Re: 400NL 99 facing C/R
Players with an AF that low are generally pretty weak. I think 99 is a fairly straightforward fold here. While this might be a pure bluff very occasionally, huge majority of the time this is going to...

Re: The JESUS Draw... All-in
Raise preflop, raise more on flop. If remaining player on the turn is a total station and won't fold, take your free card.

Big draw, bet turn or take free card?
Villain is 20/15/2.3. Likes to call steal raises from the blinds with suited As, suited connectors, etc. Also calls quite a lot of flops.
Do we bet turn or take free card? What factors weigh into...

Re: weird TPGK in multiway pot
If BB is genuinely passive then he's probably not donking the turn into three players with a worse hand or draw. Combine that with the possibility that the players behind you could have a better hand...

AK gets min-donked twice
Villain is 45/3/2.56 and obviously a donk. Do we bomb away at the turn again or just call? Looked to me like a flush draw or weaker ace.
Shoving river would be way too thin though, right?
2/4...

Re: NL 400 turn call
I can go either way here. Given how drawy the board is I think bet/fold is good vs this type of opponent.

Re: River decision 200bbs deep v donk

Why did you check the river?
[/ QUOTE ]
To induce a bluff from missed clubs. Not a shove though. As bad as this guy was I didn't see any value in betting the river.

Re: KK river decision, I am confused

River decision 200bbs deep v donk
Villain is 46/30/0.75 over 71 hands. I have seen him all in on a K-J-2 flop with A2.
The clubs have missed. Is river an auto call? Fold? Comments on other streets appreciated too if I have...

KK river decision, I am confused
Villain is 20/14/2.9. Appears your typical TAG.
I don't understand the river shove. If he's bluffing there are two possibilities: either he is good enough to turn a made hand like JJ into a bluff,...

Re: 400NL,
Looks fine to me. You're going to see missed spades and something else random a decent percentage of the time.
