Re: KQ takes free card?
Easy bet/fold on this river. With both a flush and a straight possible, villian isn't raising anything that doesn't beat you, and he might not even raise with Tx.

Re: Hat trick on the turn
I'm having a hard time envisioning what a "just so" board means in this case. In your example, you say "the board pairs the 3" in which case fish are highly unlikely to fold if they have any pair,...

Re: Did I miss a protection raise on the turn?
Bet the flop.
3-bet the turn. MP and CO have odds to call a single bet with as little as 2 overs. You're ahead much of the time, and you'd really like to buy whatever outs MP and CO have. If...

Re: Good spot to wait until turn to raise?
You must raise PF here. You really want to put pressure on UTG to fold, since AKo plays much better HU than 3-way.
As you played it, you may as well wait till the turn to raise. If either player...

Re: 2/4 Rivered Nut flush... 4bet?

Re: When you don\'t want overcalls.
So after CO's river bet, he's effectively all in and sb can call 2 cold closing the action?
Since he called 3 bets PF, what do you think he's folding that beats you? From my perspective, your...

If you always 3bet/4bet with AA (or KK, etc.) then opponents will know you do not have them when you call, which can be dangerous. At 3/6 there are enough thinking players at a given...

Re: Maybe I fold Too Much
