I have been reading up on 2+2 a little bit lately, mostly midstakes, and I just hate all the shit they talk about, all this theoretical stuff that make me think like "maybe if you got a little more fundamentally better you should worry about that, but you aren't so quit talking about making some kind of crazy fold and learn how to play simple poker better",

exhibit 1 is this thread:

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/sho...;page=0&fpart=1&vc=1&nt=2


"When to fold a set for how many bb's?"

Then Aislephive, who seems to be a long time and esteemed poster at that site, says "I don't "love" getting it in, since we're behind a decent amount. I'd get it in because I think it's +EV though."

So you're behind a decent amount with a set(??? WTF???) and its EV+ to get it in if you are behind a decent amount? OK..... that makes PERFECT SENSE.

The players on LP just seem so much less douchey and open to new ideas and have helped me get a lot better, 2+2 just pisses me off half the time, i'm sure their high stakes is probably really good and stuff but they just have so much BS.

End rant i guess just thought like posting this for fun

doesn't make sense, if you're behind with a set in this hand then you don't have "pots odds" because anything you're behind you have 1 out to win the hand.....

and like come on, "fold a set lolz" threads for midstakes players are just annoying

true, there is no such a thing as pot odds u have bottom set, if youa re not good on the flop u are pretty much drawing dead.

However that is a chair spin snap call

lol, 100% agree with thoughts about 2p2. i just read BBV cuz it's funny sometimes, the rest of the forums are pretty worthless.

that hand that you linked to is such a snap call, i don't even start thinking about it for less than 150 bb and almost always put it in for anything less than 2BI. after that point it becomes player dependent, but yeah, fuck those nits.

quit tryin to be a repo man - definitely -EV and negative expectancy - AvidGambler

I read all the shit in High Stakes because sometimes some really good players posts, but the mid stakes forum seems pretty nitty too me.
