Re: NL Day 2
A bunch of thoughts:
1. You guys give really good advice. Everybody expands on what they are talking about, giving in-depth reasoning. I love this.
2. It's really cool to see guys from the old SS forum in here.
3. [ QUOTE ]
hand 2 is spewing when you raise the flop. Because it is SCREAMING bluff.

I actually thought about this too at the time. From what I have seen so far though, people fold on the flop WAY too much without good hands or draws. I didn't expect him to call with any unpaired hands, though this conclusion could certainly be wrong (as results show).

What would you have done if the turn was a non-board-pairing brick, but the action were unchanged? That is,turn comes J, you bet, opponent check-raises. Your action? This is an important question because this happens waaay more often than what actually happened in the hand. And you need to get this right. Take it from an old limit guy. This is a hand that you could be suceptible to getting wrong becasue of your limit background.

Well I know I would fold. At that point I think the reverse implied odds would kill me right?

If you wanted to take a stab at the pot here you'd be better off leading the betting IMHO, as the risk is lower.

I thought c/r would be better since (a) I get more value when I take the pot down and (b) I thought a c/r would do a better job of getting him to fold unpaired hands. Is this untrue?
Results:

Hand 1: I pushed. Villain called with a flopped straight.
Hand 2: I called the all-in. Villain had AK. FWIW, he took almost all of his clock to call on the flop.
