Re: Guess my opponent\'s hand

well just on the basis his hand supposedly makes no sense... I'll go for 97 or 97s... for the nuts straight that he forgot to bet on the river

Re: A few hands for comment

hand 2: I'll bet...

Re: Results

Actually I dont think the big stack call is marginal, he would make a mistake not calling, as he definitely has the odds against any cards (apart from AK, AA, KK and QQ). From his point of view, if...

Re: not knowing your opponent, a 5/5 PLH hand

I'm probably wrong here, but I think I would just call... If you bet the max again, he will call you if he's got you beat, and will probably call you as well if he's drawing for the nut flush (I...
