Re: poker play during finals week????
I uninstall my poker software from my computer during finals week. There's nothing more depressing than having a losing session when you were supposed to be studying.

Ok, I am a mid-stakes NL player (1/2-3/6) and I play full tables. I am trying to broaden my game and have recently started playing shorthanded limit. I've started out at 2/4 and 3/6 and am properly...

Re: $200nl - Ughhhhhhhhhhhhh
3 bet the flop. Lots of scary cards on the turn can come out, and this flop easily gives villian a second best hand he could give you a lot of action with.
As is, call river. He could very well...

Re: set on a supa-coordinated flop, deep
Given read on villian, I have no problem getting it all-in on the river in hand #1, on hand #2 I agree with how you played it, I definitley raise here with stacks this deep. You have the nuts, looks...

Re: button vs blind I\'m torn
If villian is tight as you say, I think I fold this. I can't figure out how he possibly got there, but it looks to me like he stayed in on some sort of draw and backdoored a flush. Hmmm, maybe he...

Re: Made my hand, fold again?
PF and flop are fine, although I think I prefer a raise PF in position.
Fold turn. There aren't many river cards you can like, and villian has taken initiative. He's pricing you out of your draw...

Re: 3/6 QQ 3 handed vs wild one
Fold flop. Wait for a better spot, this flop is just terrible for you. River push looks like a missed draw, I'd expect this villian to look you up with as little as a pair of aces, so I'd only make...

Re: 1/2 nl live QQ feeling pressure
Unless he calls here with king high I don't like it. You just made his hand extremely easy to play, if he has you beat he calls, if not he folds. I guess he could still pay you off with lower pp,...

Re: Does a tiny baiting river bet ever work?
You'd have to be against a pretty aggressive opponent for this to work. I think much more often someone will look you up with a weak hand, hoping to catch you bluffing.
In situations like you...

Re: Semi-Deep JJ Top Set
Given his range, figure out how to get his stack in after the flop. I'd say you managed the pot size well, maybe raise a little more on the flop. I would also consider betting more on the turn. He...

Raising in the first place would have been better. Fortunately you have a chance to rectify the situation, make about a pot-sized raise. Both opponents look weak so far, I imagine you'll take it...

Re: Thin Value Bet?: NL $400
I doubt you can make much here, I'd bet $60 again and hope to get someone to look you up with a pretty weak hand. If you do happen to get cr'ed (unlikely) I'd lay it down.
