starting hand chart for short-handed games
Can someone point me to a chart for short-handed? I'm sure it's even less useful than in a full game since you have to adapt even more, but my VPIP is a bit high right now (45) so I need to get a...

[/ QUOTE ]
Sorry to interrupt with the newbie question, but what is the correct way to play out the classic WA/WB situation? Is it calling down?

Re: when to slow down
I think it means that villain was being tricky by slowplaying his top set. This saved me a big bet (2 SB actually) because I would have happily capped it.

Re: when to slow down
I find a LOT of callers calling with crap here, a raise often means they have a little something. The board was so uncoordinated (no flush potential either, btw) that I really started to put him...

when to slow down
Pacific .50/1. Unraised preflop. 77 on a flop of T 7 3.
Flop he bet, I raise, he calls.
Turn is a 3, I bet out, we both raise until it is capped.
River is a Q, As I continue to raise I...

Re: do I have enough outs to call?
Many of you are saying that the over cards are not worth 3 each, maybe only 1.5. I'm just thinking now that all 3 kings might be worth almost 1 each, since I'll beat any Ace rag when a king hits and...

Re: Some confusing action on the flop
Good question, thanks for asking. I was sort of regretting the flop call as soon as I did it. Then when the 7 came on the turn and added to the potential straight, it made the fold easy.

Re: calling over cards in a big pot
My thinking, the pot is 13BB at that point. The chance that he was bluffing to that point with out even an ace is remote I admit, but I thought he would bet a flush draw and then bluff it at the...

Re: calling over cards in a big pot
I called the turn because the pot was 18 SB and it was 2 to call. 9 to 1 odds and if K or Q was still good then I only needed 6.5 to 1 to call. If he's on a flush draw then only four of them are...
