Re: Wsop question
ok, so what about this: what if that one extra person they added picked up pocket aces on his very first hand and the rest of the table went all-in? Should he call?

Can this pot be won?
You're playing against a passive and predictable opponent.
He limps UTG and you raise 4x in MP with TT. Folded to him and he calls.
Flop comes down Q22 rainbow. Checked to you. You bet 2/3 pot...

Results
I figured I'm getting 7.5 to 1 on what I considered to be a 10 to 1 shot. In general I would fold this. But I thought 1) my Q outs were clean and I'd get paid off if I hit.
2) if nothing good came...

Re: Call or fold? Is this a close decision?
So right now we have one poster saying I should definitely call and possibly raise.
One who says probably call though he would have folded pre-flop.
And one who says it's a pretty clear fold.

Re: Call or fold? Is this a close decision?
One question I had on your post from this morning: I'm in the BB. I get how the raise could clear off some of my outs but, how will a check raise net me a free card on the turn? Whoever is still in...

Re: nuts in my stomach
Why do you spend so much time in your post justifying how others at the table view you? You're playing this hand against your buddy. I don't think he sees you as a rock despite what cards the last...

Re: So i took a shot at 3/6
Also I'd recommend at least 150 to sit with. I really like having at least 25xBB on the limit I'm sitting at. Granted the max you can lose on any one hand is $72 (or 12BB), I still feel a lot more...

Call or fold? Is this a close decision?
Personally I think it is. It's a hand I played sometime last week that I've been thinking about.

Re: Worst beat I\'ve witnessed in HL, NL
people keep thinking this is in terms of percentages.
