Re: Aces -- ugly turn
Raise, unless original turn bettor is capable of three betting with a pair and a flush draw. Then calling or folding are both reasonable I guess.

Re: Comm 40: KK vs Gabe and a donk
I like it. You kept the BB in by simply calling along and you let gabe possibly bluff off his money if he is behind. Standard, but not played this way much anymore.

In a five dollar rake game, which is pretty common everywhere but Vegas, folding this spot is not as horrendous as some on here are claiming, especially if you are playing for a living.

Re: 20/40 Kill, oop w/ 3way action

Re: Get sexy with top set? 77 in the BB
I think this is an easy smooth call and turn checkraise. No reaistic draws. The presence of the fish makes the smooth call checkraise a cinch play I think. This is a wet dream hand by the way.

Re: live 20 hand
checkraise the flop so you can bet the turn and check the river to induce a bluff from an in position opponent who creatively puts you on the naked ace.
