Re: Three hands vs. same player, Super Monday

Why no turn bet? If he likes his hand this is the time to get some money in! I'm not afraid of JT (yet).
And why not check-call the river and let him bluff? I don't see you getting paid often...

Re: Ooops I missed. Line check?
Why did you even get involved on the flop in this small pot, out of position, with nothing, fairly deep, against a LAG? What the hell do you care about this pot? It has roughly zero chance to win you...

Re: Tourney hand

You're risking 30k to win at most 7500, but the all in fellow probably has you beat a little bit (20% or so) of the time, so let's say if everyone folds your...

Re: 2/4, J8s trips on flop, my plan fails
What were you doing not potting the flop if you've been potting every hand up until then? If they have an overpair you want this pot to get big fast so you can get their stack in the middle. Lead the...

Re: 5/10 NL 6Max....Is this chip spewing?
The fun with gross overbets is that, if you have it, it only neets to get called like 1/10 of the time (for a 10x pot bet) to be better than a pot sized value bet (that mostly always gets called)....
