Re: A flop decision that I found interesting

I don't think a...

This whole thread should have been one post with NO RESPONSE. The options are:

I was having a similar run recently also Rocky. I posted here and got some great responses, just a recalibration of what I already knew but had gotten away from. One of the best posts I've seen on...

Re: Help me break my addiction...
Something I read recently was by Dan Harrington on this topic. Your options are to raise 3.5x or to limp and hope to get action behind you. What Harrington does to vary his play is he uses a random...

Re: Multi Table struggles
Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it. I totally agree that I need to start playing position/situation more than my cards after the initial stages.
I hope to get some more input on this...

Re: 30+3 Hand
I don't like this play as I hate getting it in when I know I'm behind. I understand you are putting max pressure on him by putting him all in, but with this board and his preflop raise, it's a high...

Re: Mid pair in SB facing big stack raise
You don't want to be putting in $700 here and seeing a flop. Unless you hit a set, it's gonna be tough to win it being out of position. You can't handle any heat at all.
In this spot, I would...

Re: Is this an easy call?
I have a few thoughts on this one.....
I think the other posters are right, that making it about $1600 to go sounds about right, but they are probably going to call that if they called $1200, so...

I agree that you don't have to vary your play as much on line. Just trying to give a reason why he may have made this play. I play cash games almost exclusively live so I had my "bricks and morter"...

Re: Interesting turn C/R
Interesting play obviously. I don't mind not three betting here. I think it's easier to say "three bet it" when you know the outcome of the hand. Obviously you are calling on the river regardless. ...
