Flush bluff 6-handed

Game is full ring but currently six-handed. SB is a goodish TAG, stats are 19/4.5/2.4 and a solid winner over 650 hands at full ring. He seems a bit on the careful side.
I have been at table for...

Re: Good bluff?

The problem is your betting doesn't really represent the Q. You flat call the flop, then make a raise on the turn. The turn doesn't complete any draws, so if villain is to believe you are raising...

Re: 2-5 live game in the ATL

Hi,
Preflop I like it. I would only raise this up (big) if several limpers were very short-stacked. Or if I was sure (given table texture) that I would get 1 caller only.

On the flop I think your...

Re: tricky good or tricky bad

In hand #2, the table was playing pretty loose preflop, moderate sized raises were routinely getting called by 2-4 players. One segment of players were raising small with legit raising hands, then...

Re: Set hand

Ok, everyone seems to hate checking the turn. Say you half-pot it on the turn, and UTG checkraises all-in. Move?

I guess I was sort of trying to induce a bet from overcards that hit on turn/river...

Re: Who calls here?

Definite call, especially the way you played it, checking the turn. You have underrepresented the strength of your hand, presumably to catch a bluff. Here it is, catch it.

FWIW I would not get...

Re: Folding overpairs post flop

Thanks for replying.
Actually in Hand 2, Villain has position on me. I am in late mid position, he is in CO. So he flat called preflop, on the flop, then raised my turn bet all-in.
There were some...

Folding overpairs post flop

Two hands where I folded my overpairs after the flop. Hand one I felt good about the fold, but hand two I felt like I might have been pushed around. Both hands are at $200NL, 1/2 blinds. I welcome...

Re: Bluffing with AA?

Thanks for the reply parttimepro.
No, I would likely not fold a set in his position, though the 1/2 pot bet would smell like a value bet that AKc could be making, or even QQQ or TTT that chose to...

Bluffing with AA?

NL ring, $200 buy-in, 1/2 blinds.
Opponent is very loose with pf calls and raises, but smarter post flop. In fact, most of table is playing very laggy preflop. He probably sees me as...

Results: Hero vs. Villain - good play by both?

OK, I guess this hand is too straightforward to elicit many differing opinions. Obviously I believe that Hero played it perfectly, my real curiosity was about Villain.

He had: 5h 5d

Hi. 10-handed NL holdem, $1 BB ($100 buy-in). Table is average to passive, everyone close to the buy-in. Players are thinking, esp. post flop, but play is loosish preflop, with ~%35 of players seeing...

Re: Advice on proving/nailing the cheat (warning:long)

We do cut the deck before dealing, and usually it is the person to the dealer's right, but sometimes it's just a random person at the table.
In another game I played in, they had the person to the...
