Re: How bad did i play AA?

Re: checking a full house on the river

checking a full house on the river
20-40 at Hawwian Gardens. Solid player open raises from early position. Two middle position callers, over aggresive player calls on the button. I call in SB with black 5s.

results and thoughts

Re: Results
I think you really need to be at the table to be able to say if your play was correct. I take it there was some feel to the hand and you got a sense that he wasnt all that strong. Obviously, since...

Re: Going to war w/ a piece of cheese
Nicely played, Im sure your hand was good. I think the key to the hand was the action on the flop. I highly doubt either of your oppenents would play a set this fast from UTG or UTG+1 with all of...

thoughts, and supose the river gets bet?
I think one is too close for anyone to really be able to say what is correct. I would check in most cases. Nobody has a king. Although its possible someone may have checked a weak king on the...

Obviously, you arnt folding this hand for one chip thats awful advice, and I dont think raising here will acomplish a whole lot.
Looking back at the hand, it seems as though he has a heart or a...

Re: getting beat up
I like your check. This pot has become quite big and you are playing three handed. Any decent player is to call you down here. I think you probably had a better shot at getting him off the hand if...

huh?
Betting to get him to fold middle pair, why? The seven came on the river, and Vehn was raised on the flop. This does not make sense. If somehow his oppenent does hold a seven, he certainly isnt...

im not convinced about the river play.......
I see the arguments for 3 betting the turn here. However, Im surprised so few people agree with me that a call on the river is best. I understand that I am going to have the best hand here 90% of...

Re: 20-40 AK vs. Tricky EP Limper
I would bet, and I dont think its close. However, I would have raised the turn without thinking twice. Its an oppertunity to likely get the BB out, and you are going to have the best hand here a...

I can see Mikes argument for 3 betting the turn. I know the SB has a 10, and its almost impossible for the player in middle position to have two pair with that board. Its possible he could have had...

I think the 4 bet is fine because you know the 3 bettor will try try isolate many more hands because of the stradle. your hand is too strong to give up and capping is a far better play then calling....
