Re: Follow up bets
The smaller the buyin the bigger the cb needs to be. As a side note try checking the flop when it misses you (and of course when it hits you) and make a move on the turn. Very
few people do this,...

Re: what would you do in this situation?
I would fold BTF.
Your call doesn't complete the action. You're not desperate
yet, and you have multiple players to act behind you with
a medium holding at best.
The worst case scenario, a...

Now of course I'm speculating without any knowlege of any

Re: Hand from Bellagion 5 Diamond
There is a very fine line between brilliance and stupidity.
I'm certainly not inferring that you're stupid.
But based on your dialogue with JJ during the night
what in the world do you think...

Re: Joe Cassidy sick call
Without knowing the betting leading up to the river, the size
of the reraise suggest either a really big hand or a bluff.
I think if the bluffer made a much bigger bet he may have
picked up the...

Re: HOH II Problem 9-3 (p 177)
Whether this is correct or not I'm not real sure.
But I'll tell you one thing, if you have ever watched Dan
play, he ain't pushing with this in a real life situation.

Thanks for the posts. Much obliged.
Hand 1 Freddie can have anything. The tourny is very deepstacked and he wound up in the pot on the installment plan. Given his loose reputation putting him...

Re: $215 Custer hand #2 - AKo whiffs v 2
HOH is a blockbuster seller per Amazon. I have no idea how

Re: $215 Custer hand #2 - AKo whiffs v 2
I couldn't have said it any better myself, but I'm not a Dukey.
With the release of HOH everyone now knows what a cbet is. Observant players will pick off small cbet's with air all day long. ...

Re: Tough Turn Decision
I agree. This was a poor turn bet. Too great a chance that
hero is drawing skinny. Why bet when you can see a free turn card and the likelyhood of semibluffing the turn is low?

Re: strange raise sizes (LC)
I'll do this frequently also. Good point.
The fact that there's a post about this suggests that
players wonder what's up with this.

There aren't too many spots that come to my mind, but I just

Re: Am I a donkey?
I think too many players put their opponents on a hand by the size of a raise or reraise. I think this is a big leak.
Good players mix their raises.

Re: Am I a donkey?
You have along way to the final table. How many players were left?
When you're reraised by a sane opponenet let's assume his range is JJ to AA and AK. We might be able to add AQ and 99

Re: Case of checking AK is good?
I'd raise virtually every time. You have the best hand, albeit the worst position. You'll flop something a large percentage of the time so you'll win a bigger pot in general. Just don't marry AKs....
