I used to get a beer out of the fridge every time I'd go all-in preflop. This way no matter what I'd have something good to look forward to upon my return. Also stops you from flaming the guy who...

Re: What is this person thinking?
I remember playing a 5/5nl hand at FW with AK in BB. UTG raises to $40, I reraise to $120, he calls. Flop comes K46 rainbow. I check, he bets $50, I raise to $250, he calls. Turn comes 4. I check, he...

Re: risk all chips at flop?
Good play. I would do the same, but I wouldn't be excited. One of those situations that you call and close your eyes till the bad man leaves.
I wouldn't be excited because there are lots of...

Re: Bellagio $1080 Tourn - Early Chip Lead
I wouldn't consider a flush draw tell to be a fearful reaction towards a question, especially in this tournament.
If your read on villian is accurate, which I assume it is, then I could see villian...

Re: Final 2 tables - how is this push?
From a complete objective perspective (no read or background on button) I am against pushing. Wait for a better spot. No need risking tournament life pushing AI with mediocre cards against someone...

Re: Slowplay this AA?
You don't think it's a stretch to think that the CO is trapping the button with a limp?

Re: Do i fold this flop?
You posted 5 hands this morning and at best 2 of them are worthy of a thread. This is a standard fold.
Very early in the tournament and you're most likely behind. When a player re-raises PF, has...

Re: Was this played ok?
With a short stack either call or push the flop. You're not betting enough to get 9,10 or A7 off. You're also not leaving yourself with a lot of options for the turn as you're now pot committed. When...

Re: JJ whats my best play here?
Supwithbates is right. Please don't post outcome in future. This is completely standard and the optimal move.
If the button raises to 600, push. If the button pushes, call.

Re: Slowplay this AA?
Raise to 1200. You want action with your AA and 4 times the blind is just that.
If you push then CO will more then likely fold since he is limping from a LP. With a stack of 3000 against his 8000...

Your image is ideal for this situation. Not sure why BB is min. raising with the intention of pushing you out. A more plausible scenario is that he thinks you have a marginal hand and is building the...

Re: KK right after the bubble
You have top set on a non sequenced rainbow flop. Unlikely that UTG limps with J,10 and even more unlikely he calls your raise OOP. If he does have J,10 then he misplayed his hand. Call and hope he...

Re: Overpair on paired board: How to proceed?
Those tricky trappers.
So you bet the turn and called his check-raise? That's why patience is so important in tournaments, especially deep stacked tournaments. How much did you bet?

Re: Caught stealing....still a call??
This call has -ev with the villians range. You're also thinking about calling 43% of the pot with KJs. Losing 3 out of 13BB's is a better option then calling 10BB's with bad pot odds.

Re: Overpair on paired board: How to proceed?
I don't find it hard to believe that he called your 4BB PF raise OOP with 5-5, 6-6, or A-8. Since you've hammered the point about how solid and conservative the villian is, I find it more likely that...
