Had one of the easiest sessions of my life yesterday, and all for one very simple reason, people loved showing me their cards. I meant to blog about this when playing at the Aria, but goddamn does it pay off to be on everyone's good side at the table. I'm no Daniel Negreanu, but I do like to talk at the table a lot in a casual friendly manner, and be overall supportive of players' actions. I quickly came to realize that when people like you, they want to do you favors. From Vegas to the homegames, you can get a lot of free info when people are eager to show you they werent bluffing you, because nobody wants to take their friends' money right?
I was able to get out of two big hands last night when villains showed me their cards IN THE HAND lol. I folded AQ on a QT8ss flop after villain swore up and down he had J9, and I said "if you show me that hand I'll fold" and so he turns it over, wtf lol. I gave him a hearty pat on the back and let it go. And another spot with another villain when I had something like KT on a 89Jss flop and he showed me QTo. I didnt even know these guys' names.
It's amazing how nice people can be when you're friendly with them. Just thought I'd share, always try to be jovial at the tables, you can end up saving a lot of money.

| I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |

Do they get mad at you if you win a big pot off them? |

This is one of the ways you can get a super sick winrate live. I always try to be super friendly and build camaraderie at the tables so I can get in these situations. If you can build rapport with someone at the table they will almost never bluff you and you can get them to tell you when you are beat. It's one of the great things about playing live! :D |
