Re: Travelling to South America
bruiser-
Central/South America is such a wide range that I would think about what sort of stuff you want to be doing first and go from there.
Some suggestions:

Re: *RESULTS*
1. What is going on in the second picture?
2. Math sux, I think strassa's river plan with his stronger hands is something along the lines of:
AQ or better: pot/call.
AJ/AT: pot/fold
Ax:...

Re: *RESULTS*
I think the main problem with bluffraising any 2 is that AT/AJ are about the only strong hands that could fold. Anything bigger, he has priced himself in to call, b/c at this point he is tied/ahead...

all-in abuse at the UB 50-100 (LC)
Title pretty much says it all, i don't think i have seen such obvious abuse at these stakes. Dunno if this is of interest, at the very least it is a HU for those of you who play the game.

You are asking a few different questions here.
The simplest one is the cost of a given mistake. ...

This type of line usually means a monster or nothing. If villain is weak/straightforward, I will consider betting, but if he is tricky I definitely check.

Re: 5/10 6-max: Folding the nuts on the turn
Simple math problem.
Let's assume he always has a K.
You call and chop: you win $38.50.
You call, he hits, you pay off river: you lose $1090ish.
flush hits 9/44, so if he has the freeroll...

Re: Go Broke w/ TPTK here?

With these stacks, I probably call and check-call the rest on the turn. I think he is gonna bet it. If you c/r push the flop, he will fold most of...

Re: Under-full, too much action?
Everyone has missed a key point here.
Villain 2's play screams flush, he is LAG, and he has called off $880 so far.
If you are going to play, you MUST set villain 2 all in. You pretty much...

Re: Turn min-raises are the suck. 600 nl
Oh man, what a horrible line. Any of the following are better:

2. Call flop, raise bigger on a blank turn.
3. Call flop, call blank...

Re: 10/20NL: Mistake gets QQ in trouble

Re: 10/20: Bottom set river action

Hard to say what he is betting that he pays you off with, given his line. Q9 or T9, maybe? That is about it, and those hands might fold with the flush getting there. On the other hand,...

Re: How do you handle a mini-raise with TPTK?
Bah, these replies suck.
OK, so he is super tight-passive preflop, so there is a decent chance he has a set. But:
1. Your hand is toward the upper end of your hand range here. Villain could...

Re: 5-10 -- passive with an overpair
