Completing the SB a little too much there..post some hands

[TheMainEvent]

This game is a 2/5 blind structure, correct? Def should be folding SB more often.

I'm pretty sure I have enough implied odds to call with any hand pre-flop.

Don't slowplay so much

And, why are you raising pre-flop with 96s?

I don't like the all-in with the nine-high flush. Bet, to be sure, but I think that hands like [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]Q and [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4 are going to give you trouble. When you shove all that money in, the only ones that are going to call are folks with bigger flushes, big flush draws, and trips.

why is it a problem that people will call off all their money with bigger flush draws and trips in this situation?

I'll take the flush, you can have trips and we'll do the flop push situation a few hundred times ok? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
