Re: A7s vs the Donk Check
I tried thinking about what hands this player might have but I think its pointless. You say he's bad. So sometimes he's going to be hard to read and do confusing things.
So:
Don't think, just...

Re: Be a winner at hold\'em!
I can see where Ken Warren is going, but it doesn't make any sense. You should always choose the best decision in terms of EV. It doesn't matter who you are playing against.

Re: AKs...a bad flop fold?
If you knew you were only going to pay 2 SBs to see the turn you could call. Since it is very likely you are going to pay more than 2 SBs you can't call. Your hand is too weak to risk it. NH

Re: TT gets capped.
This thread has been really informative for me.
I typically play too aggressively in spots like these.
I am afraid of folding to a hand like AK, so I make a test raise on the flop, even...

Re: mid pair HU vs BB aggressor
I'd like Shillx's view on this, but I'll take a shot at it.
I get the feeling villain has overcards or has a big hand. If he has overs he his likely to put another bet in on the turn if we just...

Re: AQs
So you think our opponents are playing weak hands aggressively (on this ragged flop) to try to push us out? There are very few reasonable hands that hit this flop.
Sometimes I see aggressive...

Re: results
There is no way a worse hand is calling so there is no value in betting. If you put him on a overs or a PP worse than yours then you should not bet.

Re: KQs
Your flop call was fine. You have a nut BDFD and a nut GS draw. You can definitely take a card off w/ implied odds.
I'm tempted to 3-bet the river because it really looks like the button is...

Re: Confused
I 3-bet the flop if SB is a loose preflop raiser. I think calling the flop and turn is ok if he is typical. I'm afraid of AA-QQ here.
Easy river fold when SB raises.
Did you get caught in the...

Re: AKs
When a typical player C/Rs like that I'm going to just call it down. He might be playing a K weird but most of the time he has the 8.

Re: turn
I think getting C/R'd here is very bad. I check the turn and call the river if it isn't another broadway.

Re: mid pair HU vs BB aggressor
This is tough situation. You are either WB, or not that far ahead (he has overs).
I think waitng to raise is the best line. Your pot equity goes way up on the turn if he just has overs. If the...

But no one is going to fold and your opponents will...

Re: i suck. underpairs suck too.
The mistake I would make in this hand is trying to get villian to fold a Q or J on the river, if the board looks favorable.
I need to realize that most opponents aren't going to fold a pair HU.

Re: results
I would of played it like you did.
If the river is a brick then I might bet hoping to fold a better pair + busted straight draw.

Aren't you still going to have trouble picking up bets from a very tight player on the turn?
If he doesn't like this flop enough to call a SB, what could come on the turn that would cause him to...

Re: Overpair vs. a Raise on the Turn
I'm just calling this down.
With all the aggression preflop and on the flop, it looks like you're up against a big PP, and you only win against QQ.

Re: Ok to Slowplay TPTK against One Player?
I don't think TP is ever strong enough to slowplay. Your opponent might have something like a GS on this board. Or he could pick up a strong draw on the turn, or make two pair on the turn, etc. ...

Re: River play?
Most of the time you're either chopping or losing here so there is no value in raising.
Get your barf bag ready, then call.

The good player isn't putting any more money into the pot w/ an...

Re: Hmmmmmm indeed
B)
Raising right now will get him to fold an underpair that might draw out on you on the river. If you call the turn he must put you on an ace, and he is unlikely to pay off on the river with an...
