Re: Putting a bad beat on someone and ETIQUETTE
These are all interesting/funny replies, but for some reason I can't bring myself to say something like that to a player I play against often. It seems I've always believed that you should always be...

Re: Putting a bad beat on someone and ETIQUETTE
That's what I'd say at the Taj or some other B&M, but my opponent was a regular at this home game and that comment probably wouldn't have helped me much.
But I do like the comment and it's what I...

Putting a bad beat on someone and ETIQUETTE
I was playing 3-6 last night when the following hand came up:
The game was six handed. I get Ts4s in the SB. It's raised by an MP and an LP makes it 9. I'm getting kind of bored with my crappy...

Re: Raise it up!
Well James, I agree that if you're playing in a game where people are limping in with trash (i.e. the pink game) then the QJ raise is a good one. But I'm not raising OR limping QJo in EP in the...

Re: ATs UTG -- limp or raise?
If the game is semi-loose, semi-passive, I think I'd limp with ATs. You want lots of players to see the flop with you, and if it's passive, you can be confident it won't be raised behind you.
If...

Re: One Year of Poker
I tried UltimateBet a few weeks ago and I didn't like it at all. The games were very tight, even tighter than Paradise. And the site and software are poor. Also, they use a round table instead of an...

Re: KK hand - comments please
I prefer to raise the flop--it's a quick and cheap way to find out what he's working with (whether he has a 6 or a 4 or some other pocket pair).

Re: Weak fold?
Your pre-flop play is fine.
This is a bad fold. Mathematically speaking, the BB is more likely to have a Q than a 9, and if he had AQ, he probably would have raised. If he has KQ, you'll split. If...

Re: 99 in mid position
I think I would have made it 4 bets on the turn. I believe you've got the better hand. He didn't raise preflop so KK and QQ are unlikely.
Though he might have JT. But you can't assume he has the...

Re: Ducks
I'd prefer to raise the flop because of the straight draw--you want to make the others pay for their draw.

Re: I\'m going to Vegas!
Does either room have a 5-10? Maybe I'll be ready to play 6-12 by then. 5-10 is what I usually play in a B&M.

Re: when to \"get involved\"
Many players would be inclined to bet this turn due to their flop aggression. One must realize that very few opponents will fold to a single turn bet. Then if a blank hits on the river, you run a...
