I've been at the table no more than 1-2 orbits, and no reads, though none of them have appeared to be bad players.

Re: An AQo Hand...TPTK...

I'd usually bet the flop, turn and river.

Was your intention to check/call on the flop in order to get a raise out of the villain on fourth st? If so, then i quite like it, but surely you'd want...

Not many people I run into will cap the flop with AK after it has been capped pre-flop.

Re: Theoretical Earnings question

the p.a. figure might be a reasonable goal.. but some months you'll be way up, and some months way down i'm sure.

Re: Are the peaks and valleys this gut-wrenching???

savour the feeling.. after your 20th peak and 20th valley, you'll barely notice the swings.. just your mistakes.

Re: Stud v. Holdem

7card, by its nature, has more variance, so make sure your bankroll is bigger than you would have for a limit holdem game.

I also find people know less about stud than holdem, so you tend to get...

Re: Another Big Slick, am I taking these too far....

I'd fold the turn in that exact situation.

I'd rather bet out on the turn, and fold to a raise tho.

nothing wrong with PF or on the flop imho.

Bottom line: poor position, small pot, 2 clean...

Re: KJs checkup

I'd only like to raise this flop if I a better holding than KJs. You're a big dog to any Ace on that flop.

Everything else is fine.

Re: Can I get away from this hand?

i probably wouldnt 3-bet the flop. BB has already called 2 cold, so he aint going anywhere. You've only 8 outs to the nuts, and two of those (9h and Ah), could give someone else the flush (BB in...

Re: protecting your hand, by getting your opponent to raise.

its a well known tactic.. just as that raiser will be hoping you bet, so he can raise and force the other out of the pot too.

You need to give you players a lot of credit for this to be reliable.....

Re: Is this an easy fold

turn: would either call or raise.

river: would call most of the time.. possibly fold if i had a good read on the player.. or if there are several players paying to see the showdown.

Re: Pocket 5s

nope.. the small pot is along enough to make me lay down, the low implied odds again reinforces my instincts to throw it away, and being out of position just makes it easier to fold.

I'd have to...

Re: Pocket 5s

PF: tip-top. the profit you can make from these hands is amazing when you hit them in small stakes, although i throw them away some of the time in real early position.

flop: You've got one bettor...

Re: AJo becomes passive and calls down

This is the problem with AJo in EP.

I'm check/calling the flop with the intention of raising the turn unless a danger card falls. That A on the turn i dont like. I'm drawing to 2 outs against AK,...

Re: I give up!

havnt had time to read the thread, but looking at the hand, I'd raise it on the flop, making it 3 cold to UTG, +1 and +2, with the certain knowledge that MP1 was gonna cap it. I'd raise it on the...

Re: OESD in small 3-way pot

I would say no.. not enough to make a profit anyway (feel free to shout me down anyone). You're up against one loose/passive player, and one loose-ish/aggressive player, according to your read. I...

Re: OESD in small 3-way pot

I'd check/fold the flop. tiny pot, tiny implied odds, and your outs are tainted.

Re: JJ...

I'd check/call on the flop, and when the Jack hit the turn i'd check/call it down. Given BB's stats, his play could very well be AT, though I'm not rulling out AK, AQ, or AJ, and with 2 flush cards...

Re: Another Check/call, Check/call, Check/call hand

[ QUOTE ]
I was just curious why no flop raise.

[/ QUOTE ]

If there were more players involved in this hand on the flop then it would make more sense. As it stands, I'm raising the turn.
