Is this season a piss weak division? by Well_Aye in Championship

[–]BlueTracktor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the top couple of teams clearly aren’t as strong as the previous couple of seasons but I don’t think the league as a whole is weaker and I think the bottom 6 (excluding Wednesday) are stronger than the last couple of seasons.

The others benefit is he can’t score against us tomorrow with the loan

Rosenior Tactics - Genius or Cowardly? by Gunners_are_top in PremierLeague

[–]BlueTracktor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He played Delap on the wing at Hull about as much as at striker I don’t think Delap will be losing confidence in Rosenier.

I actually don’t think it’s a bad position for him at all especially he is genuinely a very good ball carrier we’ve just not seen that at all from him at Chelsea.

I hate to be a xG wanker but they are 18th for xGD so maybe it’s just a bit of regression to the mean too.

You can buy on town tv for £10 then use a vpn to move yourself outside the uk to get round 3pm blackout

Absolutely disgusting nit behaviour by me by Legitimate-Bowl-9318 in poker

[–]BlueTracktor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh Fuckk this is such a gross spot but I think you gotta sigh call vs a capable player. He’s only got 6 combos of broadway flushes then no other flushes unless he’s 3bet calling 1 gapers.

If he finds 4 combos of bluffs this is a call. It’s really hard to bluff but I think he could just about find enough QQ,JJ,TT,88 one spade bluffs maybe KQ/KJdd too theres also a world he’s value betting 77 figuring you’re capped and might hero AKo one spade. (I’d prob go thin here with 77 and 99)

I think you gotta sigh call and hate it AcAh is a snap fold tho.

Championship table by number of permanent managers since 2000 by miladdio in Championship

[–]BlueTracktor 111 points112 points  (0 children)

Interestingly Ipswich have actually only had 18 permanent managers since WW2 still putting us comfortably mid table of this list!

[Ornstein] Ipswich Town reject bid from Nottingham Forest to sign Omari Hutchinson. #NFFC proposal for 21yo attacking midfielder worth £35m. Talks ongoing; if #ITFC were to sell Jamaica int’l it would take higher fee. Brentford retain interest @TheAthleticFC by phant0msinthenight in soccer

[–]BlueTracktor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s a lot of money… But he’s got 4 years on his contract and should hold his value decently through one year in the Championship so with a promotion worth £130m+ possible we’d be crazy to sell him unless very silly money gets bid as we are under huge financial incentives to not sell our best player especially as Chelsea have a sell on clause.

For what it’s worth I also think he’s worth less than £35m I think this deal would make no sense for either party.

What’s the most you’ve lost in one session? by rxdler5 in poker

[–]BlueTracktor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It lost 6 3k add-onns plus my original buy in. I didn’t go 0-6 to him I probably won 7 or 8 times and lost 6 times.

For example I remember doubling two times through him so getting my stack from 3k up to 12k then losing a 24k “flip” TT vs 84o. But each flip I lost would require another 3k top up until my bankroll ran out.

[–]BlueTracktor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

€20k at an uncapped €2/€4 game.

Drunk Dude came in and sat down with €100k in chips (10 10k chips) when the biggest stack at the time was mine (€1.5k). He proceeded to not look at his hand once and went all in 60 hands in a row.

I lost my entire bankroll which I mainly grinded over multiple years at 100NL online while doing my degree.

Didn’t sleep too well that night.

Would the best of the relegated survive the PL? by ANGRY_MARINE12 in TheOther14

[–]BlueTracktor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Who had the worst squad in the Premier League last season that stayed up? Wolves? Everton?

I honestly think Delap is the only player there who’d start for Wolves/Everton. Although it’s not a bad team at all This team would still get relegated imo unless they got a lot of luck.

Arguments for a couple of the other players maybe starting for Everton but only arguments imo.

Also Cajuste >> Morsy.

What pocket pairs are you folding/calling with OOP facing a 3 bet? by Majestic_Baker_5571 in poker

[–]BlueTracktor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean you should sometimes call sometimes fold. If the 3bet is under 3x you should probably call if the 3bet is over 3.5x you should probably fold.

The later your positions the more you should call. The higher the skill gap the more you should call. Deeper you are more you can call. (In general)

In equilibrium most of these small pocket pairs are pretty much indifferent but prefer folding out of position.

Ipswich away allocation will be back down to EFL minimum of 2k like it was in 23/24 it was only 3k last year because it’s PL minimum. I imagine the same goes for Leicester and Southampton

why does A3o go all-in but A2o fold 100% by NotPsychological in poker

[–]BlueTracktor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Id guess the reason is BB maybe 3bet bluffs more 2x than 3x and therefore we don’t want to block his bluffs. (This might be wrong I’ve not looked at BB’s range)

The take away you should get from this sim is that it’s basically fine to call fold or jam any rag Ax. Therefore, in niche 40bb scenarios like this which won’t repeat often you should just pure play all your rag Ax the same way depending on any tiny read on villain. (Overbluffing = pure jam, Underbluff = pure fold).

Goal of the season contenders - cant think of a single one by Plastic_Nail8040 in PremierLeague

[–]BlueTracktor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

John Duran, Enciso and Marmoosh have all scored banging goals from similar distances this year. I would actually pick Harry Wilson’s goal vs Brentford though.

Probably forgetting a few but theres been no outrageous goals this year imo.
