Re: bet or check flopped set?
I've got 1 more card to pair the board and there's 6 BB's in the pot. Button comes alive on the turn, with 4 clubs on the board. Is this really a *clear-cut* fold? It seems like a coinflip to me. ...

Re: bet or check flopped set?
Bet.
Turn comes low /images/graemlins/club.gif
BB checks, Hero bets, Button Raises.
BB folds, Hero folds.
Boo. Hiss. Poor hero play. Lesson learned - a set is not worthy of slowplay.

bet or check flopped set?
Don't have HH yet, mostly wondering about how I treated the flop - check through for slowplay or bet out to protect against the flush?
PP .50/1
Hero is UTG +1 with 99

Re: KK hand, Ace on the flop
This is an interesting hand. I would likely have raised the flop, but I see now why that is wrong.
Do you fold if he raises your river bet?

Re: K9o from BB
I didn't put MP2 on trip 8's because he didn't cap the flop.
SB wouldn't go away, but showed no aggression, so he could have any 2 cards.
Without any pre-flop aggression, I didn't fear an...

K9o from BB
Comments? No sig reads, SB appears pretty passive fishy. Too few hands with MP2 to tell.

Re: When to surrender overpair?
This looks like a good fold. You've got a good read on the BB and his likely trips.
That being said, it'll cost you a BB to see the river and, since you have position, you can get away if you...

Re: AQo in big blind
you took your free card on the turn and didn't improve, fold the river.
I think if you bet the turn, you'll fold SB and his pair of J's. You've represented strength on every street. Unless he...

Re: KTs preflop question
I'd see a flop here, but I'm always leery of that much aggression coming out of the BB. You're trapped between the preflop raiser & re-raiser so your position is not good. Unless the flop hits you...

Re: C/R Turn after having Flop C/R 3bet?
Bang him with another C/R - he'll likely see your check as a sign of weakness, since you slowed up on the turn, and come back at you with his pocket J's.
The board shows a poss. straight, but...

Re: River Action?
I think TT's right, I like CO for a set here, meaning that your CR should pay off. If you bet out you'll get a call.
I'd have check-called the turn and likely check-folded a scare card on the...

Re: Put UTG on a hand --- big prize!
UTG shows A9, your hand is no g00t.
I don't think you're on tilt here at all...Ram & Jam, baby.

Re: QQ critique pls...
UTG shows AA
UTG+1 shows J9d for trip 9's
CO shows KK
Hero feels very small. When playing QQ in the future, keep in mind that these are the starting hands you do *not* want to see.

Re: Tough river decision (I think)
Call it what you will, but I think that river raises in this position (especially after 2 checks to you) are often viewed as bluffs. As such, you get a surprising number of calls from worse hands. ...
