Re: Number of Players and Starting Hands
When you say, "...we should play the top X/XX of hands ..." you aren't defining what constitutes a "top" hand. And that's part of the problem with your assertion. The top hand preflop isn't always...

Re: 200nl - 67s, gross turn semi-bluff shove?
This is a wet flop with an ace on it, hero has a deceptive up and down straight draw in last position, and there are 3 players to the flop. I usually check behind here to take a free card. If I hit...

I think fold is best.
If you push and everybody folds, then you are probably up against TT-AA/AQ+ in the SB for ~$16 after the rake, giving you ~55.038% equtiy meaning that you win about eight...

Card rooms should spread whatever limit and game that the most players will play while still giving them a profit for spreading the game.

Re: NL100 - Is This Standard?
By default, you should probably c-b the flop, and fold if you run into a pot-sized c/r.
Checking to take a free card isn't terrible, however. But once you check the flop, you should call the...

Re: 50NL - KT flops top two deepstacked
Bet less on the flop. $1 or even $1.5 is fine. Overbetting isn't necessary. And in this case a smaller lead might have resulted in a smaller raise.
