Re: JJ vs possible blind steal

The villian/hero caps preflop and again on the flop. The villian is passive postflop and calls it down. I wouldn't be surprised to see KK or QQ.

Re: A few hands from my first 3/6 session

[ QUOTE ]

Couldn't the preflop raiser make the same flop raise with such hands as KK, QQ, KJs, and QJs?

Yes it is possible. But it seems that most small limit...

Re: Correct play heads-up?

I think the SB over played his hand (except on the river) and got lucky.

Re: A few hands from my first 3/6 session

Hand 1: on the flop I'll bet into the preflop raiser. If he raises me hopefully it'll drive out the button and I'll call and check/fold the turn unless a 6 comes.

Hand 2: I'd just call the river.

Re: Iso with 66

Bet it but be prepared to fold to a check/raise. And if he just calls your turn bet then check on the river.

I'd play it the same, call the turn and river. And then get shown a boat and say to myself "obviously...".

Re: 97o - Standard?

Not usually. Couple of gin and tonics though and I'll pop him on the turn.

Re: open raised 66 in MP2

I just learned about "Clarkmeister's Therom" two days ago. Isn't this a situation in which to apply it?

Re: 3 bet, call, or fold?

#1 is a fairly easy fold
#2: I said call but given the circumstances/table, etc I'll sometimes 3-bet it.

Re: 44 hand....I am lost

Having raised the flop I'd bet the turn. If the SB calls the bet then I'd check the river.

Re: nines unimproved against aggression on a paired board

I'd probably play it the same way. Your preflop raise and flop raise pretty much say you have a big (higher than the flop) pair. I would expect to get check/raised on the turn if he has a 6. Since...

Re: turn decision

I'd raise. If the guy has a 9 I'd expect him to try to C/R me. It's more likely that he has overcards, puts you on a flush draw (raising the flop to get a free card), and is representing that he...

Re: Telling the difference between bad play or a downswing?

I have run bad for thousands of hands, losing as much as 250% of my bankroll.

Is that a typo? Otherwise it sounds as if you're playing too large for your bankroll....

Re: Perfect slowplay opportunity?

I'd raise here. Some of the donks will call and the CO may reraise. This helps your image as they will realize that you button raise with big hands as well as others (e.g. draws). Or am I mistaken...

Re: tough QQ hand

On the flop I'd 3-bet as I think you're still ahead and want to make the draws pay.

I'd call that last bet on the river and hope it was a desparation attempt...the pot is large.

Re: AA takes heat on flop

It looks like the small blind only has a "call" button on his screen. What'd he have Jx?

Re: TT OOP...bet until he gives me reason to stop?

Sorry for the newbie questions...
1) what's a donk?
2) isn't it better to check the river (with the intent of calling any bet) to prevent getting check-raised and to induce a bluff from a hand that...

I was getting 18:1 on the call on the flop. I think I can make up enough bets on the turn and river if I spike a turn Q. Disagree?
