Re: Silly? Or okay?
Preflop is a little loose from UTG+1 on what doesn't look like a great table, but whatever.
The flop is iffy. If MP3 has an overpair, he's going to 3bet and blow away BB, charging you far more...

Re: How\'d you do on your 2005 poker goals?
I have succeeded greatly, and as result, failed miserably.
That is, I landed a good enough job that spending lots of time on poker is -EV. Most of my play since March has been helping my little...

Re: Puerto Rico Casinos?
Search for a thread I started about 6 months ago. Key points:
- The rake is huge, borderline unbeatable even with terrible tourist opponents. Of course, it didn't help that my 2nd nut hands ran...

Re: Action-packed suited connector
[ QUOTE ]
1) The PFR was a poster, and therefore a bit less likely to auto-continuation bet the flop
2) I'd rather trap the most people in this hand that I can, since I have top pair and a straight...

Re: Action-packed suited connector
I agree, we should be looking to c/r the flop given the position of the PFR. Lucky for us UTG popped it, but then nobody folds. You have to assume lots of people have an OESD.
Turn, I like the...

Re: Two bluff-raise hands (15/30)
Hand 1: Might work, metagame-dependent.
Hand 2: Utterly unconvincing. If you actually had a big hand (Kx, AA-TT), what's the chance you check behind the turn when the 3rd...

Re: River Action
Why give them a chance? What do you put them on?
SB sure looks like KQ/AQ/QQ. The Q on board is a /images/graemlins/diamond.gif so well over half of those hands have a big club. If he has an...

Re: Gutshot and over(s?)
There is a time & a place for this sort of raise. Lots of people misapply aggression, especially after they read SSH. Your situation is perfect. nh

Re: 2 tough overpair spots
Missed the lack of raise in hand #1. Bad.
Hand 2, nobody's checkraising the turn with AKs at 2/4. If it were heads up you could call down and hope to see QQ, but with two villians it's time to...

Re: ATs against a LAG
Looks great, Jason. He'll call your 3bet with a worse T, 9, or pair more than enough to make up for the times he's holding a strangely played KK. My only question is whether the villian's preflop...

Re: Blind defense with A9s
Looks good to me. You don't have enough outs to raise unless you think he's weak, which of course you have no idea. Your line lets you showdown your A9 cheaply while giving him a chance to fold a...

Re: AK ugh
Fold, or call if UTG+2 is aggressive postflop. From your average 60/6, his line is screaming that he can beat TPTK. Really now. He plays over half the hands in the deck. Why can't you put him on...
