Re: i cant be ahead..........
I play this hand the exact same way with the exception of the flop, which I cap. If his turn play is the same following a flop cap, that's when I slow down and decide to just call the turn 3-bet and...

5/10 v. 10/20 Win Rate Question
Hey all -
I have played right around 10k hands at 10/20 6-max with a win rate hovering between 3.5-4 BB/100. I realize this is high, and I feel like I should be skeptical of my ability to...

I 8-table, and I got here by practicing and focusing with the addition of each new table. Also, having no overlap is HUGELY helpful if you want to keep track of the action at each table you play.

Re: Checking flop to protect hand on the turn
The point that I'm trying to make is this (and please, if I'm not making sense someone please tell me):
1) At micro limits, you are often seeing flops with 4-6 players.
2) Most of these players...

Ok, you have 77 and the flop is 632. I'm having trouble figuring out what safe card can come on the turn. A 7 is the only one I can come up with.

Re: just wanted to brag a little
It's the only $200 pot I've won in over 60k hands of playing 3/6...and it was back in 2004 - but hopefully you'll have more frequent ones than I do.

Re: Checking flop to protect hand on the turn
Betting with a small pair on a flop with undercards, if you think your opponents are likely to call, is not a good decision. You're much better off waiting until the turn, hoping to see one of the...

Re: Unsure of HU play in unraised pot
I think the check/call line is okay, but only because a lot of guys will be bluffing that river once you check trying to get you to fold. I always prefer the more aggressive play, and I think a bet...

Re: Checking flop to protect hand on the turn
Your play is correct...if you're holding 77 and the flop is 236. And even then it's a stretch. The fact is, you're the pre-flop raiser, you should be playing this flop aggressively no matter what...

Re: I have a question?\"
Honestly, losing 65 BBs is nothing. Absolutely nothing. I've lost 65 BBs in about 5 minutes - it happens. Losing 65 BBs over 10k hands doesn't really mean anything either - the fact is, there are...

Re: Poker is easy...A6 sooted
Do you even consider making the raise on the turn? I think this will likely make him fear you even more - possibly getting him to fold a pocket pair higher than your sixes.

I had been playing far too tight and passive pre-flop. I realized that, taking position into account, making isolation raises and playing more hands with big-pot potential is ultimately hugely +EV. ...
