Re: KK, 3/6 NL i suxors
I would fold this turn and not give it a second thought. I would think you have the best hand here maybe 10-15% of the time. The rest of the time villains should have either A4x, 33/44/55/66 maybe...

Re: KK facing huge overbet (Party 11)
The guy is tight. That does not mean he's an idiot. While once in a while people use reverse reverse psychology like this, its not worth worrying about. Be happy, click call, and move on. This is...

Re: So I folded AK on the bubble
I don't think its a clear call by any means. But I also think its clearly not an easy fold. I ran some math and you can argue with the specifics, but the general conclusions is that its about a...

Re: Two 200+15 hands
Is 4:1 with a small chance you get the other 1000 from the SB enough to make this bet? What I dont like about the call in the first hand is that you will never have any sense where you are unless...

Re: So I folded AK on the bubble
OK too much agreement here so I might as well throw in a dissenting view as food for thought. I don't think its a no brainer fold. I am after EV, not minimizing variance. While I agree you fold...

Re: 3rd in chips but shortstacked, how to play?
[ QUOTE ]
Saying if you were shorter stacked youd push doesnt make any sense - if you were 1700 would you push? But the only time it matters that you aren't 1700 is when the 3000 stack calls you,...

Re: 3rd in chips but shortstacked, how to play?
Am I the only one who would consider folding this hand UTG? If you get called you are 50/50 if lucky and 20/80 if unlucky. SOmetimes a small pair will call, but I would think a big pair would call...

Re: can i fold KK pre-flop ?
Nope. Only AA has you beat. And its a wierd way to play AA anyway. To me AA makes a smaller raise than this. If he has AA I pray and move on to the next SNG.
I put him on AK or a TT-QQ. I...

Re: AK 1st round, A on flop
I disagree with the bet on the turn. You have shown appropriate aggression preflop and made a flush or straight draw a dicey call on the flop. Your opponent has to know that AK is a strong...

As my title reveals I am only a "stranger"; but i dont know how/why you would have played this hand more strongly than you did.
You made a greater than pot sized raise. As luck would have it you...
