Flop:

If you are going to call preflop, you have to raise here. You have a lot of equity, and this is a great spot to make the other playrs call two bets cold (incorrectly) with their...

Re: 1/2 PS LO8 hand - is this hand played properly?

It'd be easy to think this, but given the situation I was the victim of an absolute donkstrike. It was not uncommon for players to be raising/three-betting their lows in this game. I was the only...

Re: 1/2 PS LO8 hand - is this hand played properly?

about 90% of the time I fold this hand (the 10% of the time I do play its either in these conditions or in the blinds) but I felt conditions were ideal, and I would stand to win a nice pot if I hit...

Re: QQ HU -- opponents bets out on 3 suited board on turn

I think you played this fine. If he does have a lower flush that would explain his bet on the turn, rather then going for the checkraise. I think he's more likely to have A...

Re: overplayed? KQs

My play is based on the fact that at micro-limits, no matter how many outs you have, players are going to call w/ all sorts of hands - even a naked ace that doesn't have a pair yet is ahead and a...

Re: Am I a moron on this hand

Re: An example of a play w/ AA in your hand

Thank you for your kind reply. It is a play I really don't see at the PL .1/.25 blinds on Pokerstars - typically what I do see is when someone has a hand w/ aces in it is they raise the pot as the...
