Re: Hmm...
Hi Dude,
I agree with your analysis. However, in your original post you stated that you would fold to a raise on the river. My point is if you are going to fold to a raise why not make it easy...

Re: BB, TP-NK
Hi Toby,
Not to be too critical, but your play on this hand is a little strange. I understand check-calling the turn, but why bet the river?? The 10 hurts your hand, and to some degree so does...

Re: Bellagio 4/8 AA
Hi Felson,
You just described the nightmare hand. A poor calling station that raises after you just 3-bet the entire table. You know probably you are beat by at least 2-pair, but both your hand...

Re: I don\'t usually call-raise the river
Hi Nick,
I don't know if you had a special reason for playing this hand, but I usually dump this hand in early position. It's just not a good spot to be unless you hit the flop hard (i.e. 2-pair,...

Re: Did I lay down the winner?
Having just flat-called the pre-flop raise, I would
call a flop bet with the intention of check-raising the
turn. However, once the king hits the turn, I would
check-call all the way.
This is...

Re: Value raise with AA?
I think even if you did get 3-bet on the river, it's a fairly easy call. And the only reason I think so is because you did raise the last 3 of 4 hands. I've noticed when players start raising in...

Re: Value raise with AA?
Hey Jai,
Nice raise on the river. It's unlikely that your opponent is holding a better hand (trip 7's or turned straight)as they most likely check-raise the turn. There is a small chance that he...

Re: Bet or check?
Your post was a little confusing. The woman was UTG+1, correct? If so, then you act after her, you cannot check-raise her. Did she check the flop?
In any case, pre-flop, if the woman has loose...

What are you planning to do if you miss your "super draw" on the river? (I'm making an assumption that the original bettor will call your raise.)

Re: Pocket 9\'s question

Raising with 99 (and to some degree pocket 10's), IMO, really has to do with what kind of game you are in. Generally, the tighter the game is the more inclined I am to raise and in...
