Subject: WHEN TO FOLD .. many dont know this N/L HE
|
Several time over the last 5-6 years I have tried to make this one work ,
both as a player and as a floorman .
Many people dont know this but if you are in a n/l game and the player on
your right declares a raise , it is TERRIBLE etiquette to immediately
throw your cards away.
You are obligated due to your stack size and to the other players in the
pot NOT TO FOLD until the raiser declares his raise amount.
I have met great adversity in trying to enforce it in games , as a
player, and as a floorman. people dont understand it and dont want to !!
I brought it up at Oneida in GB and even Todd the Wonderfloor idjut didnt
understand or comprehend it !!
NO FRIGGEN CLUE
I would be willing to bet that 40% dont know this rule , and that less
than 20% practice it !!
yeah .. I know .. all the TVSM's knew this !!

In a similar vein, some poker rooms forbid (or frown on) the custom of
"checking out," that is, folding when all players to your right have
checked. Essentially, even though it's your turn, you're not supposed
to fold until there is actually a bet, no matter how hopeless your
hand seems to be.

If this is your biggest concern in life, you need something more important
to worry about. Is it technically wrong? Yes. Might it affect the raise
size? Maybe.
But your example with stack sizes was an incredibly shitty one. All raises
are effectively the same size against opponent 1 as even a min-raise to
600 commits him if he calls it. So in your poker ignorance you posted a
situation where the two premature folds have no effect on the hand
whatsoever.
What does it say about you that you made a glaring mistake in a thread
where you were berating "TVSMs"? I'm going to go out on a limb and guess
the TVSMs have the best of it, at least when they're playing you. That's
why you lose at micro SnGs.

uh!! hello..MORON .. yes after the folds , it eliminates all the guess
work ,but
WHAT ABOUT BEFORE THEY FOLD IF THEY WERE TO DO IT CORRECTLY .. your
concerns are many with all kinds of options and variations .
Here is one you didnt think of .. suppose you want to min-raise and make
it 600 to the 2 guys on your left , and you hope one of em calls , and
then you hope that "short stack" will go allin and you can "whip saw'
either of the other 2 'big stack' callers , and make em lay down whatever
hand they have , and you can get an extra 600 "dead money" after you make
em fold .
personally I like min raising a guy who leads when you absolutely want him
to call .. say you make the nut straight on the turn , and there is an ace
on the board and it is suited to one of the other cards .. thus .. a 3rd
card to the suit will not harm you if you KNOW he has an ace in his hand .
is this too far over your head ?
let me know if you need some help understanding this
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

Doggy, you are massively confused as usual. In the example you posted,
players 3 and 4 are folding no matter what. The only question is whether
they fold before or after player 2 picks a raise size.
In this case, since all raise sizes affect player 1 equally, it makes NO
DIFFERENCE.
You gave a horrible example. Now go back to losing to the kids on Stars -
it suits you.

doggy you didnt say multiple players folding, i understand if its multiway
the original better now has the oppurtunity to change his bet size because
he is up against less opponents (and a different situation). you said the
guy on his left. i have always thought the 'raise' and 'amount' should be
announced one after the other. i see so many idiots say 'raise' then look
at their opponents to get a read and adjust the size of their bet.
back on subject, one guy to the left that goes ahead and snap folds after
the player to his right announces raise is not a big deal. the game is
slow enough as it is. now 3 guys doing this and leaving only one player
left to act is wrong. but i've never seen it happen. its rare to find
two guys in a row that will both fold after hearing 'raise', usually
someone has the courtesy to wait for the amount.

so in other words in paragraph one you seem to understand that 2+2=4
yet in the second paragraph you seem lost when asked to consider what
2+2+2.. equals !!

how in the world can you write such a 'perfect" first paragraph , and then
follow it with ridiculous logic like this ^^
if one of two does it , then that is one less opponent ..DUH!!!! whether
it is one of 2 or 2 out of 4 who do it .. it has a huge affect

when the pot is head up im guessing your the guy that raises hell when
player B folds after only hearing "raise" from player A. we all know you
need to see how big the raise was gonna be so you could you use it as a
tell later on in the game!! sir you are a nit, some things never change i
guess.

It totally is, and the penalty for doing so is... It kills your hand.
And it does so.
There are real practical problems with this whole rule. First, is that
most of the time, it helps the raiser rather than hurts the raiser.
That help, must by definition come out of the hide of the caller. But
it becomes really hard to determine the value of that problem for them.
But whether or not the person ahead of them folds or doesn't "out of
turn" gives them more or less information.
Secondly, strong players as raisers are very rarely going to be hurt by
this.
From a mild rounders style collusion, the regulars are going to fully
understand.
Ultimately if it is done by a weak stranger, then this rule mistake and
a whole litany of other rule mistakes provide a better picture to that
players hands, and help the better players eventually separate them from
their cash.
Almost always, the people that seem to get the most upset about this,
are the rule angle-shooters. The ones that try and gain advantage by
enforcing the rules. These peoples are almost universally pricks, and
are not welcomed by the stronger players or the weaker players. And
should become ostracized and not listened to.
There is a narrow class of pricks that try to take advantage by
repeatedly taking advantage of lax enforcement of the rules. The rules
should be fiercely enforced against them, and when they complain about
uneven enforcement they should be pointed to the suggestion box and the
door. And the enforcers, and the abusers can go play with themselves.
The stronger players, and the weaker players, will focus on playing a
fun structured game, without so many pricks.

Jonathon, your response is 100% wrong. Say I am in middle position, and I
announce "raise" but no amount yet. I may be planning on raising 3x the
BB. Now the guy to my left has already folded, giving me one less guy to
get past, so I change my mind and make it a 4x raise.
You don't see how this hurts everybody else yet to act?

let me try to explain this so that even you can understand it !!
4 players in a pot ..player 1 has 1100, player 2 has 2500, player 3 has
3500, player 4 has 2800
player 1 bets 300 into a 300 dollar pot , and player 2 announces 'raise",
players 3 and 4 immediately muck their hands . When players 3 and 4 muck
their hands , player 2 no longer needs to play against their stacks , or
worry about what they might do behind his raise .
if they still had their hands and had not indicated that they were folding
, he would naturally have some concerns about getting felted or crippled
by a stack that can do him some serious damage .
Now that he knows they are not going to play, his options against the
remaining one player with a stack smaller than his are far easier to weigh.
This may surprise you , but there are games out there where people are
playing with more than your normal 85 dollar stack in a 1-2 game. Or even
some people who play 2-5 with more than the 200 you suggested in one of
your latest posts !!
And by the way , you are in no position EVER to call anyone a "NIT". You
admitted to lying about the games in Tunica , and you admitted to lying
about your "trust fund " situation , so maybe you should think just a bit
before responding with such a lame viewpoint .

here is one for you .. 4 guys in a pot . small stack bets .. next guy says

did the bettor get any protection from the other 2 guys who had full
