Raise pf, bet flop, be happy that SB's donkraise allowed you to get some money in with the best hand.

[Shibby]

Agreed.

I played that atrociously. A diamond on the river and he's moving in on me though. :-/

[VarlosZ]

No content? Good, then I guess this is the place for bitching.

Party $1/$2. A couple of limpers to me in MP w/ 55, I call, another limp, LP raises to $13. EP limper calls, I call, others fold.

Flop: J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Check, check, preflop raiser open-pushes for $180. Player in EP calls $180. Wow. I repush (about an extra $10), EP calls.

Turn: K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
River: K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

EP had QQ, preflop raiser shows AK and takes down my $600 pot.

Me: "I just threw something really hard."

True story.

BB went on a tirade about my neverending string of boats lol rounders, reloaded, then left about two hands later.

[Shibby]

That's pretty unnerving. Sorry man.

[TreyOfLight]

That's much nicer. 5-handed, I like to raise or fold A7o before the flop.

In both of the hands you posted, I'd push the rivers. It's only(!) about 2.5x pot; your loose-passive opponents are not folding their straights/flushes/underboats nohow, and the overbet might be taken as a steal and called with all sorts of junk.

[Shibby]

The SB in the first hand took about 20 seconds to finally call, I doubt a push would have been called by him. The second hand, a push was definitely being called as BB didn't even realize the full had gotten there as he was blinded by the Royal Flush draw.

I usually keep my mouse button firmly planted over the bet pot button at UB though, as I'm sure you can see.

I'm not sure you can draw that conclusion. A bet that pot-commits you without going all-in shows a lot of strength; it says that you aren't looking for fold equity, and you aren't afraid of a check-raise. If I were SB in that spot, I'm more afraid of that pot-sized bet than I am of a push.

nihan.
