Re: I value call my nuts?
Overcalls are lovley. And the fact that you might be able to trap a large field for 3 bets is even more lovley.

Re: So many outs...
Well, your certainly not winning this pot by checking. Bet/Fold and hope he was on a draw as well. With 4.5 BB in the pot, this move only has to work 25% of the time to be profitable, however. ...

Re: Do I need to bet to win this pot?
I think this is the classic free showdown situation. If he has something like QT, your winning. But why, oh why, are you trying to bluff a calling station.

Re: i\'m ultra paranoid..
Adjusting to shorthanded play is a bitch. The swings suck. The best philosphy is to keep it simple. Reads are much more important than in full because your going to end up heads up a higher % of...

Re: let it go?
Nope. Not many 'standard' small stakes players will fast play trip kings like this. Most likley holding with Ax/images/graemlins/club.gif. Call the turn and re-eval the river, though, i'm tempted...

Re: AKs HU but UI: Call it down?
i bet/call the flop and reevaluate the turn. I'm tempted to call down with no /images/graemlins/spade.gif on the board, but then again, i'm a fish.

Re: i\'m ultra paranoid..
Super bad laydown, IMHO. Esp. with no reads. He could be C/Ring with anything from AK all the way down to 9T. A8, TT, 99, all will try this. Just payoff here. If he has a Q, make notes. He has...

Re: KJ crappy river
Standard bet/fold. He's not going to bluff raise you with less than the straight, but he will call down a worse J.

Check/calling and bet/folding are the same here. If you bet, he raises, your beat. If you bet, he calls, your beat (most of the time). If you check, he bets, you might be able to induce a bluff. ...

If you only have a $130 roll, you need to move down and do some bonus whoring. 6 max is a bitch for downswings.

Re: too chicken?
Pump dat pot for Christ sakes. With three other people in the pot, your risking one bet when your ahead more than 50% of the time to win 3 BB. I don't slowdown to the river 3 bet.

Re: How long can you run good?
You can a 'good run' can alter your stats over long periods of time, as can a bad run. I know alot of winning players at 5/10 and 10/20 who were 2+ BB/100 winners over 60k hands, and were 1 BB/100...
