Re: LHE Isolation Reraise
The purpose of the question is this: is the increased (heads up) equity that you would/should need significant? Is the situation still reraise/fold or is cold calling now correct?

LHE Isolation Reraise
What is a good rule for the amount of equity you need to attempt an isolation reraise in LHE? 50% does sound reasonable, but does your position affect the equity that you need? What if you are in...

Re: butchered A9 hand
I would just call on the flop and then check-raise the two pair on the turn. I think capping the turn is bad without a read. On the river, the decision on whether bet out or check-raise would depend...

Re: Hand Chart...version 3. my version
Wow... excellent effort! I personally feel that you recommend a few too many loose plays, since games with multiple limpers typically also have high rake.

Re: uh-oh
Why should we think that MP will call the river c/r? From PokerBob's description of the hand, we should be more inclined to believe that MP won't call. Assuming that the SB noticed the same reactions...

Re: Correct turn check?
You played this hand well. You had a nice hand preflop but you met resistance from two players on a flop that didn't suit you at all, apart from the fact that your overcards might be good. Check the...

Re: Overpair+GS
I think this is a good turn fold. Having to fold the overpair and gutshot sucks. I don't know why got fancy with the preflop UTG limp-reraise, but when you're not closing the action it's usually...

Re: A-high flush on fugly board vs LAGTAG
You beat Ks Js, Ks Ts and Js Ts, as well as a maniacally played Ks Qx hand. Against a nightmare LAGTAG like this, I'm calling the river, although I'm not happy about it.

Re: top pair on the turn
Donking the flop into the preflop capper is a perfectly fine play in the right spots - I sometimes view it as being "well I would have 5-bet you preflop if I could!". I tend to c/c this flop rather...

Re: How hard did he hit? AQs
I think calling is better than raise/fold, because it is probably only A9 will pay you off and there are more BDFD possibilities.

Re: wait for turn, or charge the draw now?
Another reason I really hate raise/fold on the turn in this situation is because a player like me in the villain's shoes will sometimes not 3-bet the turn and c/r or donk the river instead.

Re: AKs turn/ river play
As long as you are capable of raising AT and JJ+ on the turn here, I do not think it turns your hand face up.
