Re: 30/60 Bellagio hand from last night
I bet, expecting to be called by a Q or 45s (tricky EP), but not by the cold callers. I call if tricky raises, you can probably safely fold to BB or LP1's raise unless you have a read on them and...

Re: 30/60 Bellagio hand from last night
I'd raise to shut out/charge the draws, he could be donking a Q or he may have hit two pair. I think he'd CR a set or straight here nearly 100% of the time, but may be betting either of those or...

Re: Stupid spot...
It could be my line is being influenced by the results, and as I said it feels awfully weak-tight. But we have no read on the BB, would he 3-bet any ace here and CR the ace on the turn? What about...

It's ok, I putz all the time and misread hands! /images/graemlins/smile.gif
I still think as the hand played out, you are forced to fold barring some solid read on the BB, which is why I question...

Re: annoying hand
I'll say the obvious...fold the turn, it appears your TPTK is no good given the action.

wackjob, I'm a little confused, you want to check this turn in OPs position with the intention of raising it with BB being the aggressor. I'm not sure where you stand on this hand here, as BB is the...

Re: QQ on str draw flop
After re-reading this, I'd agree with the other posters, I had misread the BB's action, was too focused on villian, and raising the turn seems like the obvious play to charge the draw the max and/or...

I believe that it takes a rare person to loose even 1/4 that much in a shot and still be playing their best.
I only ever take 100bb "shots" and move back down. The smaller shots are...

Re: Stupid spot...
I think it depends on BB, I don't think this should be 100% standard.
You don't want to give a diamond a free look, nor do you want to have to call a CR and pay 3BB on the turn and river to...

Re: K8s flops middle pair. Raise or call flop?

Interesting problem and I could see doing it either way.
This is a pretty dry flop except for gutshots. It disturbs me that SB would lead 4-handed and a TAG calls from second seat.

Re: river sexy after turn check/check HU
I don't think a TAG is going to call your river lead with 66 or less, he may bluff at it but chances are he'll fold. He may call a lead with a hand like JJ-88, but not bet them. Beyond that, you...
