Re: Party 2K - Playing with 75 BB stack
If you have an edge in the game, you should have the full amount of chips to cover your opponents. The value you are losing will be whatever your opponent has left after you win an all-in hand.

Re: 5-10 NL Hand at the Wynn
What hand range can you put the reraiser on? If he hasn't shown down a hand, how confident are you that JJ, TT and AK are in his range? I fold and take a walk for playing QQ that way.

Re: how to play it? 10/20NL shortahanded table
You probably have the best hand (you're a dog to TT). I would play it that way. How would you play top (nut) set on a draw heavy board? Play this the same way. Check-raise, lead into the preflop...

Re: My moving up story...
I've found that play at Party/Eurobet differs greatly from UB. 2/4 UB is nothing like 400NL at Eurobet in my experience. I'm not suggesting that one is easier than the other, I'm just warning that...

Re: 2-5 NL how did I play this
stack sizes? could be brilliant if you have folding equity.
You mentioned that he knows how to fold, so I assume you're attempting to represent JJ. Good play if you both have a lot of chips.

Re: A read on the average $3/6 NLHE player
Perhaps you're right. Against good players, it is very hard to put them on a hand. The same goes for bad players.
The difficult part for me is that I run into both great players and newbies...

A read on the average $3/6 NLHE player
My reads have been off lately so I'd like a little feedback.
It doesn't matter what I have or how the hand ends. I'd like to hear what range of hands you put this player on. I have no read on...

Re: How Could He Make The River Call?
The $70 flop bet followed by the $120 turn bet would make me think 54 is good too. I would think an overpair or TT would want to make a draw pay. The river doesn't seem to change anything. I've...

Re: 2/4 NL Small Pot Hand
Her lead on the turn is wildy suspicious to me. I think she is block-betting or is hoping for you to raise. If you're willing to call $40-$50 on the river, I'd raise to $80-$100 on the turn and...

I would've wanted more money in on the flop. Why do you think he raised? Sure, he could have a vulnerable hand and wants to gain information by raising you and he may fold, but he may also have a...

Re: 5/10 NL on UB - JT on the JJ5 flop
This smells like a pocket pair to me. The big turn bet was a result of his flop information bet not being raised. SB wouldn't lead out with a Jack on the flop would he? Perhaps A2. I think UTG+1...

AK at final table
At the final table, you're 3rd in chips and in middle position with AK. UTG raises a third of your stack and has you covered. The blinds are $6K/12, his raise is to $96K and you have $230K There...

A couple things. Raising sufficiently before the flop is another way to make draws pay. Why not make suited connectors pay to see the flop when you're holding a big ace?
Overbetting the pot is a...

I have had the same experience (except at lower limits than 5/10). Short-handed play is much more profitable for me. It is also more fun because you play more hands.
