Re: On the river in my boat
Sure, why not? On absolute hand value hero has an overboat. MP's hand range can be narrowed down to only combinations of J,T,6,5, and hero has a majority of those beat. On feel alone, I'd say he is...

Re: The river and me bitching.
This is why bet-folding the turn is a much better option. You avoid giving a free card to a hand that has a whole lot of outs to beat you, and you give up on relatively few of your own. The button...

Re: On the river in my boat
Your fold here is the antithesis of big pot strategy, and I really think that it is the worst of your 3 options. Your hand is absolutely worth a call here in this monster of a pot, and maybe even a...

Re: Like this?
I think betting this flop is certainly correct for all the reasons Jake mentioned, but also that you aren't last to act, so the bet has more credibility. I would always bet T8 or 75 here, and also...

Re: River Value Bet?
bet the river. Plenty of hands call that you beat. All kings, middle pair, and 86,65 just paired and may look you up.

Re: Sanity check
You should be betting this flop pretty frequently regardless of raising preflop. In fact, if there was no potential flush draw, I would bet this close to 100% of the time in an unraised pot,...

Re: AQ Turns 2nd pair, odd opponent action
Even with that fishy looking check, I still think you bet this flop. Having gotten to the turn in the way that you did, calling is the best play. If your opponent is betting a worse hand, he will...

Re: Middle pair + backdoor flush draw

I think the PF call is a bit thin, but I guess I'm known for playing too tight from the blinds. So one-gap suited connectors like J9 are standard BB calls against raises for everyone? I...

Re: Question on Table Selection at 2/4
Most players won't raise out of the blinds for value multiway, so a 3 bet is not a good idea. You are also unlikely to knock out anyone but the poster in this hand for 2 more. Your reasoning in the...

I like the 3 bet, but this is about the bottom range of hands with which you can do this. Your post flop play and hand reading of this player also has to be top notch, or you will definitely be...

Re: Question on Table Selection at 2/4
63k hands
38% ASF

A 31% ASF seems tighter than normal. I usually look for tables with 7BB or higher pot avg, and look for loose limping and especially loose cold calling. Hope this...

Re: Botched the flop, so go for overcalls?

Re: Botched the flop, so go for overcalls?
Raise preflop, raise the flop. On the turn, you are in a tough spot, as flush draws will gladly call two cold, but weak aces, etc. may or may not come along for the ride. I like the overcall plan...
