Re: Can\'t stop the spew.

In the second hand, why would you check the flop? With 2 diamonds on the board, don't you want to have him raise you and push out the other two (or at least pay 2 bets for their draw)? Plus, if he...

Another Poker Room Question

So I cashed in 1000 points for a "$10 bonus package" in their Player Points Retribution offer. However, it didn't add $10 to my account balance. Under "Account Bonuses", it shows $10 Bonus Dollar...

Question re: Poker Room Bonuses

I've been clearing the sign-up bonus which requires 2000 points for $200 (pretty slow-going at 1-2). In addition to my sign-up, it says I am also eligible for Player Points Retribution, with a $10...

Re: Silly? Or okay?

Nobody wants to hear about PF, but chances are you should fold if this is a typical line of action on this table PF (raisers and no callers).

I'd like your flop line a lot better if BB had folded...

Re: I hate getting CR\'ed on the river

What beats you? He doesn't have TT+, He doesn't have 44, 66,99 or 88. He doesn't have J8. Do you think he has QT, 98, or runner runner flush more than 12.5% of the time? Pay him off, lose, and...

Re: Palm Springs Advice?

Thanks - anyone know what the rake is there? Do they also take out for a jackpot?

Palm Springs Advice?

I'm going to be in Palm Springs for an afternoon in a couple weeks and wondered if anyone had any recommendations. I assume Morongo is the best place to play there (unless someone knows something to...

Re: AQ

There are no .50-$1 Party players who are ever going to fold QQ heads up, no matter what the board or action is (moreover, they probably shouldn't).

We split with AQ and are behind every other...

Re: How would you play this?

Clearly I'm an idiot, but a turn check raise seems bad to me. I think we're likely ahead, but our hand is very vulnerable and you've got two guys who see the 3 suited board and don't seem to want to...

Re: welcome to the rock.

If you really believe your stats, logic says you should probably fold, but emotion, boredom and statistical margin of era may lead you to act otherwise.

As a meaningless aside, if you decide to...

PF Raise and Continuation Bet from BB

In SSH, they indicate that failing to raise hands like AJs from the blinds with 3-4 limpers is a massive leak. They argue that your equity edge is too large with a hand like that to wait for the...

Re: A6s and middle pair, raggedy board

I think this is very read-dependent. If you think the CO is the type to raise overs AND check the turn unimproved for the free card, then this is a good play. Otherwise, I'd probably check fold the...

A whole bunch of AKs hands

Re: Is it possible to fold a flush on the river in a big pot?

UTG had fours over queens.
CO had jacks over queens.
I had a headache.

Re: Is it possible to fold a flush on the river in a big pot?

Not to be results oriented by the way, but both of them had full houses (who doesn't raise JJ PF?), so I was ahead on the turn and the 3bet was correct.

Re: Is it possible to fold a flush on the river in a big pot?

My question was more about the river than the turn - the 3-bet on the turn is questionable on my part, but I had my reasons (as stated above).

After the river cap, I guess the question boils down...

Re: Is it possible to fold a flush on the river in a big pot?

I 3-bet the turn because I figured CO had the A of hearts and I wanted to charge his draw (at least that's what I thought he had until the river), while I figured it was at least 50-50 between me and...

Re: Down to three & big stack called my bet

Pot-size may seem off in converter because we were probably anteing at this point.

With this villain, I felt extremely confident that he would check PF unless he had a huge hand, in which case I...

Re: how badly did I play this 1/2 NL live cash game hand ? thanks guys!

This is 1/2 no limit live (live being key), and villain has pocket aces. Villain is about 90 percent to call a push. Not saying that pushing here is the wrong move, I think its probably...
