Re: A very weird spot 10 20 party

I played the 10/20 Party game a few weeks ago. There were actually 2 hands where someone min raised to 40 MP, and I pop it to 140$ w/ AQ...<i>Both</i> times I was re-raised to around 400-500$, and I...

What's your suggestion as to why the play was "horrible".

SB has KK.

IMO I was destined to lose money via the cards dealt and situation. I can almost guarantee that if he had 88,TT,JJ,QQ, SB pays same bets. Some situations are like a lottery ticket,...

Interesting QQ hand. Loose image.

Ok, up until this point I have been bringing the pot in for 4xBB probably 7 out of every 10 pots. Been playing pretty aggressively, and setting the pace for the table. This gentleman has been one...

Re: preflop question

What's the standard raise in a game like this? I'd guess 3-4 BB's? Because he raised 6 BB in EP, I'd assume a higher quality hand than yours. I think that you should call in hopes of improving,...

Re: Would you ever fold this set?

I don't think you should let JK play vs. your QQ in the first place. I don't think you can fold this set though...If he flops nuts, why wouldn't he check raise you on the turn? A could have AQ, TT,...

Re: AA - Turn 3 Flush (please rip me apart)

Stacks really aren't big enough here to say it was a horrible play, since you were the aggressor. However, I don't like how you only raise 1 BB preflop, making the chances of him having a 9, flush...

Re: Neverlose

I think at one point he was a bot. The issue was brought up to PS by a number of the 100/200 players. It was investigated, and NLose still plays on Stars quite frequently, however, it seems to me...

Re: A serious case of being on tilt

I think that starting in NL is a VERY bad decision, especially 1/2 blinds + 4 tabling. That's the equivalent of playing 4/8 NL; I.E. Needing at least 5K Bankroll. I started playing NL as well, and...

Re: Any specific things to keep in mind when moving up to Party NL100?

I think the 50 buy in game at party is tighter as well. When moving up, make sure you've got about 2-3K in your BR, and that you feel confident in your NL ability, and you should do pretty well at...

Re: trip jacks with a weak kicker

Well in a low limit game, you pretty much can assume a raise on that turn is low set or J with at least T kicker.

Re: 1/2 KK hand

I think you played it optimally from the information you have. IMO you got payed by Q's, perhaps J's.

Re: What\'s your move here

Opening for 5 BB with AQ off? That's a 10th of max buy-in. If the players are any good, getting called...

Re: I played this horribly.....right?

IMO, you played this had tooo slow on the turn. If this is PL..why are you raising in 1$ limit-like incriments? I would've probably been a little more aggressive, however that hand didn't 'appear'...

Re: Party Poker $100NL vs. $200NL

I used to play both (100$nl/200$) tables at Party pretty extensively--I'd say, the 100$ is a little easier due to a Copious amount of chasers(Which can hurt from time to time).

I am guessing...
