Re: JJ
I did fold it and he took the blinds. That decision didn't sit well for me that's why I posted. My friend first said push then I convinced him folding was not so bad. I needed to find outside...

Re: JJ
I like the quote and your advice. I have him covered by 30K. I see that pushing against AK would be just fine. If i win i have huge chips, if i lose i am still in contention. Do you personaly...

Re: JJ
I almost never coin flip if I dont have to. My stack being this size means that I dont have to, so pushing in preflop is not an option for me. Maybe that is something I need to fix. So nobody...

Re: JJ
The raise is pretty big. I would call 10K and decide on flop what to do. I just dont want to pay 15K and get trapped on a 9 high flop. I'm just wondering if any good players consider folding. I...

Re: too passive?
10/20 isn't huge stakes, but I'm pretty sure it's not micro limit. I wanted to protect my hand the best I could and I figure raising on the turn would do that better than raising on the flop. Why...

Re: 55 SB
I wouldn't have hit my set. The flop came middle cards which the BB had a piece of and the button caught an Ace on turn. Besides, it doesn't matter whether I woulda hit it or not.

Live 10/20. On the looser side. There are two or three players that will cold call a raise with marginal hands at best. UTG is a local pro.

Re: Take the free card?
This is a live 10/20 game. The villian is a player I have played with many times. He very rarely makes plays. His bet into my raise tells me that he has my KK beat. Even with a draw say 9-10 with...

Re: 55 MP
This is a live 10/20 game. I considered folding but this is a well know maniac and the table is pretty loose. Getting 7 callers to the flop is pretty lucky, but I expected around 4.

Re: 55 MP
He'll stay to the end with any kind of a draw and bet/raise the good draws i.e. flush, open ender. If he completely misses he would fold especially to my bet.

I figure the button will fold anything from K-9 or worse and raise me with two pair. Also, I doubt he would chase two pair past the turn so I put him on JQ. There is a small chance he is calling me...
