Handheld Poker Games?
I would like to play poker "on the go." But I don't want to get on line and I don't want to fire up my computer for Turbo Texas Hold 'em. I know there are several handheld, battery operated games...

Re: I really have no idea what to do here
Well, with AQ, I have top pair and likely the best kicker, so I'd be making a value bet for a lot more than t50.
Hero has two options: try to pick up the pot right away, or try to continue...

Re: I really have no idea what to do here
1. PREFLOP: I think I'm only playing this hand if there are limpers in front of me. I want to play this in a large, multiway field. Since you're first to open, I recommend limping to encourage...

Re: Missed AK??
This is something I have learned on PP. I am glad you posted this.
You raised pre-flop against one limper, who called. BTW, I think your 3.3(BB) raise was a good amount. I like the idea of...

Re: Variance in MTT\'s
I keep track of how I'm doing by noting whether I lost money or made money. I usually play 5+1 30 man tables at PP. If I bust out of the money, that's a -6. In the money, deduct 6 from the...

Re: All-In... how should I have played?
I don't like limping when there is a chance the chip leading BB will raise a field representing weak hands. I think it's fold or raise. A raise is likely preferable, because then the BB has to...

Re: $5+1 Party Poker Multi Hand
I throw it away because I don't know what the player behind me is going to do, but my sense is that he has a hand. If he calls, I have to think I'm way behind, not just a coin flip.

Re: satellite bubble hand
The pot offers 2075:800, or 2.6:1. So you need 13 outs to continue. You have at least 15 outs. Three 4s, Three 8s, nine flush cards, and your three 7s may also be outs. I think you're about 2.1:1...

Re: Follow up question

Does anyone find it significant that my preflop play, while bad for my stack, did induce a weaker player to call who wound up busting himself out? If I push preflop and am called by TT...

Re: Call or Fold QQ
My first question is: What were the blinds. My assumption is they were very low compared to everyone's stack, so defending the raise isn't all THAT important. You're still alive to play another...

Re: First post - Don\'t go easy on me
I agree that you must fold pre-flop. A very tight preflop raiser raised UTG. From UTG, a player with 18/2 stats likely indicates AA-JJ, AKs-AQx. Fold.
