$20-40 AA huge pot
Ridiculous $20-40 game at Commerce. 6 people seeing the flop usually for two bets with all sorts of crap.
UTG (loose but very passive) limps, UTG+1 (only decent spot) raises, I 3-bet from MP with...

Chris Daddy, you nailed it. The game wasn't too aggressive preflop and the UTG+1 guy limped with JTs.

$2-4 trips with no kicker
I'm in BB and get T5 (suits unimportant). UTG and UTG+1 (both decent players) limp, two LP players (both loose-aggressive) also limp.
Flop: TT2
I bet $15, UTG+1 calls, everyone else folds.

KK hand
$1-2 game at a local casino. I'm UTG with about $120 and pick up red kings. I have the 3 players in question covered. There's a maniac to my left raising almost every pot so I limp, looking to...

Re: KK Killpot Kurse...2 30/60 hands
Hand 1, there's not much you're can do. I think if anything, you should be happy the CO was a pussy and didn't get more $$ out of you after flopping the 2nd nuts.
Hand 2, you have to bet the turn,...

Re: Being put to the test with premium hands
Actually the more I think about, you're probably less than even money in hand 3 against a good opponent. I think that hand is the most player-dependent of the 3. Against a very good player, I may...

Re: Being put to the test with premium hands
Hand 1 is a very easy call against almost any opponent. Especially on PP, a lot of people will make that play with any overpair. You're ahead 95% here.
Hand 2 is slightly tougher but you still need...

I know this isn't the place to bitch about bad beats and I'm not, I just thought this story was entertaining.
Preflop: I open raise in MP1 with 77 (suits unimportant), and a maniac just to my left...

Re: How fast should I have played this?
It seems to me that MP had a decent ace, maybe ATs or AQ. I think you should have just called the raise on the flop. Then, bet out the turn if you think MP would check, or attempt a check-raise on...

Re: Two $15-30 hands that bugged me
Cuse, I like your line of thinking. In the 2nd hand, I definitely wasn't thinking that MP1 had a flush, which was stupid because I knew for her to bet into a raiser she needed a great hand. I was...

Two $15-30 hands that bugged me
Both hands were Bellagio $15-30.
Hand 1: I'm on the button.
UTG calls, UTG+1 (very loose but very predictable postflop) calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, CO (decent player) raises, I look at 9...

Although a case can obviously be made for calling or folding, I thought with a 4-bet by a passive player and a cap by a good player, there was a very good chances aces were out there and one or both...

Folding KK preflop in a limit game
$15-30 at the Bellagio. I picked up KK on the button and was ready to throw my chips in when this happened: UTG (decent player) raised, UTG+2 (LAG) 3-bet, MP1 (tight passive) 4-bets, and CO (good...

Re: 20-40 Hand at the Commerce
I think throwing cards away in turn is generally not bad etiquette because it doesn't really change the outcome of the hand. However, in a 3-handed situation, I think throwing your hand into the muck...

I agree with both of you that a bet is in order. I bet the river, he called, and flipped over T9o for the rivered gutshot. Barry you were right, he was too scared to raise with a 9.
