While I certainly do NOT argue with anyone advocating a push here, there is another play that could be better --

Calling, and then pushing the flop is not a bad option, if overcards to...

Re: Coin flip middle of a tourney, do you take it?

[ QUOTE ]
Your tournament situation dictates that you look for a "coin flip" - you're below average stack and M is 10ish. But if I'm going to flip I either want the heavy end of the coin, some fold...

Re: QQ OOP vs loose-ish table (attn: -Skeme-)

Betting out I think was the best action, though I would likely be paying off on the turn. Not to be results oriented, but I would have lost a lot more had I played more aggressively. I...

After MP2 calls the flop I figure I'm ahead and he'll likely fold to a turn bet. So I got cute and wanted to induce a bluff on the river. Then when I improve to two pair and he...

Correct to peel one off looking for 2-outer?

9-handed B & M $3/$6. Typical loose table, 6 to a flop is standard, players cold-call pre-flop raises with the same hands they limp with. They go way too far with only small pieces of the flop -- The...

Re: how do you play these hands?

Hand 1: I would wait for the turn to raise. Protect your hand.
Hand 2: Why check the turn? You've no reason to believe that your hand is no longer good. Bet the turn. If opponents are on draws, they...

Re: AQ in HUGE pot - any way to win this pot?

i don't assume two pair straight or trips based on one bet. but the flop is connected and the pot is very multiway. that dramatically increases the risk to be up against a good hand.

Re: 92.7% sure that my hand is best, but is a call more profitable?

Call hoping for overcalls. It's really unlikely anyone has a K or J here, so who would call a raise?

Re: When to let off with AK?

How does everyone feel about the cap? Given that MP1 called, I'm not sure CO's 3bet is just a "my hand is too good to fold" type of raise. If this was suited I would re-raise, here I prefer to just...
