1/45 A on turn might have me behind--what to do?
Okay, when both guys call my raise and then an ace comes on the turn I'm thinking I may be in trouble. BB checks to me. What's a good way to handle this situation? Thanks.

1/45 about 13 left facing push with TT
This initially seemed like an obvious push to me, but I hesitated because there were so many much bigger stacks yet to come. Any suggestions?

Re: 1+.25 45man JJ losing value quickly
Seems like he might have something like a couple high spades. Seems odd that he would semi-bluff two people, though. I guess the thing that makes me the most nervous here is that you still have...

1.20/45 four left in BB with A9o, small stack
What's the standard play here? Please note that I'm on the small stack with less than 6BBs.

1.20/45 JJ preflop with call and raise in front
This is probably an easy one, but for some reason I became very unsure when the betting got to me. What is the standard play here? Is it to make a pot-sized bet to isolate MP2? Thanks in advance....

Re: 88 on the button early on..
Min-raises from UTG make me very nervous. When he just calls your flop bet I think the alarm bells have got to be going off. Maybe I'm playing this weak, but I'm folding to his turn bet.

Re: Should i call this isolation raise with JJ?
But the BB saw you raise 3x from EP--doesn't that alone (not to mention the push from the button) suggest that his range is going to be tighter? The range you've indicated looks like a range that...

Re: Should i call this isolation raise with JJ?
I really appreciate this discussion of the side pot--I was too dense/inexperienced to even think about it. I think I've learned a lot from it. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Damn those aggro swedes
Would an 87, 88, or 99 be consistent with the villain's betting pattern? (I think I'm reaching a bit here for reasons not to fold!)

Re: Damn those aggro swedes
I get that argument.
What I'm wondering is how common is it for a BB to make this call PF with suited connectors (I'm assuming this is what we think he has). I would have to say that it's not a...

Re: Should i call this isolation raise with JJ?
Is the range that you would push with if you were shortie different from the range you're putting him on? If I was shortie, I just can't see myself pushing into an early position raiser with...

Re: Should i call this isolation raise with JJ?
I'm sure I'm stating the obvious, but I guess this all just comes down to what kind of hand you put the button on. He's at a stack size where you would think all he's going to be doing is pushing. ...

Re: Should i call this isolation raise with JJ?
I think the sequencing of bets is important as well. Button sees you raise 3x from early position. At this point in the game, I think he's got to put you on a decent hand. Also, assuming nobody...

Re: Should i call this isolation raise with JJ?
That's two pushes to you. Pot is 4615 (I think). You've got to put in 3120. Pot odds = 1.5. Do you win this 1/3 of the time? I'm thinking probably not. But, at best, it seems like it's close...

Re: 1.2/45 99 UTG
I can understand your argument. My normal PF raise is 3xBB, but, for whatever reason, I put in 4xBB here. I think I was trying to chase as many people as possible.
BTW, I did fold to the raise...

1.2/45 99 UTG
This kind of hand (mid-range PP) is a complete mystery to me. What's the standard way to play PF given that I'm UTG? Given my preflop raise, what's the next step? Guess this is why you don't play...
