Re: Anemic teenage ghostboy hand

I'm the kid in the hand. I always get comments/looks etc because i look so young, but you push too far. It almost seems like malice is intended.

Anyway, onto the hand. Your cold cap was very...

Re: 80/160 - 150/300 Vegas games

Thanks for the responses so far. I have a few more specific questions though;

AA vs LoisLane and Erik1234

The donator just left the table and Erik1234 took his seat, obviously this is my last orbit at the table. For those that don't know, Erik is a force to be reckoned with and Lois isn't that great, but...

Raise-fold preflop

Just want to get a bearing for this.

What hands do you fold after openraising UTG and

a) tight player(25/15) 3bets you UTG+1 then a lag(40/30) caps on the Button?

b) a lag 3bets you and...

Re: 1/2 KQo

I bet here, mainly because the hand ranges for everyone are so huge, and it will define MP's/CO's hands. FWIW i don't think CO is that solid. I have him as 39/24/2.56 @ 5.4 avg players sitting.

River fold.

Villian is a very solid 24/17/2.2ish player, i haven't seen him get out of line at all yet. UTG+2 is a psycho LAG, don't mind him.

Re: A2s from SB

Come one more people respond. How bad is the flat call from the SB? Is it even wrong at all?

This hand is an example from Barry Greenstein's new book.

Re: 30/60 River Raise/Fold-to-3bet

I think you can judge the opponent on stats. I just feel that an opponent with these stats wouldn't get out of line on the river for a 3bet very often, so thats not much of a worry. In any case, if...
