Re: Fold 2 pair, bad lay down?
Hi Schmitt, your pf info is a bit confusing. You may want to edit. I'm guessing everyone folded to SB who raised, and you & UTG called?
This is a very poor fold if you did so specifically...

Re: Four Idiots
Hi Andy,
Six of One told me your hand was so funny that I had to log in here out of retirement to read. Even I would have kept raising.

Re: 15/30 Bellagio interesting turn spot
This is oddly played. If UTG is a poor player as you described, at a fairly tight table, nothing wrong with raising to isolate or plain folding preflop. By limping you just handed the hand to the...

Re: Turn Decision
I would be torn between betting (if I felt villain was looking for a free card) and check-raising (if I was confident he was going to bet). I wasn't there so I can't tell you exactly. What Andy...

Re: QTs hand vs. Koko
River: check-call. More often than not, Coco (I like his spelling his name with a "C" because it gives him more simian qualities) has Ax K /images/graemlins/spade.gif.

Re: Small bluff hand
Pf is fine, raising is close, folding is silly for 2/3 structure. As for the river, there's too little info to really know the best course of action. If he had played with you for a while, and can...

The villain turned out to be quite a character, the one where they seem to be playing sensibly, but it turns out they're just another lag. I guess what I learned is what Miller said in SSHE. Assume...

Two hands, same cards, same villain
20/40 live, 9-handed. Game is above average. Villain is the table chip leader. Plays too many hands imo.

Re: How do ya play this river?
For an unknown player, this is a call for me. I'd fold if it was a very predictable player. For example, would he open-limp with an ace? FWIW, I would have check-raised the flop and lead the turn.
