Re: When a flop bet comes from your right....

I appreciate the help, guys.

So, in sum, when a flop bet comes from my right when I have an overpair, I wait for the turn to raise only if
1) the pot is big
2) at least two players to act after...

Re: 77: 9-high flop vs. PFR

If MP1 is an aggressive player, he might raise you on the flop regardless of almost any holding. If this is the case, your flop bet would force MP2 and the Button to cold call two on the flop, which...

When a flop bet comes from your right....

Still trying to apply SSHE, i.e., protecting strong hands on draw heavy boards on the turn, rather than on the flop.

How far out is my ass on this line?


UTG1 is 34/0 over 20 hands.
MP2 is...

Re: AK reraised and misses --- Tell me how to analyze this hand

"Also, how did you get 3 outs??"


I figured general reraising hands were AA, KK, QQ and AKs.

I was only ahead against QQ, and split with AK.

Didn't know the process you used, so just...

Re: I suck and I\'m a pussy (and I\'m an idiot)

Interesting hand.

For what it's worth, I question the fold on the river too.

The passive button may be making a play on the over aggressive MP1. Just because he's super loose doesn't mean...

Re: How much credit do I have to give this guy?

You know, I went back and checked his numbers.....I only had stats on him for about 10 hands, not 30.

When do you start determining your play based upon stats?

Re: How much credit do I have to give this guy?

Just used to so much bad play on party 3/6 that I thought the guy was overplaying AK.

Agreed-- the reraise was pushing too far.

The dude turned over a very well played QQ.

Thanks-

Re: Hand from a live game. Please advise.

Hope you stayed at the table long enough to make it all back and then some.

Did maniac reraise the flop? Did the other players stay in for the turn?

Re: Hand from a live game. Please advise.

Hey Purnell-

Wirh the maniac in back of you, who might reraise, I think the fold's pretty easy.

Especially with the bottom end of the straight. I would probably be tempted to call if I had A7...

Re: QJs in the small blind

I don't think you can safely try a check raise on the flop.

With no preflop raises, you have no idea where a flop bet will come from. Bet comes from UTG -- what do you do next?

Standard play against preflop raiser?

Hey there-

I think my play was pretty standard, but I'm eager to be told my ass is out of line.

No reads on the table. No notes on anybody.
