Re: What to play UTG preflop

you might consider limping 99 from early position in that game and raise TT+.
limp KQo unless you raise it. I like raising KQs.
also limp AJo and any weak suited broadway.

Re: Horrible board, massive pot

getting 28-1 to close the river action I think it would be bad to fold to the raise. you will kick yourself the 4% of the time your hand is good.

Re: 2/4 Value bet this river?

I agree with a bet-fold in this circumstance, it's much more clear cut than in other instances where this play in sometimes (wrongly imo) suggested.

ok, now it seems there is a fairly unanimous frown of disdain at this cold call, but no one seems to be providing much explaination other than it's bad without more cold callers first.

Re: Show this down?

improving your game is not about finding good places to "make big lay downs". getting 14-1 on the river you'd have to have a very marginal hand to consider folding.

Re: Where should I go for spring break 2006?

I'd recommend Germany. You can get wasted on as much good german beer as you like while partying with crazy germans and german girls are very hot. I can't imagine it being hard to find drugs either.

Re: KK, when to let it go

I do think it's possible to get called by a worse hand. I'm not assuming necessarily that my opponent plays "halfway decent." But my full assesment of the situation is going to depend on any reads.

I don't think the preflop cold call is that bad at all. SSH recomends cold calling KQs from early position, I'm assuming this means sometimes before there are even 2 people in. however, depending on...

Re: KK, when to let it go

the flop raise if for value. folding the flop would be pretty bad. we have no reason to assume we're drawing to 2 outs here, that's not an accurate assesment.

Re: KK, when to let it go

cap preflop and raise the flop.
given your play, bad fold on the river, you definitely need to show this down.
