Re: Am I a LAG?
Given that the button posts a live time charge of $3 (and thus the raise only costs CDC $3, not $6) I think this is a good raise.
I take the free card on the flop. Thats a big part of the...

9/18 - T7o in the BB and a turn decision
Lucky Chances 9/18. Good game, but not outstanding.
To set the stage, I had a great run of cards early in the session, leading up to this hand. So I've been raising pre-flop a lot. And pushing...

Re: Preflop decision: ATo
So we're limping with ATo in MP after one bad EP limper? This just doesn't sound right either. What if we held A9o? KTo?

Re: Preflop decision: ATo
The fact that the hand becomes easier to play when raised would push this into a raise, IMO.
In what way does the hand become easier to play when raised? It unlikely to narrow the field. And it...

Re: Jacks...this should be good
I think that the only street that is marginally debatable is the turn. You're getting 15:1 on your call with the third nut flush draw and a longshot draw (22:1) to your set.
Other than that, it...

Re: 15/30 AJs turn decision
interesting. on a board like this, I wouldn't expect to be best that often. I'd still call down, since there are enough draws to justify it, but I don't feel confident that I'll win.

Re: Q7s on the baton
I think the only thing interesting is preflop. Part of me wants to raise. Someone set me straight.
You, sir, are a LAG.
