anyway. It's very clear and informative to me.

I see two major advantages to converted hands:

1. Pot sizes.
2. They don't (unless you explicitly check the box) include the results.

Some argue that it's also slightly uncourteous to include player names in the hand analysis forum, but I don't subscribe to that belief myself.

Anyway, I also find the converted hands easier to read. That, however, is of course a matter of opinion. It's not that I "can't" read the history, it's that I find it more difficult to follow than a converted hand. Besides, I'm lazy.

Fish, what information do you feel you get from the HH that you don't from a converted hand?
