Re: WSOP Circuit San Diego tonight
I think C. Brown is a great player...Just curious to know what suggestions anyone might have as to how to play that hand differently. I think the flat call on flop of HTran's bet is reasonable given:...

Re: Bad night at Pokerstars
Hand 4. You missed a turn raise--maybe you're tilting from those difficult beats you took. You could also just have reraised on the river.

Re: Don\'t compound; cut your losses at 1.5BB
Creative yet apparently silly doesn't make the money playing 3/6. You're costing yourself money about 1 in 5 to 1 in 10 times.
Full information? You're not going to get him to show you his cards,...

Re: Don\'t compound; cut your losses at 1.5BB
So there's no confusion, my remarks are focused on the play of this hand from the flop assuming a hypothetical blank turn, not the turn ten (the best poss card for you) which makes seeing hand to the...

Re: Don\'t compound; cut your losses at 1.5BB
You might just call the turn?...that would be creative yet silly poker having made a vulnerable straight with a QT. You know that you would raise this turn 99/100 times. What of charging your...

Re: Don\'t compound; cut your losses at 1.5BB
Why not? You need info to confirm/disconfirm your suspicion that you're already beat. Many, if not most opponents aren't going to continue to raise you with KT, AT, T9, even QJ, KJ in this spot, but...

Re: QJo in EP . TP runs into trouble @ Party 3/6.
Dont read my post. Your hand had me thinking too long, lol. Watch out for UTG he could easily be holding a Q like KQ (one of the reasons I thought your draw was crappy). React to his play rather than...

Don\'t compound; cut your losses at 1.5BB
Based on the action thus far how could you put UTG on a weaker J? JT is the only jack hand i see UTG calling with that puts you ahead. The other jack hands have you outkicked or have made two pair....

Re: Party $2/$4 versus $3/$6
General statements (like stereotypes) can mislead, but these differences are typically visible. 3/6 more aggressive. Definitely tighter, but post-flop people are pushing harder with smaller edges,...

Re: 99 in SB After a Raise and a Call
I like a three bet, then lead out. OR see flop, then let UTG bet and C/R (on this flop). I'm confident I'm good with this flop and confident that UTG will be betting it > C/R. I usually like to be...

Re: Poker Superstars Invitational-money question
TJ never puts up his own money. He's had some entity backing his tournament play for years, you could probably find out who stakes him somewhere on the internet. What led you to believe he's broke?
