Re: AT giving up

I might fold to the reraise preflop and would definitely lead out for less on the flop, keeping the pot smaller so that even if he does minraise he isn't going to be all-in when it's all over with.

Re: 50NL 6max: SB JJ to raise and minreraise

Re: 50NL 6max: SB JJ to raise and minreraise

Villain 2's reraise is what makes this difficult, right? But don't a lot of people do this do a LAG who is raising 30% of his hands to see how much he really likes it this time? Villain 2 could have...

Re: 50NL 6max: SB JJ to raise and minreraise

Folding JJ for 7 big blinds is just too weak, IMO. I do have a read, and that is that Villain 1 raises with a lot of garbage. I don't know what Villain 2 would minreraise with, however.

I like the...

Re: Continuation Bets Getting Picked Off Too Frequently

I've played a lot of NL25 and now play NL50 (6-max) I haven't played the higher levels so I don't know about them, but I can say that I have experienced these CB-bet problems at these lower stakes. I...

Re: NC, I want to play like a maniac---My journey to the dark side

If by "the dark side" you mean using your anger and hatred to win pots, then I think you are on the wrong track. LAGs who play emotionally are losers. Anyone who gets involved emotionally is a loser...

Re: probably not a good post 200NL

Fold preflop and leave. Failing that, fold to the raise. Failing that and having limp re-raised, bet big on the flop. Failing that, turn is OK, river might be OK. Really would help to know what x, x,...
