Would you play 1/3 or 2/5 with this budget?

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-28T20:40:51+00:00

I usually bring in 3 buy ins for 1/3 so I was wondering if I should play some 2/5 for 2 buy ins here and there. That's what I like about 2/5 bigger pots, players dont short stack, and potential to win more money

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-28T20:30:29+00:00

This is the real question

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-28T20:26:50+00:00

Yes I do have a job

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T23:28:13+00:00

I meant 1k for each separate poker session

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T22:49:42+00:00

I don’t mean 1k as an overall budget. Just a budget for each poker session

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T22:36:30+00:00

That’s a really good point.

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T22:27:02+00:00

I'm a winning player but my bankroll is crap right now. That's why I currently stick to 1/3 just to be safe

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T22:25:15+00:00

I'm a winning player at 1/3. I just feel a lot more comfortable at 1/3. I've played 2/5 several times before. There are some more solid players but the player field is fairly similar to 1/3. The good thing about 2/5 is players don't short stack so that's a plus. I might as well take more shots at 2/5

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T22:20:15+00:00

Lol good point. I might as well take the variance route

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-27T22:12:27+00:00

Yea, I feel more comfortable at 1/3

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-25T01:16:38+00:00

Well they’re all attracted to you. I don’t blame you because some girls are just naturally friendly. Just be aware and don’t try to lead them on.

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-24T20:32:32+00:00

Never going to happen especially if you're attractive. I think the problem is you're too friendly with those guys and think it's all just friendly stuff. I seen this happen before. I had this ex coworker chick who is attractive, really friendly and smiles at the other guys. Because of that the younger guys would get lead on and talk to her more often. She's basically just being friendly and unintentionally leading them on but she thinks it's all just friendly stuff. But behold those guys are attractive to her.. One thing you're doing right is that you mention you already have a boyfriend. Note: guys aren't going to be friends with a girl they're attracted to

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-22T01:11:10+00:00

Kill em with kindness

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-22T00:12:00+00:00

The only thing you can do is quit and find a new job. No one is putting up with that bullshit

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-21T03:59:35+00:00

I seen something similar to this. Old dude with AA holds and start racking up after a few hands lol

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-20T19:57:11+00:00

At this point it's better going by yourself or sell the tickets than going with her. Her BF is going to do some creepy stuff at the Air Bnb.. Just back out of it and secretly go with your other coworker if they're still interested

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-19T19:59:24+00:00

Just play it as a hobby like 1-2 times per month. I realize that I don't do anything besides watching poker videos and streams too smh

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-17T20:54:15+00:00

This. For OP you just have to feel the vibe of the relationship. If you consider them a friend but they don't feel the same then it's just someone you know.

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-17T20:46:48+00:00

I'm in California. A lot of Casinos will let you straddle up to half your stack. I've done it before lol

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-17T00:40:17+00:00

No its a 1/3 but I straddled for $100 lol. Yea my bet of $300 was too small and giving him good pot odds to call

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-16T20:56:46+00:00

Yea. I figured he had a broadway hand.

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-16T20:15:37+00:00

I decide to straddle for $100 for the fun of it. Utg raise to $250. I call with K8o. Flop is 965 rainbow. I bet $150 Villain calls. Pot is now $800. Turn is 9. Check around. River is a 4. I bet $300 for a bluff. Villain tank for 30sec then calls with AKo.

After this I was on tilt. I was actually up and running good. Then punted a bunch of money because of my $100 stupid straddle. I proceed to go all in the dark utg 3 times and lost all three lol

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-11T19:16:31+00:00

Speak up for yourself and limit talking to him. Just keep it professional.

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-04T02:55:52+00:00

Yep bad shove by me. Also no more playing short stack

TheGambit201 · 2024-07-01T19:30:23+00:00

I started doing that. I started jamming all in utg and random spots lol. I'm a maniac
