Re: Need advice on moving up.....

I think that when you start thinking of your winning and losing streaks in terms of Big Bets instead of $$$, that you are ready to move up. Provided, of course, that you have a substantial bankroll,...

Re: AQo in a Capped PF - How Would You Play This Differently?

My fault. I agree with you. I must say, however, that I would find it hard not to lay down KK on the flop for just 1 bet, especially at a lose table. One of those idiots has Ax.

Re: AQo in a Capped PF - How Would You Play This Differently?

KK at a loose table is NOT an easy pre-flop fold, even if it means calling 4 bets cold.

Re: Am I too afraid of the suck out??

Tough call, IMO. I don't think that you are wrong either way, but with that board he easily could have had a weak ace or king as well as a flush or gutshot draw, so in this case I think I bet. If I...

Re: AQo in a Capped PF - How Would You Play This Differently?

I would have EASILY mucked preflop after I got reraised twice. What could they possibly have? AA, KK, QQ, AKs, AK, none of which are good news for you.

That said, with 2 aces hitting the flop, I...

Could I have extracted more from this guy?

I think I played this hand OK, but am wondering if anyone would have played it differently, i.e. check raised the river.

Re: who goes back for more?

Sometimes you make a good hand and get beat by a better one. I don't think you did anything that horrible here, other than running into a bigger set /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Re: who goes back for more?

re-reraise. If he plays back at you I think you have to call, and are probably looking at 66 or JJ or (hoepfully), 22 or the nut flush.

Re: Blind defense with 76o

Re-raise preflop. That will make him think twice about whether or not he should try to pimp your BB.

Re: For anyone who has PokerTracker...

Does Ptracker know not to double up the same hands? (i.e. if you download the same hand twice?)

How many hands should I have under my belt before......

I just started using Poketracker. How many hands do I need before I can can accurately assess my hourly rate and contemplate moving up? 10,000? 50,000? 100,000?

Re: who takes the free card?

I think you have to bet as you probably have the best hand. If you didn't, you would have heard about it when the turn hit (or if you get c/r'd). If he is on the nut flush draw (or made it), he has...

Re: QQ checking the turn

Bet the turn. Maybe you win it right there. If you get check-raised then you know you are beat and can lay it down. If they are still around they either have you beat or they are drawing without...

Ax, Q7s, completing SB with anything

A friend has played twice at a live 3/6, and thinks I am a fool for advising him to stay away from playing ace-rag, any suited cards completing the small blind with ANYTHING and the like. He...

Re: Having a hard time laying down my high pocket pairs twice

I agree. You know you are beat in hand 1, but you have to call at that point IMO. (Unless you think he may be on a bluff, than reraise his ass).

What could he have in hand 2 that he would cap...

Re: MajorKong is my co-pilot

IMO, there is no way you lay that down. Most Party LL tables are loosey goosey, so you have to assume others will limp behind you. I'd rather get in for only 1 bet, but the fact that a player in MP...

Major Leak: How to play AK when you miss the flop

I usually play 1/2 at Party, and the games are usually loose. Often I will raise with AK. If the flop comes J64r, what is the proper play? If I am in EP do I bet it trying to represent that the...

Re: Top pair, horrible kicker

I agree that this hand is tricky. I think more than anything else in this situation you need some sort of read on your opponent. What would he limp in LP with? Is he loose enough to play K8? ...

Re: Bet the river? Call the river? Fold the river?

I check/fold here. MP may try to bluff and if he does, good for him, he can have the 3 BB.

Re: Set of Jacks in trouble

IMO MP either has no tens, or has 2 of them. I think I call it down here, as getting raised would make me throw up.

Re: I feel like a fish

The only fish move here is maybe calling the flop, but I think (as stated in the "Quiz" earlier in the week) at a loose low-limit table, this is a must call, as you have the nut flush draw and the...

Re: Open raising with QJo, hit flop hard but he keeps coming

My fault. I just looked at the flop and assume he flopped a pair with the nut flush draw which would justify his flop bet and him leading out on the turn. After that I just zoned out apparently. I...
