Re: 32s in the SB against a potential maniac
Oh, what limit does this happen to be at? Depending on what the blinds happen to be, I like or dislike the pre-flop call more or less. More at something like 15/10, medium at something like 2/1,...

Re: 32s in the SB against a potential maniac
Eh... I don't like much of it, considering you said he was a maniac.
So you wanted to see a flop with 3-high against a maniac in a three-handed pot. Not a big fan of that to start with. Then we...

Re: should i check the river here?
I'd check, but what convinced you to three-bet UTG with AJs?
I realize it's Party 2/4, so I'm assuming loose raising was the order of the day, and am guessing you got called down by pocket sixes...

Re: A good Turn check?
Looks good to me. If you get check-raised on the turn you get caught there with your pants around your ankles and it's not a pretty spot to be in. Have to call the river. I think you lost, but you...

Re: Raise on the river?
You played it exactly how they think you would've played it had you flopped trips. I tend to play these by betting out on the flop and turn. They'll usually hang around with queens up because they...

Re: Another blind hand
You can safely fold on the turn. Sometimes I get saucy on the flop when I don't want to play around with free-carders and three-bet him and lead the turn if the flush doesn't hit. It's just too...

Re: \"smart fish\"
These guys bug me more than the actual suckers, because they have some idea what they're doing but they're still bad. The ol' raise pre-flop, flop a set, check-call and check-raise the turn. Ugh,...

Re: Maniac play, well played or neither?
I tend to bet the river in these instances just to set up the impression that I'm a habitual bluffer when the inevitable QJo comes up at the show-down. QJo is the sucker's spanish fly. They're...

Re: Crazy again
In the words of Dumb and Dumber, "Ah like it ah-lot." I like the play in theory, anyways. I'm a fan of mixing up AK out of the blinds sometime by calling and check-raising the flop. The pre-flop...

If you're still playing well, stay in that game. I've sat at sweet tables, losing terribly for hours on end, but as long as the table is still good and I'm playing well I'm sticking it out. At a...

Re: What to do here?
I'd check-raise the flop because you don't want to shut out the bad players behind the rock and the loose raiser. Good check-call on the turn and good check-raise on the river. Betting your...

Re: Too far with a Full House??
You can slow down on the turn when a rockish old man takes you to three bets with a 999 board. The flop is fine, because you're setting him up for a raise on the turn, but when he takes it to three...
