My biggest mistake was sitting in a 30/60 game on Stars with a bankroll of $500 whilst I was still a 3/6 player on Party.

Similarly, my biggest mistake was multi-tabling the 5/10 NL game on stars with a 6K bankroll.

I don't think he's 3-betting you preflop with K3, T3, 53 or 33, so you're only behind KK and TT.

Based on his betting, he could have AA, KK, TT, or some smaller flush.

I'd guess the odds of a smaller flush are probably 50%... odds of AA are probably 15%.... odds of KK or TT the other 35 percent.

If my guesses are right.... it's a close 3-bet. I could be way off, though.

Yeah, that line really bothered me too. I'd hate to think he was waiting for an IM from someone else on his table.

looks like a pocket pair. it's hard to tell if he was slowplaying a set or AA on the flop or if he got scared with QQ or JJ.

the river raise suggests a boat though. or a pure bluff. if he's not a moron, you probably saved yourself a bet, although calling is obviously the right play. if he is a moron, raising the river is correct. you need reads.

Don't the rules say one player to a hand?

You guys are retarded, the question wasn't even specific or from anyone at the table. At any given time I am discussing poker and various strategies with 1-3 people so for me to confirm this bet against a certain style of player is not uncommon. Sheesh, lighten up. I'm not interested in cheating, I'm interested in becoming a better player.
