Re: 50/100 3 handed

Your hand is too strong to fold in a SB/BB war. I like calling then raising any river other than A, J or T. Whether you raise the river if a 6, 7 or 8 hits depends on your play style and the image...

Re: I Knew What You Had

Re: bellagio $1.5/3

Yes Yes, the Name and Avatar hint at your potential, but your first effort sucks. Take a few days away from the computer. Clear your mind. Then give it another go.

Re: TT 15-30

Normally I would call down. The caller hasn't showed any agression. Its the Mr. Smiley part that has me thinking its a fold.

Re: TT 15-30

Two overcards, a bet and a call, mr. smiley. Seems like a safe fold to me.

Re: A dubious flop reraise

You are definately in a marginal spot, but I like your reasoning and what I think is your plan to lead any turn intending for that to be the last money you put into the pot. Please correct me if I...

Re: Laydown that I regret

Must...not...raise...fold.

Here is my order of preference.

1. Call
2. Fold (very distant second imo)
3. Raise/Call
4. Raise/Fold

If you specify the stack sizes relative to the blinds, you...

Re: finally played a hand well?

I don't understand why you posted this hand Mike. Looks to me like you made a read based fold in a smallish pot heads up.

Re: $20/40 7-6s

IMO pre-flop call is bad and the flop raise is even worse. Yes its a big draw, but its still a draw. I see no reason to charge myself double and knock people out to boot.

The river is close, but...
