The art of min betting
My experience with this has mainly come from playing the Rounders series at Royal Vegas, don't know if this is prevalent at other sites.
Anyhow, I've noticed that people have been using min bets...

Re: Tricky play with middle set
What do you put UTG+1 on since he cold called again on the turn? I mean I already "showed" that I'm pot committed by betting over half of my remaining stack.
But I guess the general line is to...

Re: What about playing as the villain?
Yeah, playing an under pair like the villain did is bad because there are a greater range of hands that could beat his hand. However, by how things occurred on the turn, he could still have a...

What about playing as the villain?
Say you're the guy with the black 7's. How do you play this hand? How would you play a black over pair?
Okay, we agree the preflop play is terrible. Should have raised more or maybe smooth...

Playing a 3 to the same suit flop
Still early in the tourney with deep stacks. Skill level could be suspect because of low buyin. Minimal reads.
4 to the flop in an unraised pot including MP, button and both blinds.

Re: Easy push?
The bet ahead of our guy was 750 with him holding 1000, so a stop-n-go is clearly out of the question.
This is pretty much an auto push here although you're likely walking into at best a coin flip...

Re: What\'s the right play here?
I think folding to the min raise is too weak.
Assume that he is holding AK, which appears to be most likely (I don't think he had A /images/graemlins/club.gifK /images/graemlins/club.gif because...

Re: What\'s the right play here?
Sam, I think what you said is about right. But what do you make of the min-raise on the flop and all-in on the turn? From my read, this guy didn't appear to be a tricky player. Do you actually put...

Re: Should I call here? I\'m on the button!
Woodguy, I believe the hero in this case was on the button, which means she had the 76o.
I also dislike the min raise on the turn and terribly dislike the call after the opponent's reraise. Your...
