Re: 11: Easy fold with JJ?

Huh - surprised at the support for pushing. I fold or call. You are in decent chip position, and JJ is a risky hand to commit to preflop, particularly against two opponents with good hands.

Not that much. Sucks a 5 flopped but good fold.

$11 - How much to pay for 55

Very first game of the tournament, so no reads at all. I figure I call a small/med raise, but I don't see that my implied odds justify a call here.

Thoughts? Do I call this, or play it...

PokerTracker Help

I always record my play with PokerTracker. When I was playing limit ring games, I found this an invaluable analytic tool, and was able to plug numerous leaks.

But with tournament play, I am at a...

Re: $11--wow I won...hand question inside

Am I the only one that is still playing 99 for set value in this case? With the blinds still relatively small at a 6-handed table, I am terrified of any overcard to my 99. This is one of those...

Re: Don\'t talk

Occasionally I see one player really go after another in chat, and often the attacked player plays poorly in an attempt to show him up, or something of the kind.

Re: hesitating before acting

If this is online, I wouldn't place too much weight on this. There are too many factors that can cause a delay, like line interference, connection problems, or w/e.

Re: 44 in EP

He only got 2 callers THIS TIME. Usually on PP 0.5 every hand is 5+ callers. This is unusual.

Limp any low pocket pair, any position.

Gotta call the river. PP 0.5 - people do the darndest things, particularly on the river. I don't know how many times I've called the river, convinced that I was last of many opponents, only to find...

Impressive pot... well played! Not sure I have the balls to cap the flop, but looks like it was the correct play.

Wrong end of the straight

I knew I was vulnerable all along. Not sure what I could have done to protect myself better.

I'm thinking I should have checked the river for sure, though.

I 3-bet/cap. The guy limped from the button. Either really weak or just a crappy hand. He could have a straight or a crappy flush, a variety of other hands that would lead him to raise...

Re: A Blind steal meets resistence

I put him on AA. That's the only hand that people will always bet, even into a scary board. Villain knows he has trip aces, and that's all he cares about. He wouldn't have bet KK on the flop. AK...

Re: Was this a good check-raise opportunity after the flop?

Tarding:

I would have played it just like you did. With just three players, I see a high risk of check-through. Bet the flop.

Re: A correctly played hand?

Tarding:

Looks book-perfect. I would have bet the flop instead of c/r, but I figure c/r is the better value play if you have confidence that a bet will come.

c/r on the flop may lose you some...

Re: Call river bet w/ AKs?

Tarding:

I like the whole line. Too many opponents left to bet the turn unimproved. Somebody has at least a pair, so fold the river.
