Re: 10/20 or 20/40 FL at Foxwoods
The 5/10 w/ kill game is way soft. I really think the average player there is worse than the average 2/4 player online (disclamer: I only play on Saturdays.) You will get 5-6 players who see 60% of...

Anybody use macpoker pro?
I play on pokerroom.com, their non-download version. Pokertracker doesn't work on nonwindows machines, but there seems to be another program "macpoker pro" that is similar and works for people in my...

Re: JJ
What is a good turn in this situation? Any overcard, club, 8, 9, or 4 is going to be scary. that's like, 30 cards. Also, there are three people behind hero, and hero cannot protect against any...

Re: J10 suited UTG
I've never heard this argument before and I am wondering if other people agree. Is it a good idea to artificially increase your pot odds? I mean, can it be right to make a mistake now to make later...

Re: hands where you don\'t raise AKo preflop
While I cannot say that I agree with your choice of play, I must commend two things about your post. 1) glib mockery has reached epidemic proportions in this forum (my number of posts doesn't...

Re: The weekly standard?
I'm not sure I like this, and I would like to hear a little more of your thought process. The statement "he is poor postflop" could mean a lot of things. If you hit an ace, you almost commit...

Re: J9s Might be interesting
I hate to be weak, but this seems like a bad spot to try and buy it. Is anyone else worried that the villian is (wrongly) slow-playing a K. I have seen people (not as high as 5/10 but certainly at...

QQ hand, Unexpected turn.
2/4 session at Pokerroom. I was running really well for about an hour and showing down good cards, but the MP2 only sat down about 20 minutes before this hand so who knows if he cares. MP2 seemed...

Re: Bet/Fold or Check/Fold
I agree. Not only are you bad against the likely ranges of hands, but if you bet here and get two callers, your hand becomes almost impossible to play on the turn (unless a 6 falls). Any spade or...

Re: Donked after Steal Attempt...lost
In my Pokerroom experience, people bet/3-bet the flop against a steal a hell of a lot, especially on a board like this, and often with nothing/close to nothing. I think the villian is thinking...

Re: Using a villian\'s good habits against him.
I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic or not. I don't think I would ever reccomend using this play with K high (straight bluff.) I think the best time to use it is when you have some chance of...

Re: Using a villian\'s good habits against him.
Again, I haven't tried this too often, but I would try this play with a medium Ace if I opened raised from LP and Villian was a blind. Or with higher-than-medium Ace if villian limped/called from...

Using a villian\'s good habits against him.
So I was talking with a few other players about what we know about good players (especially players who frequent these boards) and how we can use that knowledge to our advantage. We came up with...

Re: Turn Raise
This seems like a good time to attempt the semi-bluff. The interesting thing to me is what to do if you are called and you miss? Do you fire again if checked to? Do you call a donkbet on the river?

Re: Raise or Fold?
Call me weak, but I really don't understand raising out of the BB here with a middle pair. You have 7 callers, all of whom (at least in my live 4-8 experience) are going to call one more SB. You...

Re: Passive is the new aggressive
I raise the turn here. Someone may have called two bets cold pf with a 2, but not likely. You will still get called by a Q, and you probably knock out the draw to get HU. If you get 3-bet, you can...
