Degenerate Zombies

Like I mentioned from my last blog, I played 3/6 Limit holdem at the Hawaiian Gardens Casino. Los Angeles is is one of the remaining mecca for LHE, this is where you can find 24 hrs of LHE and Commerce casino is the best here.

However LHE in Vegas is dying, gone are the days where the wait list for 15/30 at the Bellagio is more than an hour. Bellagio could not even get 8/16 going on a regular day and when its going its normally shorthanded.

Anyway, back to my homebase casino, Hawaiian Gardens, I look around and see familiar faces, they play a table, stand up scope other tables and request table change if needed. They walk like degenerate zombies constantly looking for fresh meat, I do the same thing once in while but most of the time I stick to my table and let other people move to other tables.

I also notice that there's some tight players here who doesn't like to play against me because they know I'm a three bettor. I sometimes limp UTG with hands like AQ offsuit on full ring games and if button/SB/BB raise then I would 3 bet especially if there's a lot of limpers between me and the raiser. This will not only build the pot but force some players in between to fold, these tight players they would just call with AQ offsuit and let the limpers come in too and then would get mad when their flopped Ace does not hold up.

When you are playing full ring game LHE, isolating players is very important, I can't stress this enough, when you are next to a bet, raise it if you have top pair or a pair with good draws, it doesn't matter if your kicker is low, this will force the next player to fold, now if next player or the initial bettor three bets then that's the time to look at the board and decide if you want to proceed to the turn, lesser the players involved the more chances of you winning the pot.

The stock market continuing to decline is getting me worried but I'm taking it like a man, like a real man Chuck Norris, my main man, he's such a bad ass that he only needs one card when playing Omaha.
