Re: Another 5/10 hand for review

Re: 5/10 Stars KK hand...standard, right?

point being that leading that strong only gets action from hands that beat me? Fair enough...what's a better plan for the flop though?

Re: 5/10 NL hand @ Borg

I'm suprised everybody is so married to check raising the turn, although I suppose it is the standard line. Villian has just seen me lead into a field of seven players on the flop and call his raise...

Re: How do I maximize on this MONSTER flop, ie when to raise?

Unlike other posters, I don't hate the flat call on the flop, although my reasoning is different than yours. You say you just flat called to keep all 3 players in the pot, which is OK...but you're...
