Re: John Juanda Crosspost
The reason that past hands matter more in No Limit is that in No Limit (especially late in a tourney) is a game with a lot less information in terms of cards shown. Most of the time, late in a...

Re: Another World Class Player Rant
First of all, I'll check again tonight, but I'm almost positive that the percentages were more in the 60/40 range, and I think it was even worse than that.
Secondly, this is a tournament, Dynasty,...

Re: Stud WSOP event
I gotta agree with you here. I was quite dumbfounded by the level of play. I started playing poker 5 years ago and used to play strictly stud (live and tourneys) and I really don't think there was...

Re: Rolled up two\'s, a bring in question..
Raise, no question. There is less reason to slowplay when the pot is already large (which it is). You also very much want the ten and the completer to be out of this pot. 222 is very powerful but you...

Re: TT against the two big stacks
First thing to note is that I have seen miniraises MUCH more frequently mean weakness rather then strength. I would re-raise this bet pre-flop. Clear everyone else out and put the chip leader to a...

Re: Kill Pot at Foxwoods
I've played in this game, you should most definetly fold to the four bet on the turn. If he's a solid player the worst hand he could four bet pre-flop is AK. Do you really think he can be four...

Re: Hasan Habib
Your reply is somewhat contradictory. You say in your reponse to the 8 3 hand that 200,000 was not that much money and then you defend Hasan limping for 100,000 in response to the 10 6 hand. If...

Re: AA UTG - Too Weak?
I don't mind the limp and non-reraise before the flop. If you did re-raise pre-flop, it would scream AA and since you have only one opponent, you can take a chance with a flop.
On the flop, I...

Re: AK UTG at Final Table
Seele,
As everyone has said, you should be pushing the flop. Given that, in this particular hand, it would not have made a difference, he flopped a pair and a flush draw, so he's not folding. Just...

Re: Too weak on the river?
If you raise the flop with AKo on a J104 board, it should only be to obtain a free card on the turn with overcards and a gutshot. You should shut down on the turn and river if you don't improve. Low...
