Re: huge pot, weird action
Yeah, looking back on the hand I think a 4-bet was in order. I couldn't pull the trigger at the time b/c the BB's 3-bet in that spot is rarely less the Q's (BB is unknown to me, older white guy....

huge pot, weird action
Bellagio 15/30. Most players are new to me. MP can best be described as a dufus (very loose, aggressive at weird times, passive with good hands, etc.), CO is new to me but has been playing very...

Re: More Additional, Folding
You 3-bet preflop, fire the flop and turn on a KQ board, and he waits until the turn to raise. Your getting a little better than 4-1 to call down here, and I don't think you'll win often enough to...

Re: I enjoy folding Part I
I fold there and don't think twice about it. 3-bets in that game rarely seem to be re-isolation moves, especially by regulars. If Mike is who I'm thinking of (big older guy, balding, wears glasses) I...

Re: weak, or way to weak?
I think this may be the best line to take against an unknown. I'm basically getting 7-2 to call down after checking behind on the flop. Also, the flop check will look like KK to him and may stop him...

Re: weak, or way to weak?
Unfortunately the player is basically unknown to me. But, I'm unknown to him also. It's for that reason that I gave him more credit for a K then I would a regular in the game. My pf 4-bet has to look...

Re: Dont usually post bet or check hands
I would bet and fold to a raise. The button called 3 cold pf, then raised your flop bet. He would be hard fought to raise this turn with JJ or worse after all of the action you put in and the with...

weak, or way to weak?
Bellagio 15/30. A few players have just switched out so the table has no rhythm. Villain is a young fellow, new to me, and has shown down a couple big pairs that he played strong/straight forward the...

Re: wait til turn?
I wait until the turn for a few reasons.
You can't protect your hand at all here.
SB leading into 4 players on this flop usually means no less then pair+draw AND wants to 3-bet your raise...

Re: Hand vs. goofball
I'd probably call the turn hoping for him to check behind on the river. When he doesn't (seems nobody ever does), I'd fold. Then again, I hate this line and have been debating whether a turn fold is...

Re: Completing in the SB in an unraised pot
I'm one of those who folds the majority of unsuited junk hands from the SB. Mostly because I dislike playing marginal hands OOP in small pots. My playing criteria in these spots ( 1 or 2 limpers to...

I think check calling twice stinks. So of course thats what I did and lost to AJ.
For everybody that advocates a bet on the turn, are you calling down if raised? I was thinking about a bet/fold on...

Speaking of laying one down....

question for dealers
If the player to the left of the button is the SB in a full game, why is the same player the BB in a headsup game? I've noticed a couple headsup games in the casino lately, and the player on the...

This situation has been coming up quite often in the 10/20 and 15/30 games lately. Much more often than I would have expected also.
Being suited in these situations isn't as important to me as...

Re: iso from the SB - general question
I tend to tighten up a bit when out of position. Then again, I try to loosen up in these situations also because a lot of players fear a SB raise more than a raise coming from late position. With...

iso from the SB - general question
A weak passive player open limps from middle position, folded to you in the SB, BB is average or unknown. What are your raising standards from here?
I find myself raising A7o and up, 77 and up,...

Hand 1: I check call and get shown 92 spades for a straight. Why this guy wanted to shut out the other 2 players with his big draw on the flop is beyond me.
Hand 2: I check call and get shown 77...

Re: dummy card, dummy call, or just plain dummy?
Nothing makes me think he has a straight. My read was spade draw after he checked behind on the turn. He would continue to bet any made hand on the turn including top pair and up. I was hoping to...

Flop comes K42 rainbow, and gets checked around.
