Re: Easy flop fold?
[ QUOTE ]
I'd need another 4 or so small bets in the pot before I'd play this hand.

7 called preflop for 1 SB. If you need another 4, that's 7+4, or 11 SB. You would only call if...

Re: 3/6 hand standard
I disagree with the flush draw read. The implied ods just aren't there to justify a raise with just a flush draw. If it were me, and I had two overs and a flush draw, then I would raise, but then I...

Re: passively played str8
There's a big chance you are behind, but you can't fold a straight. I would cold-call a single bet on the turn and river, but fold to a raise.

Re: passively played str8
Think one of these 5 players is on a flush draw on this flop? You have 6 outs - not 8 (7/images/graemlins/heart.gif and 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif aren't outs since they complete the flush). ...

Re: HU against a decent opponent in the blinds
If the OP has read HPFAP, then he know that he's supposed to play tight/AGRESSIVE - not tight/passive. So many players today play tight/weak. I don't understand it, but I'm certainly not...

Re: Bet and Raise On Turn
Looks like UTG+1 has a 9T, raised pre-flop with his open-ended and hit it on the turn. Perhaps SB has QJ. Either way, it looks like your AQo is no good. I would fold.

I think if you are going to check this flop with this many people you should be doing so with the intention of check raising to thin the field. I like the rest though.

Re: Top 2 Pair on the Flop
Why oh why did you raise PF in MP1 with KJo? KJo is a fold / call hand for me, with the emphasis on fold. It's a trouble hand to say the least. It's so hard to tell if you have the best hand or...

Re: KK on this turn
You need to bet the turn to see where you are at.
Once you bet, if they simply cold-call, then you are probably still ahead. If MP1 raises, then I would fold. He probably has you beat. If MP2...
