Re: Set in 3-bet pot....min-raise ftw?
With so many draws out there I would raise more on the flop and pray that villain puts it in with an overpair before any scare cards come that might let them get away from their hand.

I don't know what the SS means, but you have to e-mail their VIP support to get the free entry. Sometimes it takes a couple of days for them to get back to you so it's a good idea to get in touch...

Re: Absolute VIP
They gave me $110 if memory serves correct for the chipset. I got $425 for an Ipod early last summer. I guess Ipods are cheaper now then they used to be.

Re: Reading too much; Couple hands vs. LAG
I didn't realize that we were supposed to comment on hand #1, but I think that it's a pretty clear b/f as this is an unpaired A looking to pull off a turn "value check" very frequently.

Re: help on turn please
You can't fold the flop getting 11.5:1 when his range still probably includes 88-QQ as well as KK AA (Or maybe an oddly played AK or AQ or something). I will fold the turn normally UI against someone...

Re: Reading too much; Couple hands vs. LAG
If this guy is really laggy then I am a bit surprised that he didn't bet the turn in hand #1. He clearly likes to show down a lot though, so your bet in hand #2 is pretty good IMO as he will likely...

Re: 99 in large pot against LAG, playing passive
Raise the flop to try to knock out SB, and possibly CO because if villain 3-bets it will face CO with 2 cold. If villain has an overpair then you have 6 outs so you will have to call the turn anyway....

Re: Anybody slow down here? ($3/$6)
Most AA and KJ will figure out that you have a set by the time you cap the turn, so when he leads out river I think I tend to call. I don't think raising and calling a 3-bet is ever going to be a big...

I used to play it the way you do. Now I am peeling more against blind stealers, because there are so many K-high and J-high hands that you are ahead of:

Re: Pretty simple 66
PF call is marginal. Maybe it's ok if the other guys spew after the flop. When the tag caps PF and a K hits on the flop then I am pretty much done with the hand. I don't think this is AQ often enough...

If you were in a blind war then this would be an auto-calldown for me. Since this is an UTG raise that you 3-bet it's a bit closer when he check raises and you should probably try to figure out how...
