  2. i love it... but i have 1 question...

    i'm just a dumb sng grinder so i don't play any real poker but i'm trying to play some more mtt's, and the concept of floating seems to be thrown around alot...

    when you say you are floating w/ J5 on that AT7 flop, what do you mean... i thought the concept of floating was calling so a scare card would come that you could represent... what does the 2 on the turn allow you to represent that wouldn't have come through on the flop...

    or is my view of floating wrong, and in this case you are simply making it look like you flat called w/ a monster and then raised the turn when he stuck a nice bet in there...

    please explain someone?
  3. i always wanted to know this too

    someone please explain!
  4. I hope millions of players worldwide start playing this style.
  5. i always thought floating meant hitting every hand but i dunno
  6. I think the two is irrelevant in this situation... U dont have to always wait for a scare card to float. In this case the scare card was on the flop.
  7. It means calling with AIR, thus the whole "floating" terminology. And I guess it applies with "scare" cards, but usually it is used when you think your opponent is c-betting or leading out with some air of his own, and you intend to slow him down on the next street by smooth calling. If he checks, or in this case, leads weak again, then you can make a move at the pot.

    Floating owns, but it is also responsible for 99% of the times I get my money in drawing dead. :)
  8. i always thought floating meant to levitate in the air magically
     
  9. BeL0WaB0Ve said, "im BeL0WaB0Ve fooooooooooooo"

    hahaha. youre g00t
  10. ok cause floating caused me to bust this weekend.

    ok cause i played in a tourney this weekend and tried to float the flop and pot the turn with my low pair and ended up busting after getting runner-runner'd.
  11. "Tilting is fun" when you're a baller, otherwise it basically sucks donkey balls.
  12. root beer float?
  13. awful dude

  14. how do u post hand histories when your making a post......i got some good ones saved not as good as the 93 hand
  15. For some reason P5s wouldnt come up for me earlier. I really Reallr REALLY TILTED bad today, causing me to take the night off....

    This was just horrible, ended up getting 8th, BC I'm retarded and just went OC
