Re: The ole\' 4-bet, fold to a 5-bet
I'm not sure I'll hit 50,000 hands this year (I play mostly live, and the online I do play is 1 to 2 tables shorthanded). I think The Metetron and MicroBob played more hands than this in the last 3...

"It's okay and normal to be unprepared to play when you have pocket kings and you make kings full and somebody else is raising too."
Unprepared is an understatement. I had never lost quads over...

Re: The ole\' 4-bet, fold to a 5-bet
"why on earth did you four bet that hand"
I thought A2 was still in his range. For what it's worth, after the hand he told his buddy "I don't think I needed that extra 2", so he had me on AK, and...

an objective look at the hand
First of all, I did not fold, though I thought about it.
Let's say that the only hands he could have are AA, A2, and 22. He would only play AA this way 10% of the time preflop, but A2 and 22 he...

The ole\' 4-bet, fold to a 5-bet
Commerce 40/80
Button is relatively unknown to me, but has been quiet. BB is a regular who is sorta tight, not very aggressive, the kind of guy you raise the turn when you have 2pair+ and he...

I raised the river, he paused. He types "10zs?", then "nice hand" and I'm like OMG he's going to fold an 8 here. He calls and shows A8, taking the pot. A few seconds later he says "wtf?" (must...

Re: Semibluff sniffs out slowplayer (PS 30/60)
I agree that raising the flop here is the textbook play. I didn't do it because I knew the SB was FOS and I wanted him to keep coming. The perfect situation would be if he bets the turn and it's...

Semibluff sniffs out slowplayer (PS 30/60)
Villian is Kingztown for those who play the game. He is 42/16/1.8, kinda spazzy but likes to check-call/check-raise his big hands - a reasonable strategy for someone who is playing crap and...

Re: Blind Battles: Hand #9
LOL you replied 1 minute after I posted. There's kind of a dance here, where I am going to showdowns, so good TAGs are *not* betting KQ on the turn, except then they bet their Ace and I fold so now...

Re: Blind Battles: Hand #9
I think A36 I am checkcalling the flop for sure, as I do that with Aces OOP all the time (assuming that if I know the BB is a good TAG, he knows me too). If he wants to bet the turn again I probably...

Re: J4o
What would be the minimum hand you raise with pf in your situation? I raise pretty much 100% of the time when folded to me in the CO as a poster.
You have position though so I'd raise the flop. ...

Re: The toughness of games at absolute
I can only speak for the 25-50 game, but it is bad most of the time except for when it's really really good. Basically if there's a name you don't recognize, it's worth taking a look.
But it...

What about the rest of the hand?
OK even I admit that the fold looks bad when reading it. I went back just now and looked, over 162 hands this guy has a 0.38AF on the river (1.14 overall). This particular site does not allow PT...

Giving away the store (30/60)
Villian is 22/17, all 6-max hands, so basic TAG on the tight side preflop. Postflop I have him labeled as safe, doesn't cause trouble. *But*, he is stuck, I am running good, and I have been...

Whoa slow down there...(ok just kidding)
I like this hand a lot, except maybe the cold call in the SB. Yes, when an Ace flops, it makes it easier to play, but you...

Re: Video TStone coached me on - Part 2
It does not look like you are taking notes on anyone? In an early hand you got donkbet twice by 56 on a 78Q board, you folded, and he showed. That tells you a lot about the motivations of that...

Re: 150/300 hand
Versus that player, with your hand, I think your plan should be to cause more trouble on a flop that allows you to do so.
River - Guys like him will check behind with some hands that beat you,...

Re: KQo. PARTY 1/2. RIVER.
He could be checkraising a made flush, but that's ok, I think betfolding edges out checking behind with bet-calling the show horse (bet-raise never got out of the gate). If he's taking a shot he's...
