Re: online 20/40 black AA on a 887, 9 turn that also completes the flu

You don't want to give a free card to any hand that contains a J, T, 6, 5, or diamond. I would check this behind never.

Re: 15/30 Flush... I hate folding for one more bet...

You don't think it's at all possible that the bet was due to the river card trashing his hand? I've seen many poor players do that before. Things like slowplaying a baby flush, and then betting out...

Re: 15/30 river decision

Read dependent is fine, but you may want to include your reads in your post.

Re: Full turn

[ QUOTE ]
If I'm ahead, he'll call a 4th bet/river. 2 more bets. If I'm behind I'll call a 5th bet/river. 3 more bets. Win 2 or lose 3. Doesn't that mean just call down?

No. If you...

Re: KQo with maniac on board

What about raising the river? It's arguable that the correct play from SB's point of view is to fold his flush if it comes 2 more back to him. If he knows hero is TAG, then his raise plus a 3-bet...

Re: online 20/40 black AA on a 887, 9 turn that also completes the flu

If you think the villain CR range here includes mostly straights/flushes, then the size of the pot dictates whether or not you can chase your 4-outer. If you think he only does this with an 8, then...

Re: when protecting the bb goes horribly wrong

I like it so far. I don't like a fold. You don't think AT or A9 is in his given range?

Re: AJo 15/30 hand

Even if I were closing the action, I'd have a hard time calling that. Since there's a high possibility of it getting 3-bet or even capped, I'd say it's an easy fold.

Re: Two hands for check-up

Hand 1: Either bet the turn or the river (or both). I think a lot of worse hands will call, ie. pocket pairs, or maybe even a pair of 5s.

Hand 2: I think it depends on how tricky you think MP is....

Re: Fairly Common Situation

If the villain is looser than you, and he's less aggressive, wouldn't a more aggressive line be better? It makes it easy to fold to resistance if he's somewhat passive. My standard line is to...

Re: Best rewards programs for credit card use?

AT&T offers a card called "AT&T Universal Card" or something like that. It's the same as the Citibank ones.

Re: KJs in the monkey house

The EV varies with the amount of bets going in, though. I do agree that being able to come in for 1-2 SB is much better than 4-5 SB, but if 4-5 SB is the only option, and it's +EV, then the OP should...

I would say playing AK vs a blind steal is quite a bit different than the situation presented. If we were to lock this game down to 1 hand then the obvious play is to make it 4 bets. The...

Re: 30/60 88 confused

To all of you who are saying fold preflop, no, no, and no. For as long as I've been on the mid-high forums, it's always been standard to open-raise 77+ from UTG.

Re: 20/40 live hands

Hand 1: Bet/call sounds good to me. I think bet/3-bet is better than check/call.

Hand 2: I like the turn play, but only if you're planning on not putting another bet into the pot. There are plenty...

Re: 15/30 AJ in SB, 3bet to isolate gone wrong

Unless MP2 is known to make ridiculous bluffs, I fold this some amount of the time.

Another note, with a PFR of 6, I don't see AQ as being unprobable and with a VPIP of 36, I don't see Q8 as...

Re: 10/20 AK preflop

I'd fold this and be sad about it.

Sorry to hijack, but what's the worst hand people would call in this situation? AKs? JJ? QQ?

Re: 15, Gurly tight, action check

Unknowns in the PP 15 play those hands, and do you think villain is capping the turn and raising the river with trips or a flush? If so, OP needs to make a note and take down a screenname.

Re: Creating Odds f or yourself with draws

1) Wrong forum.
2) Pumping a draw in a -EV manner to make your calldown +EV is not +EV in the situation you described. That's like saying, in NL, you should always raise to (your stack size) - 1 BB,...

Re: 10/20 QQ

Having the Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif means that you have a higher likely hood of having 2 clean outs if you're behind. Also, it lessens the chance of a redraw if you spike a Q. Lastly, if a 3rd...
