Re: Ugly River Card in Big Pot Out of Position
I think the turn is the key here. You know you are ahead but if you get called there are a lot of bad cards for you. Any diamond puts the three flush, the board pairing puts a possible boat and you...

Barron,
Why should there be two standards? If anyone else posted his nonsense about taking their ball and going home, we'd all say good riddance.

Re: collusion or utter stupidity?
This could have been a misclick on UTG's part or perhaps he had garbage cards and was just trying to pick up the blinds and mistook the all in for something more than t185. Or perhaps he doesn't...

Another Bet size trick
I use this a different way. I'll bet odd amounts after the flop to save chips. Basically, say I'm going to bet t1000 after the flop. If I bet T919, the pile of chips looks a lot more daunting to...

Re: TV qualifier help needed
Nice reply to the nit. These sorts of tournaments will always be somewhat of a crap shoot because, as you've said, there is nothing for second place. I would look to isolate the weaker players. ...

Re: Hows this river CR
Now that you're here, that 50 bet on the end begs you to push. It's the carrot on the stick you were looking for. I don't think you get that carrot without your opponent having a lower flush or set...

You have the board locked so a check will look like at least a single ace to your opponents, maybe KK. Your opponents likely have drawing hands. You need to appear to be making a probe bet here...

Re: Am I completely crazy???
This is the best play, in my opinion. You raised preflop, so he's putting you on a hand here. Thing is, if you had Ax, KK or maybe even QQ you'd look to trap. Your play looks like a medium pocket...
