Experimenting with loose cannon maniac mode..

[twizzybop]

Definatly not me .... but this is what one shouldn't do..Be crazy and stupid.. The last one I got beat by another crazy and stupid. Not to mention the call my ace,q... but realize one thing... probably after the few hands... I would get more action if i cut it down a few notches and went into my normal style game.

[Grumbledook]

crazy man, were those cash games?

I've been trying out the loose aggressive style on the 6max tables.

Been going ok so far, just playing the $50 and $100 buy ins.

Whats your opinion on how it went?

 

[Dorkus Malorkus]

Don't try and bluff calling stations like Leafsking.

 

[twizzybop]

I think it went very well.. I visited my brother on thanksgiving who gave me the suggestion. He said try 1 game as a maniac, then one as a passive player, another as a calling station, and so forth. To get the feel for diffrent types of players and it also mixes it up especially those you see time and time again.

Betting and calling with anything..Hard to explain the full feeling until you at least try it once yourself. Thats why I did it on a lower limit cause I knew I couldn't fully play that style and come close to winning.

 

[duesXmachina]

wow

Yeah it looked you you got some tilt in your system calling with those low connectors. But hey, i see people calling and winning with those types of hands against my tier I cards and it just takes a little luck. After all the cards decide who wins at the showdown. We are just the players making moves at a table...
