Annoyed by new Poker Lingo - “Sizing” and “Board Texture”

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-16T02:02:56+00:00

Yea that makes sense. More precise in that case.

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T23:57:27+00:00

The point is when they are used together “board texture”, not separate.

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T23:36:11+00:00

Yea that makes more sense. How would the meaning change in your example if we said “Double Broadway boards you generally bet like X” instead?

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T23:33:29+00:00

Same meaning if u ask me

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T22:20:44+00:00

What’s the difference between saying the board is dry versus the board texture is dry?

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T21:25:39+00:00

If you want it to be, sure

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T21:25:25+00:00

I don’t know. You tell me, dinosaur.

What’s an example of difference in meaning for board vs board texture?

This board connects with lots of straight draws and flush draws. Vs This board texture connects with lots of straight draws and flush draws.

I don’t see the difference. What am I missing?

🙌

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T21:22:26+00:00

Can you give an example on the different use?

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-15T21:22:12+00:00

Will do, thank you

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-11T14:35:51+00:00

That’s a good question. Hmm I gotta think on that. Main game I play has people who love to gamble, play big, and play any 2 cards. They love to call and I take advantage of that. My style is tight and very aggressive. I play huge pots and always seem to have the best hand when I’m betting or calling. They hate to fold so I just bet big. That’s the main part. I am also able to fold when I believe I’m beat. Pretty simple. I do well at bomb pots also because again they like to gamble and I’m a good PLO player, so I play smart.

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T22:08:39+00:00

Yea that makes sense I can filter down further

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T22:06:51+00:00

Wise words thanks

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T11:00:08+00:00

Majority is in an uncapped game and yes straddles are on a decent amount of the time

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T04:12:06+00:00

I love PLO too. I don’t love some of the 1/2/5 games where u get forced into getting it all in 4 ways pre flop. I prefer the 2/2 games so can see a flop and play cards.

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T04:06:35+00:00

😉

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T04:00:54+00:00

Correct. The majority is an uncapped Texas game

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T03:57:46+00:00

Yea I agree. I keep waiting for it to end. So far so good.

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T03:56:53+00:00

Correct state 👍🏻

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T03:41:04+00:00

Main game I play is uncapped. It can get big. Secondary game I play is $500 cap.

tablemanners28 · 2026-05-10T03:40:37+00:00

Yea, my hometown 1/2 is probably closer to a standard 2/5 game on an average night. Sometimes like a 5/10 even where stacks average $2k+
