Re: I really thought hard about this hand...
I really don't like checking the turn. Sure, Button could have a flush draw. But also a weaker ace. But when you check the turn, Button sees a lot of weakness, so even without a flush, he's...

Re: Help a weak tightie please!
Hand 3 is a possible call, but only if you are really good postflop, you think UTG will fold a better hand to aggression, and you're good at hitting sets on the flop.
Hand 5... you're getting 7:1...

Re: The Turn
See, by not raising this flop, you put yourself in a really bad position. He could have been leading the flop with something like a weaker king or a crappy Ace. A raise could have gotten you a free...

Re: JJ in an awkward position
Bet the turn. With the passivity you've seen so far (though not many hands), you can bet the river again and feel fairly comfortable folding to a raise.
Second hand: I would call down. That's...

AC 8/7 - 8/8

Re: Weird line by a tight opponent
If it's higher than a Ten, bet/call the river. If it's lower, bet/3-bet.
I really don't think he has TT here. First of all, he can only have it three ways. Secondly, if he's that tight, would...

Re: 3/6 QJs
I don't like the coldcall pf. As first to act after the raiser, you have no idea what's coming behind you. Best-case scenario, the button and the BB come along. And if the button comes, you're out...

Re: Greenstein - Good Article.
Out of curiousity, and because I haven't seen it mentioned in this thread... how big IS this "big game"? Limit? No-limit? Blinds?

I don't mind the flop call. But might I suggest a different course of action? Bet the flop. This flop didn't hit UTG. He either has overcards or a pocket pair (read?) If there's a good chance...

While folding some laundry, this hand stuck in my mind. Here's why:
I'll say that one of them is on a flush draw. Not both. Maybe neither, but I'm not counting on that. So let's say we check. ...

Re: Interesting/funny hand
I saw this happen at a live 2/4 table. Board was something like KJ22A. One guy had quads, the other guy had the straight. Hysterical.
