On tilt at Tilt

I hate Full Tilt. I totally have the doomswitch there.

So I build a stack with nice play:


Full Tilt Poker Game #12058870169: $10 + $1 Sit & Go (90271822), Table 1 - 30/60 - No Limit Hold'em - 7:01:36 ET - 2009/05/06

A bad player who has been raising quite a lot. I think he will get out of the way of a threebet though, so I'm going to make it enticing.

Nice.

Gin.

"I am scared of that ace."

Facial Freddy bets 410

He is repping the jack? I am thinking maybe he has TT, something like that, but KJ is not impossible.

basatagirl calls 410

I have the nuts, so no need to scare him off.


*** RIVER *** [3s Ac 8h Jd] [Js]

Please let him have a jack.

Hmmm. I bet a suspiciously small amount. I'd like to double, but I figure if I shove, he's going to fold some of his range. I'm not sure what he can actually have that he can call with. I'm trying to get a call on suspicion.

He has AQ. Meh. Well, he may still have folded that to a shove.

Anyway, he is on two tables, and on the other one he's shoving like a lunatic. On this one, he's raising a bit too much: 17%.

Full Tilt Poker Game #12059021871: $10 + $1 Sit & Go (90271822), Table 1 - 80/160 - No Limit Hold'em - 7:22:02 ET - 2009/05/06
Seat 2: cptwingrave (3,780)
Seat 3: williw1971 (770)
Seat 5: Antwany (1,070)
Seat 7: Facial Freddy (1,415)
Seat 8: basatagirl (2,750)

My stack has dwindled because I've had a couple of decent hands in the small blind, raised and the fish in the big blind has called both times and outflopped me.

Seat 9: JTAced (3,715)

Which is part of the reason he has this big stack.

So his range is pretty wide imo.

Probably should just 3bet but let's face it, I'm not going to fold if one of the bigger stacks comes over the top.

Fuck that. Yet again JJ runs into a bigger pair. Should I have been suspicious because he raised, rather than shoving? Well maybe but what am I going to do, even if I am suspicious?

So that sucked. I dunno. What else could I do? These fucking idiots raise their whole range, so it's not like if he shoves, he has AT, but if he raises, beware. It's just really unlucky that yet again, JJ has been dogshit.

Two hands later:

Standard ATC shove. Even though the guy's a fish, I expect him to call tight.

That's ridiculous though. Fucking doomswitch, I tell you.

I don't play much on Tilt. I don't like the interface or something. Well, truth is, it always sucks. I play a few games, tear it up, and then have like 12 games out of the money. I'm actually losing money at the $10s at Tilt, which are even softer than Stars, but I have only played about 30 (usually play 12s and only played $10s because Stars had two winning players each signed up to like 10 games and no one regging at all). I have rakeback and all that, but I just have nagging doubts about Tilt. Dunno why. Just something shady about the site. And I like Stars.
