Re: 5 hands - Common WTSD% Theme
1: Dubious call down against this type of player. He probably does not expect you to fold R, in which case you are beat.
2: Bet turn and call a raise. Best 2nd pair is a strong holding in the steal...

Re: River decision with overpair.
I may not have attached enough weight to the river bet. As well as non-flush draws and bluffs I was treating a pocket pair up to 99 as possible (JJ wd presumably 3bet PF). Would he valuebet these? I...

Re: River decision with overpair.
Clear to call, I think. Chances of winning this hand against a laggish 15 player are no worse than 9/1 and probably more like 6or7/1. And you get some info. The metagame advantage of being seen to be...

Re: Flopped idiot straight with str flush redraw
A lot of results-orientated stuff on the river bet. An overcall is good. You cannot place SB on a strong made hand. He played his ignorant straight on the flop and turn very strangely. He led the...

Re: Who caps this preflop?
same hand, different point: 99 UTG in an 8-handed Party 15/30 game with 2 or 3 wild men - you limp - folded to wildman on button who 2bets - BB (not wild, tight-ish stats) 3bets. Fold, call or cap?...

Re: Hand VS. Two Uber Calling Stations
I would guess that Nick's hand is high for the moment quite a lot of the time - maybe 50-60% at least. A low-enabling card gives him scoop possibilities. I would bet this turn for value and to charge...

Re: A couple 08 hands from today
Great post, Buzz, on Hand 1 and why it is desirable to bet scareflops like this one in MP. Presumably you fold to a raise from any player meriting the description "tight/predictable" (Rare birds in...

Re: Fold the overpair?
'Good' laydowns in this sort of position are why 'good' players make less on PP than they should. You are getting 9-1 on JJ, ATs, some other random PP, a flushdraw semibluff, and - horrors - a cold...

Re: Easy fold on the flop with overpair?
Cap flop, not call. 1SB a sensible investment - will clarify whether LP is mucking around and (when he leads or checks on turn) BB's position. If LP folds flop and BB checks turn, check behind and...

Re: Live 30/60 Hand
FWIW!!!! and to return your courtesy.
On hand 1, absent a maniac read, I put BB on a 5. You have led when an Ace comes into 3 callers, having raised PF. You strongly rate to have an Ace - or a...

Re: AA from blinds with threatening flop
No doubt you are correct.
But I am not sure it is quite so clear. (Put to one side the uninteresting question whether it is reasonable to slowplay preflop.)
Obviously I rate to be ahead most of...
