If your hand gets shown, and people are paying enough attention to see what you did, you may get paid more next time you have a big pair, because people will think you're playing the little cards again. If you make a straight, it will be completely disguised. <br /><br />Etc. <br /><br />In short, playing suited connectors (and other hands) in late position the same way as you do your big pairs makes you a much, much more difficult player for opponents to read. Conversely, if you consistently limp with hands like this but raise with AK and big pairs, you're basically playing with your cards face up.

I could have picked up the blinds and limpers $ w/o even seeing the flop.<br /><br />2. If I saw the flop, I could have won the pot with a c-bet on the flop.<br /><br />3. It might have helped changed my image so that I would have gotten more calls later with my value bets.<br /><br />I promise to play better in the future--or at least try.

Definitely showing my age here.<br /><br />I played at the Rio before. The game started much like you described. After a couple of hours, a couple of regs showed up who were better than the tourists at the table. Decent experience for me, but nothing in particular that would make me want to go back during non-WSOP times.lightning36https://www.blogger.com/profile/05641629003610446976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-24120727363320998972014-04-06T15:21:07.051-07:002014-04-06T15:21:07.051-07:00mayb yoga pants and a sports bra.LMAO but only so ...mayb yoga pants and a sports bra.LMAO but only so she can take them off slowlyangerisagifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01945967112589502437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-86429086606534270902014-04-06T12:58:34.733-07:002014-04-06T12:58:34.733-07:00we need to change to PG-13 then. lol.we need to change to PG-13 then. lol.angerisagifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01945967112589502437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-4884167477083541512014-04-06T12:54:21.628-07:002014-04-06T12:54:21.628-07:00Thanks, anger.
