bottom 2 facing resistance

Re: NL 6 Max tough decision...
I think your 2 pair is good. A set of 2's is the only hand Im really concerned about. A big K is possible as well. I call.

Re: More maniacal action
I was thinking that there is the possibility that he is on the draw, but also a decent probability (50-50?) that he has a pair or better. So, the better chance to take his money is a scenario in...

Re: More maniacal action
Yes, I consider calling - he may very well be on the flush draw, str8 draw and just trying to isolate to get the short stack. The big overbet sets off those bells in my head that he's buying. Even if...

Foray into 100 NL - 8Ts hand
Im mostly a 25NL player, feeling confident and thought I'd take a crack at 100NL. I took down one of my largest pots that I can recall.

Re: what do u do here, i have no idea???
You didnt say what the limits were. But, barring any reads (you didnt even know how loose the table was?), I put him all in - after all there are only 4 hands you are really afraid of.

Re: Too aggressive?
Reraise a lot more on the flop next time. You are only a 64% (1.6:1) favorite against his 10 outs. Don't give him good enough odds to make that call.
Edit: Turn seems ok, since he called your...

Re: Bluff by zaxx19-bood bad ugly?

Re: Table Selection
I'd say:
2. Avg. pot size
4. Hand per hour
1. Pct. of players to see flop
3. Stack size for each player
anyone else?

Re: Table Selection
Barring any hand history with a specific player, I just go by VPIP for the table. As for fish, I look for loose passive passive players (using Bisons autorate rules) - VPIP > 40, PFR <7, and total...
