Re: Who gonna call you?
I agree with most of what you said. I donīt think you can fold because the pot is to big and I think you will have the best hand here a good enough % of the time assuming UTG and UTG+1 are loose...

I would even fold KK after someone opened I reraised and he then moves in and we are both pretty deep. That is I should lay down KK in those situations cause every time the guy has AA. QQ should be...

I don't necceseraly think that reraising preflop is bad, cutoff has shown weakness by just limping after the poster, buttons min raise doesn't look like a very strong hand either,I think he has...

Re: I chicken out on the river
The read on the players was that she is weak but not a calling station so I'm guessing she would have folded a T by now and even if she wouldn't she would probably fold now that the flush got there....

Re: Who calls here?
I think your opponent had 2 pair or a set on the flop and filled up on the turn or even the river if he had K3 or maybe he made a straight with 5h6h, Ah5h.
Itīs also possible he is being tricky and...

Re: Dumping KK on a rag flop
I would put MP on AA or maybe KK,QQ and I would think the button has JJ-AA as well. It would help if you had a read though since I have seen some crazy sh!t when I have played. I wouldn't be shocked...

Re: Too Aggresive?
I don't think you overplayed it. Sure he could have JT or a set but he could also have A9, A8, 8h9h or even AK and you are getting 2,5:1 on your money. I don't really think you can get away from this...

Re: How come I cant pull the trigger on the river?
When I flop a flush and someone bets into me I usually raise. This is how I might play with the Kc an Ace or set so it will be harder to put me on the flush and if my opponent has a hand like a set 2...

Re: Party 600 NL AK hand
So opponent could have AQ, 55, KJs, JTs, KQs, what about KTs? You are about a 3:1 dog to have the best hand and you won't win any more money when you do so checking looks right to me.
So do you...

I think you are giving away too much information overbetting the flop, if you had AQo or 99 here would you really bet 15$ or will you only do it when you have TPTK or better?

Re: What mistakes did I make here?
I raise or fold preflop completely depending on UTG, Itīs usually a raise unless he is very tight-passive.
I play it the same on flop.
I donīt think you can give up for 1 bet on the turn, if he...

Re: Live hand #2: Turned top two pair
My point was that he wouldnīt call a turn check-raise with anything you could beat, so it would be safe to check-fold the river. The reason you raise is to protect against being bluffed out of the...

Re: Live hand #2: Turned top two pair
