Re: Is it good to stay in the red zone?
This idea has nothing to do with the Gigabet thread. In Gigabet's thread, he said the gamble would not hurt you significantly, since it would bring you back down to the average stack size which...

Re: On Phil (H)
I think he called with AK because the guy (from the one previous hand I saw, go sample size!) was a complete donk, and he was trying desperately to get all his chips before someone else did. He knew...

Re: 2bb final table limping Aj ep
I think I see what you are saying. You are encouraging a bigger pot with a hand that may be a favorite over some hands people may limp. You are increasing your chance of being knocked out, but...

Re: Do you like this play from this position?
I agree that's something to worry about where a standard raise may be better. I was mostly posting in argument to those who advocate flat calling to try to get away from the bad beat :P

Re: Do you like this play from this position?
If you know he will call with much worse hands, why give him a chance to get away from a bad flop for him when you can get all his chips a much bigger percengage of the time? Also, if he has ANY...

Re: AQo hand at $20 live final table
The reason I'd like to raise without pushing is so I can possibly get away from a UTG limp trap. I'm trying to figure out if there is an amount that is big enough to not give odds, and also small...

Re: QJs help on the turn.
I was very worried about the 3-bet after I raised, and I'm not sure what I would have done in that situation. Is a fold clear, or should I be calling down?

Re: QJs help on the turn.
Well I was thinking either call in case he hit 2-pair, or raise for value since I probably still had the best hand.
I'll continue with my line after another reply or two.
