Oggi girovagando in internet ho trovato questo articolo su betafir.com che riporto integralmente. Narra, tra le altre cose, della mano con cui è uscita a Praga vs il ns. Spigolon. Ne ho apprezzato le considerazioni sulla modalità di gioco e, semprechè ce ne fosse bisogno, dimostra quanto la ragazza faccia valutazioni eccellenti (almeno a mio modestissimo parere).

EPT Prague
Got to Prague on Monday. Didn''t do much the first day. Checked in, and went down to the poker room to check out the action. Jumped in a 200-500 plo game (CZK currency)... think it was like a 10-20 Euro game...

Sat with 80,000 and lost it all in about an hour when I got it all in with 8x9xTdJd vs 77(Cant remember the last two cards but lets just say)A2 on a 7x9x4d flop, diamond on the turn so had a ton of equity vs his hand but bricked the river. Had some left and lost that too when I flopped top two vs As and got counterfeited on the river. Oh well.

The next day I registered for the main event. I started out really well. Didn''t play any big pots was but raising quite a big in the beginning to establish a good laggy image so I''d get action on my good hands. I hadn''t reraised anyone at this point until this hand comes up: 75-150, I have about 8500. The sb is sitting out and the bb just got back to the table to see his hand getting mucked cuz he wasn''t sitting down. Was very easy to see that utg+2 picked up on this as well and decided to raise to 400. I''m in the CO with J4o. I had pretty much decided to reraise before looking at my cards so they were kinda irrelevant. I made it 1150 fully expecting him to fold. I knew he was a decent player cuz he was playing pretty aggressively, not doing anything stupid and he was also talking to a really good internet player earlier that day, so if they''re friends they might have discussed strategies etc with eachother online, so I just assumed he knew what he was doing. He surprisingly calls my raise and the flop comes JJ9 with two hearts. Dream flop for me. He checks and I make a big bet of 2050. I''m pretty sure he''s gonna put me on a hand like AK, AQ here not wanting action because if I had an overpair id prolly bet smaller to induce a check/raise shove, but by making this bet it looks like I''m committed when I''m really not. I was right and he ships it in with KcQc and misses the four outs. I''m up to about 18000 after this hand.

About an hour or so later and 3k chips shorter from having to fold a lot to reraises and missing a lot of flops with my strong hands, this is how I bust: A guy in the 40s limps in the CO for 200. Don''t have a very good read on him yet, but 90% of the time when someone limps in LP they have trash and just wants to see a flop. The button, who is a very very good online player makes an isolation raise of 800 trying to get the pot HU with the limper. I''m pretty sure his range there is prolly about 50% of the hands, so this is free chips for me. I reraise to 2800 with 95o. Again, the cards don''t mean anything because I know pretty well how he plays and he''s never gonna just flatcall this without a monster hand. Maybe JJ+AK. If I do get called by him I''m shutting down completely. What really threw me off was that the limper cold called! The reraise and the raiser folded as expected. I didn''t really know what to think of this since I had already put him on a weak hand. Figured maybe he had a hand he wanted to see a flop with like QKs cuz ppl never fold that hand. Maybe even AK, small pair etc. No way I put QQ+ in his range playing the hand the way he did. The flop 8c2x2c. I check with the intention of check raising all in if he bets or trying to represent a big pair slow playing on a dry flop. If I bet I''m giving him a chance to push me off my hand with something like 66-TT which will fold to a check raise for sure. So I just decided I wanted to have the last word here and try to make my hand look very strong. He checks behind. The turn is a J. Good card for me to bluff at so I lead for 3800 leaving myself with about 10,000 behind so I have a good stack to shove river if he calls. He does call rather quickly which again really smelled like a draw to me cuz I had no clue what to put him on. The river was a blank 3 I think. I ship in the rest not wanting to give up on the pot after putting in that many chips, and all draws missed so he''d have to fold a fair amount of the time. He calls and flips KK and I just mucked and left the table. The whole hand was just weird and his line made absolutely no sense to me so I can honestly say I got owned really hard there lol. I''m not the type to sit around and grind at 10k the first day just hoping to make it to day two so busting early isn''t necessarily a bad thing as long as I do good when I do make it deep

Went up to my room after this and played some online tourneys. My tournament on Betfair went to hell again as usual haha. Don''t know why I can''t cash in it. Prolly because of the bounty and the fact that I haven''t adjusted to the play on the site yet. The dynamics and type of players are way different than I''m used to and I haven''t quite figured out how to deal with it I think. Hopefully I''ll get it right soon!

Will be doing some damage in the 2k side event tomorrow! Looking forward to it

Madonna mia, non avevo mai letto la mano... certo che neanche annette poteva mai immaginare quanto possono essere donkeys gli italiani agli EPT.

Cmq effettivamente ammette di essere stata "owned", perchè alle scimmie bisogna sapersi adattare; l''errore è stato sicuramente suo perchè ha sbagliato lettura.

Riguardo la profondità di pensiero, che dire, stiamo parlando della numero 1 al mondo (secondo me), non mi meraviglia il fatto che sia su un altro pianeta rispetto a noi comuni mortali...

Si vede che annette non ha esperienza nei torneini dei circoli italiani... il limp coldcall al reraise di un altro con una monster è uno standard lol uhauhauh.
Cmq molto interessante il thread...

bello

io praticamente... ho capito i numeri

non scritti in lettere ovviamente

Il problema secondo me è sempre lo stesso: bisogna sempre giocare l''avversario, se è un donk bisogna giocare da donk e non da raffinati

Non può essere che l''italian villain conoscendo lo stile aggro di Annette (e del bottone pure) abbia voluto tirargli una bella trappola come poi è effetivamente stato?

Bah..grandissimo ragionamento pre-flop senza dubbio ma poi
su che draw lo puoi mettere al flop/turn uno che ti chiama un rilancio del genere pre-flop?
forse solo qk suited per il colore..non certo 910 per la scala..

Tra l''altro una coppia d''assi e/o una coppia di re che lei voleva rappresentare non l''avrebbe mai giocata cosi'' su quel board che comunque rimane pericoloso.
Non conosci l''avversario,vedi che ti sta chiamando senza remore e tu continui a bluffare fino al river?
oh,aspetta lei e'' annette..


nh spigolon!

GRANDE SPIGOLON l''hai ingravidata !!!! MUAHAHAHAAHAHH altro che owned io direi raped!
