Re: $10+$1 Rebuy AK hand
Agree with binions here. Although I don't think throwing this hand is that difficult. We've commited very few chips to the pot so far.
Just pretend like you bet out and were raised on the flop...

Re: Best Tournaments (multi and Single)
Party continues to have the softest games at any level comparatively (ie 15/30 Stars vs 15/30 Party Poker)... at least on Bonuswhores. I'm sure this applies to tournies as well.

Re: KK shortstacked
Can't raise without pushing.
This is how I see it... It depends on how your opponents perceive you. What have you been doing up to this point? Raising a lot? Push. Limping a lot? Limp-push.

Re: $10+$1 Rebuy AK hand
The chance that the villain is attempting to steal a very mediocre sized pot with this bet is not very high.
He is unlikely to be trying to take advantage of the tightness of another player on the...

Re: Thinking ahead with continuation bets
I think JJ made somewhat of a poor play that failed to protect his hand. While I will say that he was able to get the best of it, I think it would be smarter for him to bet out the flop and take it...

Re: $10+$1 Rebuy AK hand
I certainly agree pip. The only reason I would say that this villain here raises is because of the incredible agressiveness shown on the river. I see him to be agressive, not as passive as perhaps if...

Re: $10+$1 Rebuy AK hand
He could also have a monster, like 22 55 or JJ. Calls are scary. AJ would likely not call in this situation. Neither would QQ. They should both raise, at least to find out where they are. A call...

Re: $10+$1 Rebuy AK hand
Yes I understand that, but I'd put it at the very minimum, if even that (the Harrington 10%). However, I'd lean on the side of conservative because of the fact that I've already *assumed* that this...

Re: $10+$1 Rebuy AK hand
The range of hands I would put villian on are
AK-TKs
AK-JK,
22
55
JJ
Of these, the three pairs, JK, and JKs beat AK. I would hesitate to say that JK is a real possibility because the flop...

Re: So I raised with my 77 and then
I don't think its necessarily right to devalue the 7 clubs as much as some people do. It's a possibile out, maybe not even worth a full single out, but it adds a very tiny amount of value for a...

Definitely agree to checking. If he was on some sort of club draw, he's made it. He might have had top pair weak kicker and the weak kicker was a club (or some random variety of this); and if he's...

While folding on the turn 3-bet or calling are close, folding on the river would be a much bigger mistake than any turn mistake you could make.
As for the turn, I would probably call down. His...

fold preflop to avoid these situations. You could even be behind AJ. You'll never have any idea playing this way.
