Re: Complete with T3o?

If the limper has limped and folded to a raise previously and has approx the same to twice the number of chips as me, I might push here. Otherwise I fold.

Re: Spot the mistake...

Agree that the pre-flop play is horrible. Not so sure post flop.

Who do you think is calling me? With what range?

Btw, what's JV stand for?

Thanks Scott

Playing the hand, I had no intention of calling. I briefly considered folding, but thought this was too good an opportunity to pass up at stage where I need to accumulate chips. So...

Re: Silly mistake/bluff in WSOP

Could you have raised less pre-flop, say 500. Given yourself a more favourable stack/pot ratio post flop?

Re: Should I be laying down AA here

Doesn’t the problem here go back to the size of the pre-flop raise and (to a smaller extent) the flop raise? An initial raise of 60, followed by 100 on the flop would still leave 1140 behind. You...
