Re: AJos in the BB against a limper and a sb raiser.

I think 3 betting flop is good here, probably knock out the utg limper.

As played you are probably beat, don't have the odds to continue, and folding to the 3 bet is probably the best play. I...

Re: 4-flush on turn, bet or check-call?

I lead the turn to give him a chance to fold.

You have plenty of nut outs to call his raise, plus the A outs may be good enough.

Chk fold the river UI.

Re: How was this hand played (1/2 6max)

I like the play of the hand. I don't think you could fold on the river , the pot is too big.

Re: AJ, too weak?

No way to fold this pf. The bb may think that you are raising as a steal, a lot of players will 3 bet you with a wide range of hands in this situation- you may not be dominated.

After he 3 bet...

Re: river raise?

I like the river raise, there are a lot of hands he could have that he would play the same way e.g. AQ , 88. If he 3 bets the river, I would just call .

Re: Do I need to pay this off??

I think this is a good fold, unless you have some read, or some reason to believe , that he would be taking a shot at you here. The way the hand is played it certainly looks like you have an A , so...

Re: Just a really quick PF question (soooted)

Re: JJ in the small blind

I think if you call the raise on the flop, it would be better to chk/fold the turn UI.

Re: AQ vs a utg limper

Against a very passive post flop player, I don't really like being raised here on the rvr. It would help to have some notes on this player. Being 4 bet on the river by a passive player is almost...

Re: TT v Overcard

Value bet the river, fold to a check raise , if he is a lp he will call with a 6, 3 , small pp, a K , maybe even and A .

Re: I Know 2+2 Wants To Kill Me For This......

I like calling here. I don't think we have to be up against AA or KK here. I see people with these stats raising utg w/AJ, and co reraising with AQ, AK, TT, 99 etc. Perhaps calling in this situation...

Re: Trash in checked field

I think you should bet the flop. As played when the board pairs small on the turn, the sb or bb frequently will bluff here after the flop was checked around. It would help to have a better read on...

Re: JJ in the small blind

Looks ok to me, looks like he has some thing like KT, or a small pocket pair, and the A combined with your bet scared him.

Re: QQ - Slow down too soon on paired turn?

I would have to raise the river here, if he beats me with quads so be it, but I think there are many other cards he could have based on your reads.

Re: 3/6 turn decision, fire again or take the free card?

I like taking the free card here, I would hate to be chk raised. I think you would have an easy fold on the river UI if he bets into you.

Re: Against extreme LP

"BB is EXTREMELY loose-passive" - extremely loose players don't usually 3 bet without close to the nuts. I would expect to see this type of player show either 88 or a 3.

After he 3 bets you only...

Re: QQ and the worst possible flop.

On the flop the only hands that you could be beating are JJ, TT, 99 , and I don't see him check raising the flop with one of those hands unless he is a complete maniac.

Have you seen him do this...

Re: New to 6 max - is this a standard fold?

Definitely raise the weak complete by sb with A6s. Call the river, your hand is good at least 1 out of 8 times. It helps to have a read on the player other than just stats.

Re: My girlfriends wants me to win the WSOP 2006!!

I recommend that if she wants a WSOP champion to take her to dinner that she might look up one of the past winners and see if they are available.
