Re: 10/20 short - a little bit too enthusiastic?
I would put him on pp, and given your table image it might be hard to convince him its no good. If he calls the flop and turn, he probably thinks he has the best hand, as a draw is unlikely. The...

Re: Pop Quiz Hotshot
I play plenty of 600nl and I doubt most people will fold tp+nut flush draw here. Since you assume you are drawing live, a push can be justified since you are breakeven or better in most siuations. ...

Re: Opportunity Comes Knocking
I'm a tight caller post flop but I will open raise 6handed with a lot of hands. I don't think these are contradictory. This depends on the feel of the table, but I think that a very high percentage...

Re: Opportunity Comes Knocking
I'm saying the logic behind it is routine, not the play itself. I used to be concerned almost exclusively as to whether I had the best hand. Now I am equally concerned with whether I can get the...

Re: What to do when you stop getting paid off
Top pair is by far more common than all stronger hands combined. You need to learn to play it well and not give people free cards etc by playing weak. It's very important that you win the pots...

Re: Opportunity Comes Knocking
I feel like you guys are missing the point. On the turn, it becomes obvious that I have the worst hand. This can dually justify a laydown or a push. I know I'm behind but put yourself in his seat....

Opportunity Comes Knocking
6 max party 1000pl - recently sat down, all players seem fairly average, no extreme agression or loose calling. I'm at about 1300, villain about the same.

check raise all in. if they are passive players who may take the free card, then maybe pot it. otherwise check raise all in. you are likely to have the best hand, and have outs even if you dont....

Re: Hey Bart
I definetely wouldn't call with AQ here. Given the action and no specific reads, I would say you are beat here > 80% of the time. It just so happened that this fell in the 20% but still, if you...

Re: 5/10 NL 6Max - 99
Call the turn and check fold the river. I genuinely don't see what is so marginal about either of these decisions. There are a lot of hand combinations not involving top 2 that the villains can...

This is awesome, long overdue, and i think very good for the better 2+2ers. I used to only play these stakes live. I don't see why people think 100bb is bad for better players. Time for major...
