Re: I have never run so bad....
Somehow reminds me of the last session I played, which abruptly ended when, in a 5 minutes span, QQQ got beat by 9999 and 888 got beat by 2222.
Crazy game.
edit: bad beats like that do tend to...

Re: $60 per hour?
Definitely possible.
But people have a way of making that sound easier than it is.

He was probably testing to see if the forum was working, because yesterday we couldn't post a thing for a couple hours.

and JT,QT,KT, which are all in a typical 6-max calling range.
But I agree that the river bet probably makes it clear that I'm behind.

Set, drawy board, bad villain
Villain is 70/20/0.6 so far, I've seen him bet quite a bit though when it's checked to him.
How's my line ?
Check-call turn ?

Playing a LAG with a set
Villain is LAG, 45/34/4 in 120 hands
Should I repop the flop, or maybe let him lead the turn ? (I thought checking the turn might be dangerous if he has a draw and decides to peel one off).

Re: they say poker is one long session
The money I'd stand to lose by reraising w 78s and 44 would not make up for the action I'd get on my aces, kings and queens when I reraise those preflop.
Apparently, this is not your case and...

Re: Top pair vs poor player
Let's say I bet 9 on flop and he repops to 18, should I be willing to reraise here ? His flop raising range probably includes FD, Q, set, combo-draw. I might then be inclined to raise ?
If I flat...

6-Max : Reraising with JJ preflop
This thread really has 2 questions about jacks.
1. Do you ever reraise with JJ preflop at 6-max ?
What conditions do you look for before repopping ?
High PFR from villain ?
Weak raise ?...

AA vs semi-tight raiser
Villain is 30/7.
Preflop, I think I should've made it 14-15. Do you flat call sometimes here with someone left to act ? Anyone make it more than 15 ?
Once he calls I narrow his range to JJ-KK....
