Re: How much action? With context
I don't think the fact that you owned his ass in the prior hand has much bearing on this hand where you have a really sick hand. I suppose you posted this cause he had AA or AK? I have found myself...

Program that hides your chip count
A while back I read about a program that puts a black bar over your chip count while playing online. Does anyone have a link to this? Did a search, but to no avail. Thanks.

Re: AK no good?
Looks like a set to me or a big flush draw on the flop. I might bet/fold the turn. If he has the A /images/graemlins/spade.gif he might semi-bluff raise your turn bet and you might end up folding the...

Re: Another riverdecision
I like the check-fold, cause it looks like you are beat the whole way. But I wouldn't play it this way. Villain's flop bet may mean a bigger PP than yours or a flush draw. The A...

Re: Do I have to bet this turn?
If I was sitting in your place, I would bet it, but wouldn't feel all that positive about it. If BB has QT, you are toast. If BB has A /images/graemlins/heart.gifX /images/graemlins/heart.gif, you...

Re: 88 flop decision
Here I 3-bet pf to get the BB outta there. Just calling doesn't force BB into making a mistake. He's getting great odds and has position on you when you call. I don't like "mixing it up" with 88 in...

Re: Could I be in an uglier spot with an overpair?
now I would check it for fear of a check-raise. If AA/QQ/JJ/TT are out there, they are afraid you have AK or a higher set but are calling in hopes of filling up or holding up at showdown (when you...

Re: Turn
I like a checkraise better on the turn. Since BB is aggro, a nice checkraise should settle him down a bit. I like to make strong plays like this to send a message to the aggro player not to be...

Re: buy in for loose games vs tight games.
I'll sit down with 30BB's in this kind of game, sometimes more. I hate getting short stacked wondering if and when I'm going to want to buy more chips. Anyway, it's not really important in a limit...

Re: Tough river decision
I would even check the river here, seeing as you didn't bet/fold the turn (one way to play it). But I like the check behind, cause you could hit a K on the river and get lucky. If he has the K or 8...

Re: I screwed this one up.. BB Defense with 88
I like the 3-bet pf play, because if UTG has a really strong hand, like QQ+, he will cap it. With AKo he might cap it and with worse he will call. The hand plays a bit differently then because you...

Re: It just keeps getting worse and worse...
I like the river fold. You have been representing a K the whole time (and potentially a FH once the board pairs on the turn). Even if SB is aggressive, he would check if he had Ax, because the Ace...

Re: Two live hands
Hand 1 I cap it preflop and raise the flop. Folding is too weak. Hand 2 I don't know. I would have 3 bet it preflop and then bet out on the flop. Hand plays differently once you 3-bet preflop.

Re: Loose river call?
I would call it since villain may have put you on a flush draw and didn't want his pair checked through. Or he's got a 4. Call and hope to take it down.

Re: safe fold here?
I don't think I could fold that one, but it does look like a set. It could be other things that you are ahead of like T9 /images/graemlins/club.gif or somesuch hand. With all that money in the pot I...

Re: T6s in the BB
fold preflop, but since you didn't, fold the flop, but since you didn't, check/fold the turn.
