Re: Strange hand I observed this weekend
As GS I 3-bet PF to isolate against a hand that is likely much worse than KK... if this hand gets to the flop 9-handed, when GS could have made everyone face 2-3 bets, I feel like GS has made a...

Re: TT on the button. Variant on a theme.
Without a read on him, CO has literally any two cards. On this flop, you're either way behind, or dodging probably a 3-6 outer. Calling down is probably no good, I think, because if you are ahead,...

Re: \"Do You Play Check and Raise?\"
I think you should tell them "Nahh, I don't play check and raise," and then sandbag them every opportunity you get.
That way, angered, they may try to make poorly thought out moves on you in an...
