Re: Does preflop even matter at all??

In summary: you are a 40/20 LAG making 1 BB/100.

If you play well post-flop, this is believable at Party 5/10 6max. So this is not particularly interesting really. And if you can manage 1...

Re: What is the best poker forum?

Re: Minor point, but does 23o play worse than 27o thus making it worse

Re: NL 50, Set of 9s, Turn 3-flush

Thanks again for all the comments, I'm gonna to think about this hand some more.

Re: NL 50, Set of 9s, Turn 3-flush

By the way, I'll admit that I probably should've made more noise on the flop, but FWIW I was fairly confident he would make another pot-sized bet on the turn almost regardless of what card fell.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Results: he took a long time, asked me if I had a flush, then folded.

My thinking was similar to Petteri's. I figure he has overs and may or may not have the...

Re: How do you beat the 25NL PP game?

Overbetting a set when you think your opponent has top pair is often a good way to make money in this game. Though obviously it would've backfired in this particular case.

Re: AQs

I don't really understand this line. It seems like his turn check says he has a missed draw or a weak ace. Is he very likely to bet either one? He can't put a very high probability of you folding...
