Re: Aces full vs semi scary board

Even if I had considerably more than 4 bets left, I'd easily go 4 bets against this guy. Re-read your description of him. Do you not think he'd play this way with any King-rag....or even possibly...

First, that's an easy call from the blinds. You have to defend your blinds, otherwise a good player will eat you alive.

Re: River Value bet:: Yes or no

I think the key to this question is how you play. If you check and he bets, will you call or fold? I am giving you the credit that if you bet and he raises, you will likely fold. So if you check...

Re: this is standard or do I lead here?

Checkraising the flop is nice, you trapped two extra players for more bets. Once PF Raiser 3 bets and knocks those two out, I'd call. Planning to check raise the turn. If MP2 and SB called MP1's 3...

Re: Discuss options on turn please

I think you have to bet the turn. That leads to a few scenarios.

Scenario 1 - he calls. He either has a pair (possibly Aces) and is resigning himself to calling down or he is on some type of...

Re: How Volatile is Party 2/4 Hold\'EM

I've lost 400 dollars at 2/4 in a lot less than 6K hands. So it is definitely within reason.

But as a beginner, you are probably making at least a few routine mistakes. Sort your starting...

Re: JJ - Reraised by tight passive

The way it played out and now that it is our action, I'd 3-bet. I can't imagine a tight passive calls a check-raise and a check-3 bet with just overs on this ragged board. While he probably would...

Re: Do you fire one more time for value?

I'd play this as a bet/call. Checking without any solid reads just seems like missing potential bets. Folding the river after you bet and LP raises in a decent sized pot (again with no strong...

Re: really weird AJ hand 3/6

It certainly came across as a justification for your play. You're getting a lot of people who disagree with what you did. Take that for what it's worth. Congratulations on winning the hand though.

Re: KQ the Dominated

I think you have to sometimes just take your lumps. This seems like one of those hands. If he raised the turn, I'd seriously think about folding.

As for calling the flop and betting out on the...

Re: Bet and Raise On Turn

On the turn, I am getting 12:2 to call. I have 5 outs to two pair or 3 of a kind. Some of these might be tainted by straight/flush draws/hands with a Q that have already made two pair/sets. I'll...

I like the river because I can't figure out what worse hand a decent to good player will call you with if you bet out. If it were a horrible player, I'd bet the river though.

I'd 3-bet this flop and lead the turn.

But if you're going to just smooth call the flop, shouldn't the plan be to check raise the turn?
