Turn check raise
Not much knowon on the button, except that when he re-raised earlier, he had AKs. He has never contested me on my raise before, as I have been pretty aggro, and he also never flat called my raise. ...

Trouble in early position
The game is the Wynn 4/8, 9 handed. I often have trouble with these kinds of hands. I used to fire fire fire, and now I don't know if that is the best course of action. A raise preflop in these...

A KK hand
SAo, I have been trying to experiment with check raising, and it seems that against the average player, if you raise PF and get it heads-up, that you can bet the flop, and no matter what comes on the...

Re: General question
I have read all the books. But, I just have trouble on this one issue, particularly as I am new to 6 max. I usually do post hands, and do use those other factors.

MP is passive, with a .5 rating. In this particular hand, I check raised the flop, with all intentions of check-raising the turn again and leading the river. I felt that if...

Re: Movin on up
Actually, I am being bankrolled, so the bank roll isn't a problem. The idea was to play 1/2 until I had the hang of 6 max.

Re: Live 1/2 NL
I like what you are saying, about PF folding. However, I just can't agree. In a normal game, I would. However, here, position is somewhat lessened, as there is a lot of limping, and a lot of them...

True, however, this is not a reasonable player. While he can fold a little more than others, he still calls incorrectly, and I have seen him bet out with top pair bad kicker often. That is why I...
