Re: BU vs. sansone
I think Cryptologic allows or at least did allow, the same nickname to be used repeatedly within the network.
I am quite sure that the original Sansone was a very big fish, but I think there are...

$100/200 preflop decision

Re: red 88...play along with me
Maybe I'm running too good, but I don't think so, but this is a raise I think. I think they eights will win more than it's fair share here.

A very important WAWB concept
...IMHO, is when it's a scoop for you to have your opponent fold in relation to the potsize. This can be anything all the way down to 4 outs, if the the pot is big enough. 6 outs qualifies often. I...

Re: 30-60 party --- folded the winning hand
In a full ringgame, you wouldn't be giving up much by folding 99 before the cutoff versus an UTG raise from an averagely/randomly tight player or tighter.
However, 6-handed, it's a quite clear...

Results and thoughts
I think it's nice this thread picked up, and especially interesting to see all the different opinions on the AJ hand. I guess it's {3bet 50, call 50, fold 0} when I am raised on the turn, {5bet 1,...

A couple more $100/200 hands
This time, 4 and 3 handed respectively. My opponent (the same in both hands) seems like the typical good mid/high-limit player so far.
Hand 1:
Villain openraises on the button, small blind...

Results and some thoughts
Nice responses so far I think, thanks for not being so harsh on me. ;-) As for hand three, I agree that 3-betting the flop w/a view to get to a showdown very often is probably where I went wrong....

Re: Paying people off.
How strong is your opponent? If you are planning to put in a bet on the river, I would try bet-fold.
The turn might be fold, but too would have a hard time doing that. You are very likely playing...

Re: $20/40, those forum regulars: Pocket Sevens.
I know there is a mistake in here somewhere, but can I really raise the turn and fold to a 3-bet? Provided KB folds, I am getting something like 16-to-1 on my last call, and I guess I will be playing...

Good read Daryn. I actually folded for the 3bet. No-one is bluff-raising into this pot, and I couldn't put both on a hand I beat.
The cutoff proceeded to cap. Button called and won with J-To after...
