Re: \"Official\" ESPN Coverage of WSOP Main Event: Final Table

I agree, except I'd chalk it up more to making exciting TV rather than not knowing anything about tournament poker.

K4/5/6/7s and AA are also possible though less likely.

Villain could well have 99-QQ. If we reraise then villain might be able to get away from those hands, and thus not be able to bluff off his money on turn and river with hardly any outs.

Re: Right to cap the flop here?

(You 3-bet the flop, you didn't cap it.)

You've got a great draw and plenty of callers, so 3-betting here is great. Odds are that most of the people caught in between will come along, and it gives...

Re: Tight Agressive Passive for low limits?

Even if your play has no effect on being outdrawn, it's a mistake to be passive because you *might* be outdrawn on. When you make them put more money in the pot, some percentage of that money is...

Re: Some i fear bad played hands...

Hand #1 seems fine. I like the C/R, because if CO has AK then he'll probably bet but not raise. Overall he'll raise with the hands you're afraid of but just call with the hands you're ahead of.

Re: Plugging leaks or creating them on river aggression

I agree that this is an easy bet. With 3 or 4 opponents I'd be pretty cautious, but with 2 it's definitely worth a bet.

I can't imagine 3-betting though without a specific read, though. You're...

He keeps raising preflop

This was the 4th hand after I sat down at this table, and this player raised every one of them. The first time, he bet the flop, and then folded to a turn bet. He won the other 2 without showing.

Re: QJo in the BB, passive table.

QJo is way too mediocre of a hand to raise with, especially in BB, where you won't usually knock anybody out (present hand excepted) and you're in bad position for the rest of the hand.

That river could give someone a runner-runner gutshot straight. Possible, but not very likely. Going into check/call mode here is very weak.

Re: KJo UTG - How many mistakes did I make?

PF - you already know, bad call.

Flop - The raise is fine. Very few hands will fold to your raise, that's OK. The point is that you probably have the best hand at this point.

Turn - You played...

Re: couple of troublesome hands

You weren't too aggressive, because you met no resistance. Keep betting if you think you have the best hand, which is obviously the case on the flop and the turn.

On the river, when an overcard...
