It depends on your read of MP, completely.

I think he'll probably call with any J, will probably call with something like A9, and I think he'll fold a straight draw.

6.5: Make a play for it and hope?
The blinds just went up from 100/200 to 200/400. I'm lucky to get to see a flop, and lucky-ish to flop a pair. The pot is the same size as my stack, and the first player has checked. If I fold...

What do you describe as 'really, really loose'? I'm not sure this is a push myself - it's probably not an awful one, but far from one I'd be thrilled at making.. and have you taken account...

6.5: Sanity Check--Should I really push here?
My SNGPT calcs are showing this as a push against lots and lots of ranges. My instincts tell me to fold it. I'd like your opinion. This is one of those "They're all playing really badly but...

6.5: Check the turn with my overpair?
I was scared of the Ace, of course, but I don't like givine a free card if he's on some kind of draw. Maybe I should pop in a 300 bet (folding to a raise of course) here and try to check down the...

Re: 11: Should I push here?
Yes, I posted it b/c the profitability of this push seems completely dependent on my read of the players behind. If I put them all on 10%(55+,ATo+,A8s+,KQs), it's just barely above break-even. If...

If he has a full house, all of your chips will be in the middle by the end anyway, either checking/betting/pushing, so who cares?

Should I bet bigger on the flop? I'd like some action on my straight. Push the turn? Or is it all reasonable?

How often is this an Ace?
Villain is tight and hasn't gotten out of line. In general, this table is tight-passive, but Villain hasn't played enough hands yet for me to have an opinion on whether he's passive or aggressive...

This hand raised something that has really been bothering me.
I've only been at this table for about 4 hands, and I have no read on villain. My flop raise could well be incorrect, but I think it's...

So I guess you have about 830 chips. Whether or not to push it depends totally on your read of the BB. If you think he'll only call with Ax or stuff like KQ, QJs, then it's a fine push. ...

This is a Party $11. I've just moved from Stars and I'm getting killed at the Party $11s. I think it's because the players are looser about calling all-in, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I...
