Re: I\'m SOOOOOOO stupid. HELP
there aren't many hands i'd fold for 1 bet in the BB. and once you've called a raise, you might as well call the cap with 7s8s. It's a great multi-way hand in a raised pot.
all that said, you...

UTG raises, 3 callers, SB folds, I'm in the BB and can close the action with 6h 8h. Easy call,...

Who are the posters to respect here?
Serious question. I see a lot of "that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard" on this board. We're playing microlimits, so, obviously, we're not pros.
Other than yourself, who do you respect and...

Re: Flops Monster, Awful play.
OK genius. What do you do differently? How many bets do you really think you are getting out of this? You get 1 checkraise per hand 90 percent of the time. Once you've raised, people go into...

Re: Flops Monster, Awful play.

Explain this to me
Why bet the river and fold to a check raise? If you are willing to put in one bet, why not just check call? At least that way, you find out for sure if you are beaten.

Quck help needed
I have 7500 chips in a MTT after starting with 1500 ... first hour is almost up. Is it worth adding on 1500 more? Or is that not enough of a ratio to my stack to make it worthwhile?
Thanks.
