Re: Results
It was early, but I guess it was what people call a "speed" tournament? Started with around 50 people and the blinds started at 100/100, then went up every 10 minutes starting at 100/200 and then...

I called the bet and went all in on the flop (only another $200) when everything was below 10's on the flop. We both flip over our cards and he shows QQ. Turn and river no improvement so I bust...

Re: No-limit tournament in Mesquite, NV
Unfortunately, this was pretty early in the tournament, and the hands he had raised previously never made it to a showdown, so I wasn't sure of his raising standards. However, this was his "biggest"...

No-limit tournament in Mesquite, NV
Was in Mesquite, NV this weekend. Decided to sit down at a no-limit tournament ($15 plus one $15 re-buy). Never played in a no-limit game or tournament, but thought it would be a cheap way to...

Re: Colorado Poker
I've been a fair bit. There are poker rooms at the Lodge, Fortune Valley (Central City), Mountain High and I may be missing one or two. Those are the places I've played in.
The games I've seen...

Should have clarified! Mesquite, Nevada! So, if I stay in that neighborhood, I think my choices are Casa Blanca, Oasis and there may be one or two more. Just curious what games they spread. I'm...

Re: Oops!
I agree with StellarWind regarding the pre-flop raise. I would simply limp in with TT almost all of the time (maybe you did this to change gears).
When UTG+1 raises (apparently an attempt to...

PokerStat vs. Poker Tracker
I'm currently testing PokerStat, but any comments on the two programs. Which do you prefer? Is PokerStat worth the extra cost? Any comments are appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Worst played hand ever?
You raised pre-flop to get it heads-up agains the sole limper. A pretty tight board is flopped, so you know a draw is possible. This is not the place to slow-play pocket aces in my opinion. If a...

Re: Interesting Hand
If he has 77, he really is a maniac. He is out of position against an UTG pre-flop raiser, an ace and a king come on the flop and he's four-betting? I've got to believe he has at least two-pair...

Re: Interesting Hand
Wanted to supplement my answer. Seeing as the BB called your pre-flop raise, I'm more inclined to believe he had A2s.

Re: Interesting Hand
Without knowing anything about how the BB plays, I would put him on K2 or possibly A2, with you winning the pot with the larger boat.

Re: good laydown?
I agree with Rock. I would have bet the turn. He didn't re-raise you on the flop, so he most likely had an Ace (which he showed you) with a weak kicker or a nine with a good kicker. If you bet the...

Re: A friendly reminder
I would agree with your "bottom pair" comment if the board had three distinct cards (meaning, not paired). However, with the flop paired, the chances are less likely that someone has caught the...

Re: AK hand-what to do?
I would have bet out on the turn. You have TPTK. I realize the flop was capped, but could they have capped with flush/straight draws? If you bet out the turn, you'll probably find out quickly if...

Re: Weekend Hand
Thanks for the reply, Bob. I think that is a leak I need to plug. I do need to bet the river more.
