I think it benefits all if posters stay away from definitive statements if they are not experts/near-experts.

Time Pots
I'm contemplating moving up in limits for my next visit to Vegas and LA (June). I've never played in LA. I normally play the Bellagio 15-30 and Mirage 20-40 (though the 20-40 was years ago). I...

Great fold or horrible fold?
Party 15-30: I have K /images/graemlins/spade.gif5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif in the BB. 3 limpers, button raises. SB folds, the rest call.
Not much on the button - seems a little loose.

Re: Mirage 20-40: Play This Hand Against Me
Hello Dynasty,
I would take the Jim Brier line on this one:
I would fold. If I'm ahead with JJ there are a lot of cards that could make the loose player's hand or your hand on the river. And it...

Re: 75-150 hand
In that case, a player who 3-bets a reasonable UTG with A5s could have anything here. 98s, AA who knows.
I'd use the 4-bettor as leverage to pry out UTG. In this case, getting him to call 2 SB's...

i.e does his 4-bet range of hands include AJ, 44 type hands. If so I think the best way to...

I agree with Astroglide sans the negativity.
On the River, assuming you don't call a 3-bet, you're not risking 2 bets to win 1 as you state because you're going to call 1 bet no matter what. So...
