Re: 2 Controversial hands from the WSOP ME

Had you been not in a hurry, I'd say fold the first hand preflop and the second on the flop.

Re: What\'s the deal with limp re-raising?

Yeah, aces or maybe kings if it's not a bluff. TJ calls it "second-hand low" when the AA is not the first limper and hopes for a raise.

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

I would be more inclined to call, though, if I was just against one opponent, not two or three.

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

As I said, calling on the flop is a reasonable alternative. It all depends on who you play.

Re: 5/5 NL at Woods: What is Villian Doing?

I'd definitely check the river. Unless he is a moron, the only hands that he will not fold will have you beat, so you don't make any money raising. I am not sure, though, what his hand might be. His...

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

I'll take a free draw any day, even to two outs, as long as you don't raise. What do you do if they make a big bet later? How do you know if the turn or river helped them?

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

On this flop, I guess calling is a reasonable alternative, depending on the opponents. I prefer raising though. Your hand is not strong enough for a flat-call, too much of a chance that somebody will...

Re: 10-20 NL hand PP

To be done if a raise is called, you have to raise a lot, about the same you would spend on a checkraise. There is just too much of a chance that the villain will call a small raise with a lower ace,...

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

Huh? Almost never raise? Even with the best hand? It's called value-betting, helps you win some more money. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: 10-20 NL hand PP

You said raising is a way of avoiding a tricky decision, I was saying that it does not entirely avoid it.

Re: 10-20 NL hand PP

Raising the flop is reasonable, but also does not solve all the problems. What do you do if you get called? Do you bet the turn, or call his bet, or fold?

Re: Results and thoughts...

There is a reason why it is called the idiot end of the straight. Even with a set on the turn the button would have outs, and with 78 bb has none. Should have folded.

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

If you have seen him do that in the past, you can go ahead and gamble, although he might still have AQ or set. In no limit, calling raises like this will cost you a lot of money.

Re: 10-20 NL hand PP

Check-raising lets you know for sure if you have the best hand or not. If you are called or reraised, you are done with the hand.

Re: Standard but Important AK Situation

The guy has either a set or AQ. Easy fold.

Re: AA did I hose this or what..??

Preflop you had to reraise, maybe to $40-45 or so. You don't want to lose the villain, but you don't want to make it a family pot with the blinds in it.
On the flop, you should have pushed all-in...

Re: 10-20 NL hand PP

I think preflop raise may or may not be right depending on the table. After the reraise from the villain, a call is reasonable, although folding may be a safe way to play it. I'd be very suspicious...

Mucking is right, I agree completely with the previous replies.

Re: Need advice, to play or not to play in Stars 500k tourney

If you really need the $215, take it. It is likely that you will not win anything if you play, but it's a great experience.
