Re: A question for Steve Hudak
Oops yea my mistake. No I don't think he's calling preflop with hands like 87s.
I don't see why it would make you more likely to call though if he doesn't have 87s as if he did you'd also have to...

Re: A question for Steve Hudak
Let's try to guess at what his preflop calling range is. He's probably going to fold any hand except a pair or AK. I'm not sure how likely he is to reraise all in preflop with a big pair or AK. To...

Re: A question for Steve Hudak
Giving him AA, KK, 55, 7x only 20% of the time, a hand I'll be way ahead of 5% of the time, and a pair QQ or lower besides 55 or 77 75% of the time my EV would come out to about +15300 on the call. ...

Re: A question for Steve Hudak
If it was that simple I would call as I would expect to gain 19,800 chips in EV by making the call.
In the real-life situation that occured if you do an EV analysis giving my opponent a...

Re: A question for Steve Hudak
I had AK. Preflop he could have a very large range. On the flop I had 95k and bet 50k into a pot of over 90k. I'm left with 45k and after he check raises all in my thinking was it was less than 5%...

Re: BK and I disagree
As I wrote above, I don't think this one is close at all. But even if it was, we all still benefit by clearly stating and understanding all the reasons for betting or checking.

So if a similar situation came up where all the action was the same, and your reads were the same, would you bet or check the river?

Re: Hand vs Sklansky
You shouldn't call the turn with (maybe) 5 outs getting 7:1. The only reason to call would be if you thought there was a significant chance you still have the best hand which vs. a Sklansky flop 3...

I'm about 95% confident you lost this hand. He's overly tight passive at limit hold em. I wouldn't even bet the river because with the J I don't see you getting called by A highs, though maaaaaybe...
