Metro Donkathon
Help me out here.... should I not even bother playing LIVE ring?
I just played 25P/50P cash games in Metro and bought in for P5,000.
The table was full of full fledged MANIACS and I do mean MANIACS . A raise of 15 BB would get 2-3 callers. I didn't like the table but I felt that flopping the nuts would do the trick here.
So I limp in with 8-9o in a very rare unraised pot. Flop comes down 5-6-7 and I check. MP bets P500 and gets 3 callers. I raise all-in and surprise surprise every single caller CALLS me. 2 Flush draws and one holding a 4 for crying out loud. No one improves and I net a P15,000 pot. Not bad this is going to be easy....
Or so I thought. A few hands later I get dealt AK. I raise 8 BB and get 2 callers. Flop comes A-Q-8 rainbow and I bet the pot. I get one caller and turn comes 3 so I bet 3/4 pot and still a call. River is a 6 and I put the guy all-in. He instacalls and shows Q-6. Ok ok fluke but that hits my stack for 5K.
I also saw one hand with one raise to P300 and a limp reraise to P1,200 from UTG (obvious play right). Guy calls and flop comes A-10-4 with 2 spades. UTG doesnt slow down (he holds AA) and bets the pot of P2,000 (maybe scared of the draw but I'd slow down here and have LAG player hang himself). The initial caller throws his cards face up 8c-5c and says "no draw". What in heaven's name is going on??? How can I even put anyone on anything with everyone calling 3X reraises!?!
Last major hand I get dealt JJ. I limp UTG for P50 and MP raises P500 and 2 more callers. I decide I want to isolate... I raise all-in ON TOP for P10,000...
EVERYONE CALLS the freaking all-in and the hands show up AK, Q-J and A9s. The flop comes K-K-3 and the turn and river completes the flush for the A9s guy. I understand the call of the AK guy but everyone else????
My point.... how the hell can I even play poker when almost everything degenerates into a bingo game??? Playing deep stack BINGO like this has too much variance written all over it.

Flop is In certain kinds of Poker, including Texas Hold `Em Poker, the first three cards which are dealt all at once, face up.
Lol
poker is such a great game because you have to be albe to look around and think about all the possibilitis that you have and the best way to win the pot.
;)
Yup that used to happen to me but then i learned to use it to an advatage now i rarely go all in with jj qq AK even KK. Don't play it like a tournament and dont push all in preflop unless u got AA lol. Issolating going all in??? im confused i usually re raise alot to hopefully issolate but issolating is so u can only have one or 2 oppentents on the flop and outplay them (even maniaks are outplayable ) hard to explain in such a small segments but overall i LOVE those games i triple with what i bought in in about an hour which is great :)
