Re: Back to poker... I still suck
Sometimes I like to c/r the flop in hand one, if the pfr is weak and won't automatically showdown ace high on a board like this.
Don't bet the river the way this went down in hand 2. The way that...

Re: Playing KJo Preflop
I raise all four. I used to just complete w/the last two and try to flop a pair but I think it's better to push the preflop edge even at the sake of increased variance.

Re: Tight Play
In most of these SS games you could probably win playing at 15% or so. Since the rake is brutally high, you wouldn't be losing that much at that % either. Still 22-25 is much better, at 15% you just...

Re: Okay, Ed, I raised.
Raising preflop 2% more often shouldn't make that big of a difference. Maybe a few tenths of a BB/100. Either way at 1/2 you should be way in the black with either set of stats. You may be running...

Re: Making him fold a better hand
This is a play I try sometimes and it never ever works and I never fold to it either even if I probably should, so really you're just throwing away bets.
Remember, nobody ever folds a hand with a...

Re: AK on button novice question
I usually bet this turn as I think that since you have added equity from picking up the draw, the chance of folding out a better hand or a hand that would improve to beat you on the river outweighs...

Re: At what point should I have dumped my Aces?
This is a pretty basic fold on the turn, these guys would have to be idiots for you to be ahead there. You're probably against at least one 6 and/or a flush as these guys have each bet/raised at...

Re: river clear as mud
This river is pretty clear in that it's a clear bet. He could have caught up with an 8 and I agree you won't get called very often as a draw seems likely but he certainly calls with any pair and...

Re: Little hand
I like a call and turn raise. Even if he's bluffing you don't mind him folding the turn since he often will have 6 outs against you. Meanwhile you maximize value against his worse hands and total...

Re: What else am I doing with these aces??
You need to bet here to charge all the hands that will get half the pot off of you if another heart falls on the river, and/or possibly get called down by worse hands. If you get checkraised call and...

Re: What am I doing with these aces??
Often you will be up against a queen but in general you have way, way too strong of a hand to be check calling on a flop like this. Also these guys suck and if you bet and get raised and they...

Of course the BCS is better than the old system, since at least now we are guaranteed one meaningful game (although the rest are still totally pointless.)
College football is still about as much of...

Re: Textbook wait for turn in huge pot?
If your one goal was to protect against a gutshot straight draw then you should probably go for the turn raise, but there are more hands that can beat you than just those, and more importantly, those...

Re: 2-4 KQ
I always raise preflop but whatever. Lately I have been sucking when I get KQ out of position against some cold caller who never folds until the river. It's not as great as it seems.
Weird hand.

Re: You rate your top 10 NCAA Teams
Everybody has Notre Dame rated so highly because they lost a close game on a bad call (albeit at home) to the team is at least a 4 point favorite against any of these other teams.

Well yeah, it's usually even money on the river when there's a straight on the board.
