Poker Comments:
Playing the Rush
Its probably best to define what a rush is first. The 2 extremes of this concept are 1. a player I played with for years in the Midwest after winning a nice pot automatically played the next regardless of what his hand was. Once in a great while he won a number of hands in a row but the usual outcome was blowing off a good some of the profits from the hand he won.
The other extreme of course are the computers playing against each other. Each hand is independent of the last hand. They play each hand based upon the tendencies of there opponents play and the expected value in the card the possess.
I define a rush as getting good cards and winning with them. I don’t loosen my standards very much after I win a pot. Winnings are two hard to come by to throw it at a pot with a substandard hand.
Now there are times I will play borderline hands after winning 1 or 2 nice pots. It all depends upon the makeup of the players I am playing against. If all or most are the superstitious types who are going to go out of there way to not play against me I will try to take advantage of this.
But if I am up against top players that are aware that I may be playing less then optimal hands because I have just won a few nice pots….I may not change my style at all.
Yes there are players that actually take advantage of people who think they may be on a rush. They look for players that believe in rushes . They know the player is likely playing a substandard hand because he feels he is on a rush and they then give him all the “action” he wants to take advantage of this.
