If folding this is weak, I don't wanna be strong!

Seriously, a flush draw on the board and a pair of 9s (a card people play w/a K,J,Q,A, etc) and 5 players in the hand. I think people w/ at least...

Re: Weak queen, small pot.

As a newbie, I'm suprised to read everyone fold TPNK so easily.

Yes, you have no kicker, but you have 5 outs, and possibly the best hand right now. I don't see how you can lay this down on the...

Re: Does anyone here actually beat PP .5/1 consistently for alot???

Q) Can people beat .5/1?
A) yes! I'm not a pro by any means, I've only been playing 6 months. After 30k hands at .5/1 I am 2.3BB/100. That's nothing special, but my last 15K hands (after I actually...

Often I will dump this hand PF, but the table was quite passive, with little raising pre-flop. BB seems fairly average through 3 orbits, not especially loose or tight (28 VPIP after 32...

I don't think you can bet that river. And you should raise preflop even if UTG1 is tight. You will get cold-calls from loose players behind or get a chance to get this short-handed.
