    Default Critique this

    Not sure If this was smart or not. Critique this one. Only played one round, no info on the BB. Preflop was supposed to look weak to look like a weka steal, and was going to play as I did from the flop on as long as no overs hit.

    Might not have pushed the turn, but pushing isn't a bad move. Good play I think.

    The reason for the wanting of the call, I had a long day (see ARG!) and was getting sick of winning small pots (ie, was willing to lose a big one) Bad Marm, I know... but TILT is an evil creature.

    Yes, I had a horrible day yesterday, but I am currently tearing up the $.05/.10 LHE tables.

    Good play. I don't think he would have called 1.60 (almost 2x pot) with a straight draw. It screamed overbet.

    Not constructive, why don't you like it? He explained why he did it.

    I know what beav meant. He doesn't need to explain his reasonings to me, they tend to be very similar.
