Re: How can I lose at 200nl?
I don't play NL $200 but I think you played several of these hands wrong. The one that really stood out is where you made the spade flush draw on the river and the villain pushes 4x pot and you...

Re: Simple preflop/flop hand...
I think if I had JJ or TT I would definitely just call. But QQ is tough because if I just call and the flop comes like it did, it's really tough to make a decision because the villain might have TT...

Simple preflop/flop hand...
Really simple situation here but I'm not sure what the best way to handle it is.
Game is NL $50 6-max, effective stacks are 100 BBs. A nit with a PFR of 6 raises UTG+1 to $2. It's folded to me...

Re: 50NL TPTK v. AI raise
I would probably raise this more PF, say to $4. I also bet more on the flop.
As played, I would probably fold to the turn raise. Villain doesn't act very scared of the ace, and his limp/call...

Re: 50NL Common spots/Leaks
Hand 1, ugh, rough spot to be in. I think you did fine.
Hand 2, I don't like leading the flop. He probably won't call with anything you beat. I fold it as played.
Hand 3, I play it the...

Villain is 47/7/1.5. How'd I play? I didn't like the turn because it completed the 3-flush and also some straight draws. I still had a flush draw myself so I checked behind. Is the river call...

Re: Are you kidding me?
You're going to see slow played overcards here a lot more than the 6 I think. Slow playing the flop isn't that bad considering the strength of your hand.

Re: I have 350K party points
You might want to save them if nothing appeals to you. I believe they are supposed to update the point system as well as the store this fall.

Re: 100NL Call this PF with AQ?
I'm not calling here. I might raise if I think he will fold but I won't just call here. The problem is when you hit a pair on the flop. If you hit an A on the flop, you're probably not going to...

Re: online poker illegal
I think 90% of the player base is from the US. Furthermore, I think most of the fish are from the US, not Europe or elsewhere.

Re: Starting with $50, hypothetical question.
