SMiLE when you get A4

Last time I showed you the concept of pot control when I played A4 in late position during a tournament in the online casino of Pokerstars (casino.org for more information on internet casinos). I played another such tournament the other day and as a matter of coïncedence I won another nice pot… with A4. However, this time it was suited and I had to play it in early position. So instead of pot control, it’s all about ‘raising on a draw’ today. In the end, I’ll show you what are the best albums of all time in my humble opinion.

Now what happened at the online tables? It was again during those early blind levels and like I said, I get A4 suited under the gun (UTG). A standard move is to limp there, but if you feel you’re on fire, you can as well raise there. I limp and flop a very cheap nut flushdraw. Let’s watch the rest:

The BB leads out with a minimum bet. I raise of course, not only because this bet was a sign of weakness, but also because I hope this guy will slow down on the turn if I don’t catch my diamond. So as a matter of fact, I try again to get the pot control in this hand. Everybody calls, so I know it’s gonna be sweetness when I catch my card. The BB leads out again with a slightly bigger bet and on that moment I hope this guy was also on a diamond draw so I just call so this guy would bet on the river again. As a matter of fact, he made two pair on the turn, but I think I made more chips this way instead of raising him immediately on the turn. You can read more tips on this matter at www.casino.org .

I completed my list of 50 greatest albums of all time meanwhile, and you can check out the list here . As you can see, George Harrison is in there four times, three times with the Fab Four and with the solo album. Animal Collective and Tool are responsible for the albums from the past 10 years and at the top you can find the legendary epic Tull album, right behind ‘DSOTM’ and Brian Wilson’s masterpiece ‘SMiLE’. Discover and enjoy!
