Re: Are we foldiing two pair here??

I do not play hu cash games, but I believe I should start. It seems like a completely different dynamic than the usual sit go format. I would probably make the tough fold even though I was in...

Re: folding overpair?

The part that makes it difficult to answer is the fact that you limped. Limping is cool once in a while, but it puts you in a tough spot with a tricky board. When I decide to limp AA or KK I have...

Re: Pocket Pair situations

You might see more situations like the one you described playing online simply because you play so many more hands than in a live game

Re: Knowing what someone mucked?

I believe you are allowed to see the mucked cards to prevent soft playing in tourneys/ring games. I dont know why you are allowed to in hu matches

Re: What am I doing wrong? - Full HH $20 NL SNG

I am sorry, but it is taking me too long to read through this entire thing. I would suggest picking maybe three important hands and posting those. Also, use a hh converter so they are easier to...

Re: 5$NLTOURN tough river vs. good player

Re: HUSNG Statistics Project

Stars does not allow data mining, but if somehow all this information is from stars, I may be interested in purchasing it. Either way, thanks for doing it and I look forward to the results

Re: Playable Hands

I assume this is button play. I would play them only if my opponent was passive and there was a good chance he would fold my pf raise. I would rarely limp these hands unless I planned to bluff at...

Re: $5.5 AKs hit flush draw on flop. Turn?

I would take the free card. He obviously has something after calling your large continuation bet. He limped from utg which could mean quite a few things in a 5.50 turbo. Whats the worst that can...

Re: Reraise or smooth call.

I would push the short stack in pf. You are only behind 3 hands and he may just be getting desperate. If he was a tight player, chances are he had any pair or A9+. I make the call here.
