Re: 3 4/8 hands
Hand #1-
Jam this flop. You have 9 outs of 47 cards to make your nut flush (about 1 out of 5) on the turn + You are getting 9 to 1 on every chip you throw into the pot = the more money you get into...

Re: hand #2
What's he gonna call your river bet with that you beat? I think you're are beat here; bet the river if you think he's got a King and will fold for one additional bet. If not, check that thru.

Re: live 4/8 hand against Bizzztch at Canterbury
I wouldn't raise the river, what's she gonna call you with that your set beats? She's representing a flush, and since you've already said she's a rock, what were you thinking throwing money at her?

Re: Tricky TAG
A smart player wouldn't call a PFR with A9, so i think he's either got a set or is bluffing on the chane you missed the flop. Your hand is strong enough to three-bet him here. If he's as tricky as...

Re: Bad call/Bad Fold??

Re: AA on the button
CO seems like a LAG. I'm not sure what you think he had that could beat your aces (KK, QT, KJ, K9, JJ, 99 or J9). Most LAGs would either raise KK preflop, or if he's tricky, check re-raise so he...

Re: Reverse implied odds calling the turn with AK?
dude, first off you can't use that data set to justify your play-- its just too small a sample size. Secondly, you opponent's preflop raise tells you that hes got at least high cards or a pair. If...

aggression from EP (low content)
This is just a general question. I find myself in this situation frequently:
Party $25NL 6 Max, it's heads up or three way with no preflop raises. I'm in EP with middle pair, or TPBK and I bet...

His line was good. I like check/calling or check/raising the turn depending on the opponents play. You can gauge the strength of his hand a lot of the time by how he bets. For example, if you...

Re: Did I get outplayed here?
I think you played the turn a little aggressively. I usually check in this spot w/almost any hand and bet the pot occasionally with legitamate hands. His flop call gave you no info on his hand so you...

Re: what do u think, is it me or them
You showed weakness on the turn. A flop check-raise is a strong play, and should be followed by a turn value bet. It's rare to see a player check-raise on both the flop and turn. You are likely...

Re: Stop and go-ed out of the pot?
good fold, you bet strong but he still came over the top on the river. Could be AQ or QJ. I might've checked the turn for a read and possibly a check/raise.

Either you're way ahead or way behind; raise or fold. If you're going to play, show some strength and push on that flop. Do you think villain(s) would slowplay top/middle set? If not, I think you...

Re: Pocket Jacks against a TAG
You shouldn't be capping preflop here. If Villain is TAG, you have to put him on great starting hand. I'd be testing him on the flop and the turn, but if he remains aggressive, call him down. ...

Re: KK vs flopped pair
I'd say you have to 3-bet the flop here, while its still cheap. You can't give him credit for the three so easily in this spot. I would also check the turn to assess his strength.

I like the re-raise preflop. If your read of UTG+1 is Lag, this is a good strategic move to deter him from raising light in the future. However, his call down behavior on the flop and turn implies...
