Re: i knew he was gonna do that
Any merit to checking this flop?
You are out of position against 2 opponents, and with that board (3 cards in playing zone) I don't think you are taking this down with a flop bet. In fact, you...

Re: 10/20 SB Hand 1
I might check that flop, it really is a bad flop for your hand. I don't think I'd lead the turn either, bad card.

Re: 10/20 SB Hand 2
Folding the turn is ok as people have suggested, but if you did have some kind of read that he was an aggressive player then I think the calldown is fine.

Re: A HU hand. River play.
Sounds like you are trying something out, but I'd usually 3-bet this preflop.
I'd check/call the river.
You have to show this down, but he very well could have a flush. If he is decent then I...

Hmm, tough one. Ace is certainly the most common holding for villian here. Most other possibilities would have raised the flop (like 88).
With the club I like check calling the turn...

Re: the felt is not mi casa today
Hand 1: Without a read I'd let it go on the flop, lots of ways for you to be behind. I'd also consider capping preflop.
Hand 2: I'd bet, you hate to give a free card here. Getting raised is...

Turn question w/ QQ, Party 30/60.

My only experience with the villian in this hand is from playing shorthanded with him, he was an aggressive and fairly tough player.
Villian open raises UTG+1, folded to...

Re: 20/40 hand. I don\'t know about this one.
Against two players I fire almost every time, against three I think it's real close and you should mix it up some percentage of the time, table dynamics play into this too.
I may fire once here...

I like every street. I think the turn is the only question, to 3-bet or not...but his stats aren't too far out of line so I think a call down is fine.
