Re: what does WA/WB mean?
way ahead way behind.
An example is you raise with AT and someone 3bets, you call. The flop has an A in it. Since you are way ahead of KK QQ, but way behind AK or AQ, you let him fire away...

Re: AQo, monotone flop. What
I like the call down line. Remember the board looks just as scary to those guys, so their action represents strength. Raising doesn't seem to achieve anything, as you probably aren't ahead more then...

Re: So this girl comes to me for emotional support
She seems to be asking for advice with words, but in reality she is seeking validation through you perhaps, and doesn't care about your advice. She is in an emotionally weak state and is attempting...

Re: Sklansky\'s advice works
Alright. Here is my take on this whole deal.
There seems to be many separate goals with this situation. One is to get into this girls pants (aka win the Sklansky bet). The second goal is to...

Re: Discuss options on turn please
It would appear the co has some overcards here, most likely the ace. We could bet, call the raise and fold the river UI. Check, but then he may check behind some undercards like K J. That would...

Re: Turned straight being 3-bet
Yea, jjq is the type of flop that makes a boat all the more likely. I'd call down, expecting to win a good chunk of the time, but not 50%.

Re: 2/4 KK
I think one possibility is playing this like a straight up gutshot draw. The flop is a free card raise. Take the free card on the turn maybe?? I don't know.
If you think you are behind, you...

Re: Flop with OK & FD4 - call or raise?
I think the only problem with your line Marlowe (this is just my two cents, I don't even know if I'm right) is that the pot just isn't that big yet. Freeing up two outs just isn't worth it given the...

Re: can I fold please?
The waiting for the turn line requires several things. First, big pot. You have this. Second, your raise cannot protect your hand very well. You more or less have this. Third, a significant...

Re: Turn check-raise w/ overcards. Standard?
If the turn was a blank, the problem here is with two cards in the playing zone(T and 9) two pair or better is much more likely than in the clarkmeister example ( Q 5 6). He also had backdoor...

Re: Q8s blind steal
Ok the tags preflop 3-bet is probably legit since the sb already called your steal raise. So, My current philosophy when a solid player 3-bets is don't f with them. Now we have a bet and raise on...

Re: When to fold in this large pot?
I believe if you read the 3-bet pre-flop section in HPFAP, it recommends calling down when a good flop comes when a preflop 3 bettor bets on the flop. This is because you want to encourage him to...

Overpair on scary board
Here is a hand I had yesterday. My logic on the flop here was with the dangerous draws out there, I'd call the flop and bet a blank on the turn(fold to a turn raise). With the A falling, I figured...

Re: A-10s- Top pair how is my line?
It wasn't just a raise for info(value too) but I think I'm converted to the call and wait for the turn to raise, due to the overcards, straight and flush cards that could ruin this. So now...

Re: A-10s- Top pair how is my line?
I guess with the limpers the preflop call was ok... but I probably would have folded. Anyway, I would 3-bet the flop. I want to know now if I am good or not, this looks like sb is doing a hand...
