Re: AA in BB, .25/.50

His aggression here was way out of character. I had never seen him cap anything postflop, and I honestly had no idea where he was in the hand. This was the only note I had on him prior to this...

Isolation raise, bd flush draw on turn.

MP2 is 42/5/0.8

First, good spot to isolate?

Second, turn decision?

Re: Turning TPNK in 4-way pot

I'm so confused. Raise preflop, c-bet the flop.

As played prflop and flop, lead the turn when check to.

As played all the way, call down.

Re: Jacks on the river

That's a tough river, but he only has to be bluffing or overplaying 99 or AQ, AK, about 1 in 11 to make calling break even. Auto-call based on pot size.

Don't fold for one bet in big pots when...

Re: Playing from the Button with a raise in front

QJo I fold almost all the time in that spot, unless I have a specific read that the CO has a wide range and steals often. Then I'm 3-betting alot if the blind are tight. If the blinds are likely to...

Re: Preflop from BB and river decision

Fold preflop.

I don't want to get raised by UTG after we call this turn, and CO is already hand commited, so there's no point raising the turn to isolate him on the river and bluff him off the...

Re: .50/1 Full Tilt JJ gets 3-bet preflop

There's not much you're beating here against both UTG+! and CO. I'm inclined to check/fold. If the board was rainbow, or we had a spade, I'd be more inclined to peel if UTG+1 C-bets and both CO and...

Re: AJ, bad line?

I had no real read other than loose preflop. The only hand he showed down was a flush draw he called the flop and turn with, and called showdown when he made 2nd pair on the river.

Re: A few pretty basic hands that I think I\'m playing wrong. feedback?

Apparently I'm playing too tight preflop, as I generally fold small pairs in EP, and often MP first in. I thought you needed four or five players to make these hands worth the preflop investment,...

Re: Live hand, river decision time

I'm probably check calling against one bettor and one caller. Only reason is pot size plus your reads.

Re: [.25/.50] QTs preflop

I'd much rather raise 98s here than QTs. 98 is much less likely to be dominated.

I do like thinking about the range we're dominated by, though. Never thought about it that way before.

Re: Caught my pair on the turn!

My first instinct is raise, but he's calling anyway and we can't protect against anything but a gutshot (just barely) and QQ, JJ. He probably would have capped with AA, KK preflop.

If he's ahead...
