Re: Pocket TT - What to do on River
I honestly think a straight is pretty unlikely. Like @bsolute said, there just aren't that many hands that play the flop and turn that way that now have the straight. Would AK have limped preflop? ...

Re: Pocket TT - What to do on River
You have to bet this river. Villain will often have only two pair or even just top pair and will pay off every single time. If villain raises, I call hoping he's getting out of line with something...

Re: 77 in CO 1st hand
You have to admit that we're not going to be real comfortable pumping this when a 7 comes on the turn, right?

Re: Correction:
Yeah I still call. You can't fear a boat every time the board is paired. Most of the time trips aren't even out, let alone a boat. I actually do think we'll usually take this down (or chop) if an...

Re: 77 in CO 1st hand
Hero had posted, so he got to see the flop for half-price. This is a very easy, routine call preflop. (In some situations, you might 3-bet to isolate the LAG, but with limpers already in this...

Re: Nut flush draw on a paired board
When the board is paired, you want a little more overlay than usual. But you've got that here.
On the flop, you only need two callers (normally) for bets/raises to be for value. With four...

Re: 77 in CO 1st hand
I fold the flop. Even if my sevens are good now (which is questionable), they probably won't be by the river and it's going to cost me several extra bets to find out.
If it had been checked to...

Re: Nut flush draw on a paired board
Bet the flop. First of all, your bet is for value. That's the main thing. As a side benefit, it will often get you a free card on the more expensive street, which you should take since the board...

There's no way he's calling with JJ or TT if you bet.

Re: full ring vs. 6-max
I've been playing 6max for about the last 6 months at the .5/1 and 1/2 levels. I'm seriously considering moving back to full ring. Part of that is frustration stemming from a ~300bb downswing over...

Re: Blind Defense w 99
If your read is that he may be taking shots at you, I would just call this down. I'm not sure I could be totally confident in raise/folding the turn given that read.

Re: Value bet vs induce bluff
Bet/call obviously sucks. You are crushed by anything that raises the river, so that line is out.
The problem with check/call is that when villain bets this river, he is not bluffing. There...
