Re: 10-20 LO8 Hand
You flopped the nut straight and a straight flush draw on all high board in a multiway pot. Given that, "only a few players have a clue, none of which are in this hand" is an excellent choice of...

Re: FTP 3/6 FR LO8: Bad laydown?
Sorry, but this is just really bad.
I mean, I guess it would be useful if you're using PAHUD to check his check/raise flop numbers to try and get an idea of how he'd play a wheel here. He's...

Re: 6-max PF poll
Voted raise/fold/raise. Folding is preferable to calling given the parameters of an aggressive 6max game. You are giving a free pass to anyone inbetween you and the button to raise in an attempt to...

Re: A223 in a 26 BB pot
Preflop is a definite flat call, flop is even more so. Your hand is mediocre and you caught an average flop against people you categorise as lunatic fish, why in the world are you jamming the pot?...

Re: General Question. Calling just for low.

Depends on what's in the pot, what you may have for backdoor high redraws and whether you have any counterfeit protection.

Re: 3-betting light
I don't like it. If the first limper is as tight as you claim I doubt he'd bet a naked nut low draw. I also doubt either of the blinds will fold an A2. In a multiway pot this just looks like a...

Re: one vaguely defined idea, two 100-200 hands
The outcome of hand 2 was that I bet the turn and he folded. I think threebetting preflop is a bigger mistake than my flop line, but for the same reasons. I'm out of position, my hand has...

Re: one vaguely defined idea, two 100-200 hands
I was thinking about a guy I used to play headsup a lot who I thought was very bad, at least to begin with. But the manner in which he was bad made me adjust my initial approach considerably, but I...

Re: Poker in Uk, where to go
The games I'm assuming you'd be targeting are the mid limit hold'em games. These are almost always played pot limit and uncapped.

It might be ugly but its nowhere near being close. It does look like 43 more than A3 because of the lack of interest shown prior to the river, but its still A3 or something weird more than enough to...

Re: B&M 3/6 LO8 good fold or too tight?

pretty easy fold. the only great card in the deck for you is a 2, and you can easily be counterfeited on the river. I'd lay it down against this # of opponents, esp OOP.

Definitely threebet. You are crushing a low wrap because you have a load of their cards, you might well be drawing at the best low, or be tied with someone, in which case you'd be surprised how...

You should almost always raise or fold first in. After that, you do whatever you believe to be best in each individual situation, rather than stand by a perceived notion that calling is always bad. ...
