Re: Standard KK line?
I was thinking that he would be unlikely to go AI with a worse hand after I bet out, so I could safely fold if he did so. But I guess the point is that I should be getting my chips in against the...

Re: Just how bad was this play?
If you fully expect the Button to continue on this flop even if he misses, then the check-raise is fine. However, you are better off pushing preflop with 99 because you have enough chips left to...

Re: 2nd nut flush draw early
Not much else you can do there. If you were HU and could put UTG+1 to a difficult decison, then making an aggressive play at the pot with a flush draw has some merit. You need some FE to make it a...

Re: fold 2 pair here?
I read the first line and immediately thought push. After reading the rest, it's still an easy push. With 650 people left in a freeroll, the donk factor is still really high. The push could mean...

Re: KK hu how was this played?
No, you can't fold this the way you've played it. How you play strong hands HU really depends on how previous hands have been played. For example, I like the pf limp much better if you have been...

Re: Tricky hand.
With 500 in the pot and many possible draws out there, your hand is vulnerable to too many turn cards. I think you have to push the flop with 870 behind. If the third flop card was something like...

Re: 99 after min raise and a call level4
A push here is standard with only 11xBB left. The caller will most likely fold, and the EP raiser's call/fold ratio is read dependent (Is it a standard raise? How often has he been raising?).

Re: Re buy tourney strategy
There have been many threads about this, so your post is unlikely to generate much discussion. I would just search for rebuy strategy threads, they should be easy to find.

Re: I need help analyzing this hand please
It's only a $5 tournament, but in general people are bluffing much less than you think. Especially when you have no read on the villain, you should be factoring in a bluff no more than 10-20% of the...

Re: Bubble hand #1.
If that's his range, why would you call with Q3s and then check the flop? Either fold it preflop, or lead out on the flop if there is a good chance he missed. I prefer a fold because you don't want...

Re: AK is the devil\'s hand
I agree with the others who say easy push when limped to you.
That said, you are getting 3-1 odds in the main pot to call (4k limps + 18k all-ins + ~2k blinds/antes in the pot vs. 8k to call),...
