Re: KK Capped Multiway, Terrible Position
I can't find a bet here. W. Deranged is right... you're getting raised way too often here. I don't know 3betting range of CO, but him checking the flop through either means a complete miss or a...

Re: JJ Against a Giant Nit
While I have no idea who this "Margeaux" character is, I think raising the flop is great. He's likely to 3 bet, or at the very least donk bet the turn (I have a feeling he loves the donk bet, just...

Re: AQo line
River bet is fine. His line to me seems like KQ or 87 are most likely, though w/ a VPIP of 24 and a low PFR, KQ in this position w/ that aggression rating seems a little more likely. Nice Hand,...

Re: standard postflop after UTG bluff???
I'm 3 betting the river. Since you raised UTG pre-flop and the K and Q of /images/graemlins/diamond.gif are out on board, and since you raised the flop, it's not obvious you've hit your flush......

Re: TT on the button. Variant on a theme.
If I have no previous data on the villian, I'm raising the flop and folding to a 3 bet. Your play makes it plausable that you have AK or stronger, and if he 3 bets OOP it scares me just a bit, and I...

Re: \"Do You Play Check and Raise?\"
sorry, should have said "low mid limit" but this mostly happens at games around 10-20. For those who haven't played the Foxwoods 10-20 stud game, it really is that bad at times.
