Re: Maximizing with the nut flush
Slowplaying the nutflush is almost always safe. The only hand he could have that can beat you with one card is a set or a twopair, and twopair seems very unlikely here. Besides, he would hardly check...

Re: Smooth call, raise or push?
With your stacks, I would smooth call, and then see the flop. And unless the flop is very dangerous (for example, JQK suited), I would reraise all-in after flop, since he will most likely come out...

Re: is it as easy a decision as i 1st thought?
QJ is one of those hands that works pretty good to raise with, but works very bad to call with (unless its cheap with high implied odds). In this case, you are almost guaranteed to be an underdog,...

Re: 88 UTG+2, facing a raise
Well, think like this: what could he possible have that you are a favourite against? At best case, its a coinflip, and at worst case you are a 4-to-1 underdog.
Easy fold. Or if you are a...

Re: Awkward 99 Hand (Party Super)
Calling is to weak, you will have no idea what to do against a raise, and you might get hands like TJ to play, which you definitely want out.
A normal preflop raise of 3-4BB, and then fold to a...

Re: Is this bad play?
I think you should fold there, unless you think the reraises thinks you are on a steal. But if you havent done any obvious steals before, TT is an easy fold here.
The reraiser most likely has one...

Re: Better way to play this?
You could hardly hope for a better flop, so bet or check-raise on the flop. Even an all-in here isnt bad, but a bit risky just in case he has a higher flush draw, an overpair or a set.
The way you...

Re: prima 22k,making a play
Well, if I where the big stack, I would immediately put you on either a flush draw or a straight draw when you bet that flop. You would hardly bet strong if you flopped trips.
Now, the big stack...

Re: Have I become weak tight?
Well, since you seem to dislike playing flops, the first step is to raise instead of limping. And if the flop hits you, (like a Q when you have KQ) you have to bet. Why would you play a hand like KQ...

Re: Take a Shot or Wait for a Better Spot?
An early limper could be either weak or strong, and since he has you covered by a large margin I think his overall folding equity here isnt that good.
I would call the 0.5BB, and then bet if the...

Re: Standard AQoff, or leak?
I dont think this is a clear as it looks. Obviously the safe play is to fold and move on. But if the villian is a strong player, he could very well make this move thinking you only raised to pick up...

Re: Advice on this early position AA hand
I agree with everyone else. A bigger reraise preflop would be inorder, I would probably make it 250-300. A small raise just screams big pair, you want him to think you have something like AK, just in...

Re: Party Super - Early AK Hand
This looks like a perfect push opportunity. With some luck, an AQ might call (although that is a bad call), and only KK or AA will be bad. But 80% of the time you will just pick up the pot.

Early in the tourney, I would call here. If I get kicked out, I can spend my time doing something else, and if I double up I have a good stack to get far. Gambles like these are exactly what I like...

Re: AT in the BB faced with a push from the SB
Well, look at it from the villians perspective. Why would he risk all his chips with a hand as A9 or worse? Why not make a standard 4BB raise?
I would fold here in an instant, unless I knew he was...

We played at the same table for a while tom, although you had a harder time than me. Not that I did great, busting out a few places before the money.
