    Default Interesting hand

    i dont have the HH because wpx is hit or miss if it wants to give it to you or not, but:

    were playing 4 handed 200nl. 2 players at the table are terrible, the guy on my right is a 2p2er, CR member, and all around really smart, thinking lag player, probably the only player at 100/200nl on wpx that might be a bigger winner than I am. He is very aggressive preflop.

    Folds to this player in the sb. his standard raise is 4x, to $8.

    He open raises to $80.

    I have AQs. I have played with him 2 weeks straight and he has never done this before. I am sure of a few things:

    -His range to raise blind vs blind is HUGE. AQ is way ahead of this range.
    -I am very certain me misclicked

    I shove.

    Like?

    Pretty Marginal spot in my opinion.

    1st of all - I will occasionally do this with AA to look like a misclick.

    2nd of all - mistype to $80 seems less likely than a mistype to $87,$88
    or $89.

    How can you accidently hit the 0 when hitting enter? They're close to 2 inches apart on my keyboard.

    I agree with wota.

    What was each of your stacks, but more importantly I assume he folded?

    sometimes you can accidentaily click the slider and it moves randomly to a number. the slider DOES NOT WORK like on pokerstars.

    i make misclicks all the time on wpx.

    100bb stacks

    results: he types "gaaaambooool" in the chat, then a smily face, and calls with AT

    i message him on 2p2 and he indeed confirms that it was a misclick

    Ok, that makes it completely different. I'm used to stars and didn't think about the slider moving randomly.

    man he must have money to burn

    excellent read btw.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.

    I think a call isn't terrible.

    He has to put 120 into 280 and so is getting 2.3 -1 on his money. If he respects TA's games and knows TA will realise it's a misclick he probably has to give him credit for pushing a somewhat wide range.

    Against 88+ and AQ+ he is going to win 30% of the time. What actually do you push here TA? Do you ever make a move with KT like Phil Ivey would?


    Assuming 88+ and AQ+ :

    30% of time he gains $280 and 70% of time he loses $120.

    .3 x +280 = 84
    .7 x -120 = 84
    EV = 0

    So if TA pushes 88+ and AQ+ its neutral EV to call or fold.

    Yeah you're right wota, I didn't see the stack sizes.
