Re: Phil Ivey on Prima Poker?
so it's still a mystery? although there seems to be a consensus that it's not phil, and more likely to be spirit rock.

Re: 10/20 NL hand
Yeah, he knows I'm awesome. Apparently not awesome enough. On the flop I said to myself, he can't raise like that with anything other than a set of jacks. But I called anyway, and then on the turn...

Re: Results
Most of you have figured out that he had 99, if not for the sole reason that I probably wouldn't have posted this hand in any other circumstance.
I'm pretty insistent on the fact that regardless...

Re: 2/4 NL hand
[ QUOTE ]
You seem to be aiming at inducing a small bluff on the turn or the river when you are holding a monster when it is entirely possible he has a strong hand that he is slow playing.

Re: 2/4 NL hand
Because he's put me on something like AK, AJ, or KJ etc after checking the flop and putting out a weak bet on the turn.

Re: 2/4 NL hand
Here's how I look at this hand.
The flop check is questionable. But given that he checked the flop, and checked the turn after I checked the flop behind him, it is virtually impossible for me to...

Re: Shallow money, multiway action
I would say that if you only have 4x - 6x bb, you are in push or fold mode. Your stack is in trouble at this point, and you want to be aggressive fire away with weaker hands. This means moving in...

Re: 5/10NL Hand v. AJo
Well-played, I don't think he has the J in this situation. In fact, I don't even think he has the A, and if he does, it's a weak one. I think it was a good idea to play cautiously as you did.

Re: Shallow money, multiway action

If you're going to fold when you have the best of it and are seeing a positive expected value just because you're all-in, you might as well not play poker. The whole point of no-limit is to get into...

Re: 1/2 NL Was I drawing dead?
Seems to me like your betting structure was designed such that you could fold the river to a large reraise. I think you layed it down fine, I think your opponent may have rivered Qs up over Js or...

Re: Evaluate my PF play (JJ)
Raising to target one player may backfire when the player calls and you get played over the top by another. The size of your raise seems fine here, although I'd consider smooth calling the min raise...
