How's your SSNLHE?: AKs

[The Vookster]

I love these pools... please post more of them!!

As an aside, I like the preflop raise isolation idea. provides great pot odds to take down a big pot where you are at worst probably 50/50 and in many cases would have the SB dominated.

Why don't some of you want to bet the flop? Don't we have a monster draw and want to get our money in?

Because there is no money in the sidepot.

pretty passive line... I'd def reraise preflop, put $ in on the flop, etc etc. Once you get to the turn like this though the turn/river line is good, obv have to raise the river for value.

Where the hell did this come from? 1.5 yrs old...wtf?

And of course, I agree with CTS. Grunch, there is value in getting him out of the pot, even if there is a dry side pot, so I bet that flop. There is typically added fold equity with a dry sidepot too, so we might be able to get him to fold a better hand.

You know that some people actually go back and read the threads linked in the stickies, right?

sorry... I guess I bumped this thread to the top by replying to it. obviously new to the forum so I have been working my way through all the threads posted in the stickies trying to get smarter.

I really liked the poll posts... made me feel like I was reading Harrington's problems at the end of his chapters... only better, in that these threads have feedback from multiple angles and opinions.

LOL. Are you implying that I haven't read the stickies? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I wasn't intending to be mean. It was fun to see again.

I'm not disagreeing, I was just answering the question.

We want to build one with this hand, no?
