Ex. 1 Meh... I don't know. I probably fold OOP here for quite a bit of my stack, or maybe push back if the guy's a moron.

Ex. 2 Dumb. When it gets to you, I push/fold, probably push, depending on how much Villain sucks at poker.

Ex. 3 Don't slowplay Jacks... Jesus, awful. Just push preflop, and take down almost 1/3 of your stack.

Ex 1

Villain raised 3XBB. What kind of reads do you have on his play? If none, then you would have to think he has a big pair, AK or AQ. This means you are either way behind or in a coin flip situation.

You have plenty of chips. Let this hand go and look for a better spot.


Ex 2

Villian's push screams of a small pair. Once again, do you have any reads on him? I can't imagine why he push all of his chips to win a t45 pot. I can't see him pushing with AA, KK, or QQ because he would probably want some action. Therefore, I would put him on a small pair or maybe AK or AQ.

I would probably push my JJ to isolate the villian HU. You are getting 1.1 to 1 pot odds and are either a big favorite to a smaller pair or a slight favorite with AK or AQ.


Ex 3

I would have pushed. I would be perfectly happy if BB folded and I added the t300 to my stack.

1. Read dependent. If I sense villain is raising a lot of junk its a push. If not, its a clear fold.

2. I overpush this 1005 of the time.

3. For the love of all that is holy, please push this.
