Re: 5/10 SH party QQ in BB
I hate this coup. If you get big money in you can't be in good shape unless the SB is a donk massively overplaying AJ. If you raise the flop and he is happy to indulge in a betting competition you...

Re: Check. Call. Reraise. Yuck? 600 pl
Hmm, what are your views on the player you are up against? I am guessing that his check raise could be anything from top two, trip 7's/10's, or since he was getting a nice price to play any suited...

I can understand why you might be getting a shade nervous, but I do think that with Eurobet you aren't in any trouble of getting stiffed and not getting paid. Eurobet is a small adjunct to a large UK...

Re: River Bluff
I doubt I'd be inclined to give up a flush draw to your flop raise, especially if I had either a straight draw, or an Ace as a probable over card to give me extra outs. When you raise the flop I...

Re: River Bluff
His bet on the turn looks for all the world like a stopper bet, simply trying to stop you from puttin in a proper bet and allowing him to see the turn cheaply with his flush draw. I would be tempted...

Re: how shady is this?
In the betting industry this would be termed a 'palpable error', IE a price that is so far away from where the market is that it is obvious that one of the junior's putting the prices on their...

Re: 7c4c bb
What hand did you put the villain on when he limit raised the turn. This looks like a very controlled play from the villain rather than a tilted fish play. It smells like he has his hand and wants to...

Re: to push or not to push - that is the question
I'd bet the flop here. With so many draws on the board there is every chance you will get action, and it disguises your hand because people tend not to lead with top set. Sometimes everyone will fold...

Re: Beating up on weak tight nits.
Which card on the flop is the spade? I think it makes a big difference. Either he has his hand on the flop and he's made a decision he's going to check raise you on the turn to 'teach you a lesson.'...

Re: 5/10 party - JJ on the button
I think there are so many hands that you can beat here that you have to call. All you have done here is made a button raise when everyone else has passed, so he isn't putting you on a monster. If he...

Re: Crazy Action, Flopped top set. 2/5 NL
Is it horribly weak to raise the flop here? I'm used to playing deep stack PL rather than NL but with two deep stacked opponents I'd rather raise here to try and isolate one of the big stacks,stop...

Re: Party 600NL - Bottom set - heavy action
I think your hand is good. With the number of callers by the time it had got back to him, a lot of people would reraise with queens, possibly even jacks to thin the field. I'd probably flat call...

Re: all in on a draw
I don't like the allin bet. I guess he doesn't really have much of a handle on you, so what is he going to read you for with your big overbet? I'd guess that he reads you as being weak, with your...

Re: UB 25-50 hand
I like the river bet. My only reservation would be will this guy check raise bluff you? If you get check raised and you know you can ditch that is one thing, but if he is a tricky enough player that...

There isn't anything intrinsically wrong with folding a hand if you are certain you are beat, be it KK or 2-7o. I'm sure most players that post here have folded this hand when they were convinced...

I think this is an interesting situation. Normally your equity with this type of hand against a made hand is firmly on the flop, if a 2 /images/graemlins/club.gif appears on the turn your hand value...

Re: just bet the damn thing
Given the lack of draws on the flop he is obviously calling you down with a made hand. Did he show you the Ace big that you were putting him on, or had he flopped trips and lost the use of his arms?
