Re: 15/30 river decision

Hi ts,

You didn't put much description of the villain, and if he were an unknown, I would definitely call down. If villain can be tricky, and hangs around for any gutshot, then I would have...

Re: AK flop decision - 20/40

Thanks Nick, Westley & Bernie. Sometimes I need reassurance that although I lost the hand, I did the "best" play available at the time. Bernie made a good point about BB calling the flop regardless...

Having said that, I do agree that loose passive + raise pf = strength. This time I didn't think that to be the case.

Re: outplaying myself

I actually like your play on the flop. The pot is big and you made a play for it. Once you decide to do so (rather than just simply folding to his flop bet), you have to play it out.

It's rather...

Re: Flop check (live play)

Hi Sparky,

The check is fine. Looks like a showdown table here. To go against the subject a bit, I prefer a limp to a raise preflop. You will not clear the field preflop with a raise and will...

Re: AK, 3-betting pre-flop isn\'t standard anymore?
