Re: I WON!! Help me buy something!!
I've had samples of most of the popular ones, Pharaoh's NCV are my favorite (NCV means there's no $ amount on the chip, just colors & symbols so you could use them for any amount you wanted). Paulson...

Re: the last hand of the session
Open push everytime this situation comes up and show the bluff. Builds up a crazy image and you can exploit it best by.. leaving.
(Yes, this actually happens in SSNL)

Hmm, yeah in retrospect that's what I should have done. Instead I just checked the turn, he bet $1, and I smooth called. River came the ace of spades, and I went all-in (making it look...

Re: Top Set hits a bad board, river?
Raise to $1.50 preflop. 3 or 4x BB + 1BB per limper is standard play. Bet pot or at least 2/3 pot on flop and turn and probably value bet this river for 1/2-2/3 potish folding to a raise, but...

Re: Overpair hands...standard plays?
Good plays IMO - 1st hand you're probably beat, but you're getting a good price so I wouldn't fold this. 2nd hand you're probably ahead more than not, but don't expect to be ahead all the time given...

Re: Losing value or prudence??
You're way ahead IMO, if he even has an ace (unlikely) it's very weak. Being 75/25 I think he'll call a small-ish value bet though with whatever he has (a J? pockets? weak A?). If he c/r you then...

Re: .5/1 AK mega draw
This is definitely a preflop raise 100% of the time and probably a post-flop 3-barrel hand for me. Hit the flop with your usual continuation bet, 1/2-2/3 pot on the turn and something like 1/3-1/2...

The reason you didn't find it too fast in google (assuming you searched) was "pokerace" is one word. url above is correct.

Re: should i move back to $25?
