Re: Anyone here work in consulting?

I worked at D&T LA and wanted to work entertainment so I left for PwC LA. I think it's a good place to learn about business and to be around smart people. I think the culture at D&T is a bit more...

Re: What X\'mas gift to buy poker players?

I use my IPOD when I'm playing online or B&M. The new IPOD or even the Nano would be really cool for Christmas.

Re: Consulting Career Advice- Is My Company Shafting Me?

Hi Johnny,

I think you're making the right choice. Worked at PwC Consulting for the past 4 1/2 yrs upon graduating college. The travel was tough, but the experience was worth it. I left the...

Re: this is standard or fire a bullet OOP? KK NL200 BB

I agree with the check/fold vs. continuation bet. It's too often an ace is out, considering the strength you showed preflop. Unless a little parlay occurs, these observant opponents readily give...

Re: NL200 AK Hand

I think the call is fine. You could be ahead of a worse ace with draws to a full. I think it's unlikely for a straight to be out because of the flop bet. I would have narrowed his hand range to a...

Re: AA PF

It's not horrible. If you think this is the best way of getting aces all in preflop, do it. BTW: You want the entire table in the hand with you preflop with aces. The pot equity edge is still an...

Re: favorite meals for current/past college students

The cheapest thing at my college food court was a meal consisting of one chili dog, french fries, and small drink for $3. When I wasn't dead broke, I'd splurge.

Re: One More Preflop Poll: Raising on the Button

I'd rather have A8s vs. KTs in a multiway pot on the button, but it's close though. I like just calling w/ A8s and KTs though, raising with the rest. I'd play them the same before the flop, but the...

Re: easy fold with K-high flush?

Sorry I misread the OP. I'd call the raise though

Re: easy fold with K-high flush?

I don't like raising the river. I call the original bet looking for overcalls. If the raise comes I call the raise at the river.

By raising the river though, I'm pretty much obligated to call in...

Re: AK makes TPTK: Drawing Virtually Dead?

Is it possible that she's testing you with AQ, AJ, AT? She may be putting you on a flush draw, where she wants to make you pay to draw. There is an outside chance she could be making a play with...

Re: What did employees do before the internet?

It's not stealing from your boss. The internet is a research tool and perk in many cases. I'm a professional but I can take a break to recharge now and then.

Re: David Slansky Isn\'t That Good A Poker Writer

He wrote "Theory of Poker" and "Sklansky on Poker Theory" on different games, Stud, holdem, razz. I sense that you're joking right? Hard to read the tone in your post.

Re: Who caps this preflop?

Cap it to save time. You can't close the action anyway. Capping and calling will probably may result in a reraise behind you anyway.

Capping may knock others out. I like capping to take...

Re: Flop 2 pair and lots of action!!!

There's no chance I fold this here playing 3/6 against loose players (I assume 3/6 players are generally loose). I see it to the river and hope I have the best two pair. I might consider folding...

Re: call down with JJ?

I think the hand was well played. I like calling down here
as your opponent can have ace ten here and may play it the same way. With an 8 he may wait and raise the turn.

Re: QQ hand for review

I pay off quad kings or aces here. I can't and won't fold the hand here. I like the flop bet as you don't want to give a free card to an ace high hand. I'm probably in the minority but I don't...

Re: I Feel Uncomfortable In These Situations

I like the steal raise preflop and the auto bet on the flop. The call on the flop of the raise is good too.

I just don't feel right about calling on the turn. He took the lead on the flop and...

Re: AQo is a good hand, but.....

I'm in the minority, but I call the flop. And raise the turn if no diamond or king comes. With no read, your hand is probably best. The bettor may have a flush draw and the raiser may have a weak...

Re: I really should know what to do on this river...

If you have no read on this guy, I like a bet here to get middle pair or a pocket pair to pay off your big two pair. If he wouldn't raise with an ace anyway, fearing three jacks from you, the bet...

By the way, he showed down 5-5 and I took down the pot. Played that hand much more aggressively than I thought someone would.

Re: AQs -- huge pot, what is the right line on the turn?

I like calling on the flop, and keeping the cost of playing down. You're likely beat and possibly in two spots. A free card play won't work against a good player holding top pair. They'll either...
