Re: Tricky KK hand

It's not really a tricky hand. I raise to t150 instead, and if an A flops, proceed with caution. If a K flops, I am getting my chips in everytime, 3-suited flop or no. No tricks about...

Tricky KK hand

I consider this hand 'tricky' because its right on the 'push fold' border stackwise, but I _crave_ action with KK (right).

So, I make a raise for _exactly_ 40% of my chips, again right on my...

Re: Easy push, right?

Its probably a hole in my game, but I always push AK on the bubble, unless there is a MICRO stack UTG.

Re: I autopush this, would u play it different, if so why?

Well, heres my reasoning on this. This might be a big leak in my play.

Extracting maximum value from big hand. Review please

Ok. I got pushed down a little in chips early when my QQ did not hold up against A4o push from shortstack. :-)

Too aggressive? Push QQ from button into a bunch of limpers

I played this hand today. Table has been rather tight and lots of minraise, 1bet fold no flop crap. So, I have a good chip stack and pick up QQ on the button. Yum, yum, say I. To my horror, all but...

By the way, not a big fan of the limp-reraise all-in with the pot this small. If you're going to make this play, wait until the blinds are higher or something so it's worth doing.
