Re: Flopped bottom set 5-way
Thanks all, for your replies. If I had it all to do again, I would have led out on the flop with a half-pottish bet, and depending on action, would have pot-bet or overbet on the turn.
I raised...

Re: real simple question. Why play 6 handed?
Hi Mike,
The two things you learn real quick around here are not to claim to be able to perform extraordinary feats of poker with small sample sizes, and to not complain about tight play on Party...

Re: Agonizing decision:
I guessed "Push" and then crunched the numbers, and by my mongoloid math, it came to $42.13 Push vs. $41.79 Fold, assuming he's equal to or a little worse than you. So, perhaps that's why it was an...

Re: A Couple of Basic Pre-Flop Hands
Strong agree. Hand #1, push. Hand #2, fold. The arguments have been outlined well already, just moderating-up what I think is the correct action. It's the wrong time to overvalue baby pairs with...

Re: Is this cheating?
I have emailed Party support about collusion in the same circumstance as the original poster. I was all-in, one of the players had bet into a tiny sidepot, and the third player wanted to know whether...

Re: Need help with the party $20 SNGs
One of the problems I've just noticed with my own game on the Party $20's is how often I get down to 2 or 3 blinds with three to six people left, when I'm forced to go all-in with any high card trash...

Re: Two hands from my last SNG
On the second hand, I think your mistake was in not going all-in pre-flop. Being all-in has a lot of advantages in this situation. For starters, of the hands that might call you, liberally...

Re: Two hands from my last SNG
I agree with Mr. Chill that calling here was a mistake. You had very little in this pot, and not a lot of expectation that there would eventually be a lot in the pot to be won. With a couple of...

Interesting, and exactly the sort of constructive perspective I was looking for: a quantification of the gut-feeling. Thanks for adding some value to the forum.

Of course not. How many questionable plays have you ever made that ended well, that you decided not to question? The fact that it didn't end well was what called my attention to whether it may or...

Thanks for taking the time to reply, but I didn't get a lot of value from your response. I'm guessing what you meant was that it's always better pushing in, despite having a large stack advantage...

Re: Could I have avoided busting?
If you had checked the turn, and he had gone all-in, what would you have done?
Or, if he's the type that's always happier looking you up... what would have happened if you'd put in a smallish...
