TomCollins, I may be mistaken, but I believe your avatar is an OSU Buckeye football helmet, no? As a Michigan alum, I am so terribly tempted to make a stereotypical wisecrack right now, given your...

Re: TPTK C/R on turn

Ewww. BB is tight and pretty stinking passive for his tightness. I think a read as to how he handles his draws would be nice. Is he likely to peel with an OC and a gutshot (AQ, for...

Re: Turn semibluff...
Were you hoping to fold out 22 (set), 33 (set), 44 (oesd), or 55 (set)? Or was it specifically 66-77, since 88 spiked on the turn?

Re: 1/2: Top pair facing bet & raise
Grunch
Well, getting 6.5-1 right there, I think it's a pretty easy call with TPMK plus the bdfd, which is probably ~5 outs if we're behind (of course, if CO has a set, we're down to 1.5, but...

Re: 5/10 76s: This is simple, probably

Yeah, I probably bet here. It looks like ace high to me. But I would fold to a raise. I might have popped the turn, but the TAG might have been b/f'ing, so calling down is probably right....

Re: My 88 runs into a WTF raise.

That raise did come out of nowhere. I think I probably would have bet the turn, since your read says that he donks his big hands and is aggressive with his draws, thus a turn c/r would...

Re: I fold top pair

I'm pretty sure he only has one, bro. I'd probably dump on the turn, too.

Okay, MP2 in this hand has been on the most massive heater in history. He's up ~55 BB in the last 2 1/2 orbits. He's very loose and very aggressive. I'm not sure if it will get lost in the action,...

The best line is probably raise/call and fold the river UI to continued aggression, bet/fold the river if he calls and checks to us. It's hard for me to see him going crazy with 2 pair on...

It looks to me like villain has a big king or aces. I could see him playing it this way if he thought you were semi-bluffing a draw. I probably just call here, but I don't think 3-betting...

Looks good to me, up until the river. I would probably bet/fold that one. But, looking at the title of your post, you probably knew that already /images/graemlins/wink.gif.

I raise and call a 3-bet. BB could have an 8 or he could have a single pair (since your turn check looks like a high). I don't like getting 3-bet, but there are also a lot of 2 pair...

SB is 23/11/2.25 over 75 hands. He seemed solid, didn't make any wild errors or bluff compulsively. MP is 42/1.5/.18 over 65 hands. Not a very good player, chases weak draws, calls down with...
