Re: 5/10 NL PP Hand against AZK

This is above my level (2/3 live @ Commerce) but this looks like a push to me. Given your smallish(?) flop bet, SB could think you are betting an unimproved AK/Q. Unless he like to slowplay AA/KK...

Re: Is this too weak-tight?

No, I don't think so. One of them is turning over 77+ and the other some sort of straight/flush made hand/draw.

Re: 3rd pair, flush draw flop CR

Villain is getting 3:1 on the call, so he'll call with any pair (and probably a flush draw as well). I think if you are committed to going to the river with villain, smooth calling and pushing the...

Re: Bad Bad Day! Hand 6.

Not to mention the fact that it is six-handed.

Re: First Time Post need advise

Underbet on every street except maybe preflop.

Flop ($24): you bet $5??? Make it $15 at least
Turn ($39): you bet $10?? Get min-raised, flat-call. First, bet more like $25-$30, and re-raise the...

You have $75 left and the pot is ~$87, right?

Re: Bad Bad Day! Hand 5

JTs and T9s come to mind. If they are hearts, maybe it is close to even with one card to come (too lazy to check twodimes).

Edit: I wouldn't call 7BB from the SB with either of those, but you...

Re: Bad Bad Day! Hand 2

And it's all because you didn't raise enough preflop. With AQs you want one or zero callers not four.

I disagree. I'd much rather play AQs in a multiway pot. AQo I...

Re: Hand 3 for Review: Flopped Top Set, Reraised on Turn

If you think the "donkey" would raise pf with AQ, then pop him back. Otherwise I call it down, trying to get a cheap showdown.

Re: QQ vs PFRR and flop push

Yeah, looks good to me too. I think reraising pf is not correct, even though you have position. Anyone disagree?

Re: Causes and effects of being on tilt (3 hands)

Hand 1: Push the turn. What could he have that beats you after he reraised pf?

Hand 2: Fold to the min-reraise on the flop. (Or certainly fold the turn).

Hand 3: I would fold the flop, but...

Re: Reasonable set play?

I might just smooth call the flop and put the raise in on the turn. I wouldn't be too worried about the queen. I don't think BB has AT, and while 9T has you beat, I don't think it's too likely,...

Re: Would you have played same way if you were villain??

I would have played it the same way as villain, but I suck. Two pair is a very dangerous hand, as it usually means there is a str8 draw on the board. With his flush draw he has 13 outs to improve...

Re: Unorthodox move in a live game

I don't know the players or the game but I don't see you getting called by a hand that you dominate often enough to make it worth it. Usually you will see a higher pair or at least two overs. Or do...

Re: Queens against a seemingly okay player

You don't say how many players, but even 10 handed, what are you afraid of? AA and KK re-raise you before the flop so the only thing that beats you is 77 and one instance of 22. I say re-raise the...

Re: Flopped two pair from the BB against a maniac

This is a little over my normal limit. Does villain call a pot sized bet on the turn with just a flush draw? Maybe I'm seeing monsters, but I would be more worried about 67s. Also I bet out the...

Re: did I push incorrectly?

Would anyone check the flop and bet/raise a blank turn? Or is that just stupid (weak-tight)? I play the $100 buyin NL at Commerce and lose most of my money with 2 pair hands.

Re: Standard $100NL hand - drawing to straight

I don't think I'd pot the river unless I felt I could sell Villain on a busted flush draw bluff, in which case I'd slightly over bet the pot. Villain has $81 left, so I'd go $45 or $50. But more...

Re: Someone suggested I limp UTG with AQ

[ QUOTE ]
I should add that in small stakes No Limit Hold'em, folding AQo UTG and UTG+1 in full ring is certainly not awful, and will likely save money for the majority of players.

Re: Man berating old lady at table

Probably a -EV move for the game, but a +EV move in terms of getting into heaven.*

Re: Commerce in LA - first live play

<cough> $3 drop each hand?

Well, I lost more than I should have with that drop. LOL I think it had more to do with the much lower implied odds in limit vs NL.

Re: Commerce in LA - first live play

I play the $100 buyin no limit game. I used to play 2-4 limit but for whatever reason I couldn't beat it. The NL game is very soft though (I've only played on weekends for about the last 4-6...
