A crazy? proposition

What about moving all-in preflop? Seriously, the big stack has had two opportunities to raise and not chosen to do so. This behavior suggests that he is either slowplaying AA/KK or he has a weak...

Moving in on the turn

I had recently been moved to this table and didn't have any info on the villain (MP 2). I made the all-in bet on the turn thinking that my opponent probably had K,J. I figured he would have raised...

flop bet

What do you people think about the flop bet? Should I have bet less? Should I have checked? I think 250 was a good bet (obviously I should have folded to the ensuing action behind me).

Re: ICM says this is a fold. I always thought this was a push...wtf

Maybe think about folding this hand if there are four people left, but with five people left you're probably going to have to get a little lucky to strike the money. Push.

everyone else folding this hand?

[ QUOTE ]
This is a fold preflop. When you raise to 700 he should be pushing any 2. Wait for the SB to go bust and then push a lot HU and hope to get lucky.

Did I make a bet that couldn\'t win me any money?

After playing this hand I am thinking that if I was willing to risk an amount equal to my opponent's whole stack then I should have called and tried to induce him to bluff on the river. Maybe I...

Re: final table question -I had no clue what to do

I would fold. Against two callers, you have almost no shot at winning. I'd rather move in with K7 than 22 with such a small stack.

AA - How would you play this hand?

I had not seen too much preflop raising so I didn't think limping and then trying to reraise would work. Maybe I should have raised to somewhere in the neighborhood of $125. Do you like the flop...

touchy situation at the end of a tourney

I had not raised too much preflop in this shorthanded session, but I had seen the lady in the BB call a few decent-sized raises and then show a bad hand at the showdown. The lady in the BB had...

Re: Easy fold of AA here, right?

You're crushing every likely holding except for pocket tens, and you are getting better than 2:1 odds on the call. Even against a timid player I think you call every time. He might just have been...

Re: Ace rag on bubble

Push or fold are your only options. Had you seen the big stack call any all-ins earlier in the tournament? If so, what did he call with? If you haven't moved all-in much in the tournament and very...

There were four people left and you were the frontrunner to get second, but if you just sit on your stack and one of your other two opponents doubles up at some point, you're looking at playing...

Re: Heads up: There\'s got to be a much better way to play this hand

Okay. So here's the situation when I bet 450 on the flop and get called. There's 1600 in the pot. I have about 2000 left and he has 4400. The only bet that I could see making on the turn is all-in....

Re: Tough decision early in a the tournament.

I don't know why the hand didn't post correctly. Here's what happened. The MP who made the large raise had Q9 of diamonds giving her a flush draw and a gutshot straight draw. The other caller had...

Heads up: There\'s got to be a much better way to play this hand

Please let me know a better way to play this hand including approximate bet sizes you would use. My opponent seemed to be a reasonably decent player who was on the passive side.

Re: Too aggressive?

You say that the player in middle position was loose yet passive. A loose player would call your raise with any pocket pair. He might even call you with (A 7) suited. If this player has any brains...

I like it better with Qx but I still prefer a check. I think you get a lot of value HU from calling river bluffs in position. And you don't have to worry as much about draws HU.

Only three hands that you could be worried about (A-5), (4-4), and (Q-Q). His flop bet was could have been a continuation bet with any overpair, high card hand, or hand with a flush draw. When he...
