Re: hidden opportunity?
The preflop raise is unusual, but in the right situation it can be ok.

Re: AK facing huge overbet in 10 rebuy
I agree with levAA: instacall
I would expect him to have a pair or any ace. He thinks he has the best hand and you are simply raising to steal the blinds.
There are three cases here.

Re: sidepot question
Checking the hand down when there is no sidepot is rarely a good idea. Eventhough you cannot make the allin player fold, you still need to protect your hand.
For example, in this case you have a...

10/20 My nuts go bad and the turn is 3-bet
At the CNE in Toronto.
The play has been very loose in general. There is a mix of several very poor, no-fold'em players plus two or three good, solid players.
I am in middle position and there...

Re: 200NL - turned TPTK on a drawy board...
If you get raised on the turn like that, especially by a passive player, I say you have to fold.
In spite of the draw-heavy board, I would be inclined to check/call the turn. Otherwise you are...

Re: Another awkward spot vs maniac-fish
I agree with Jamougha and cbboy: reraise allin on the flop. Either you believe he has a deuce or you don't. If he does have a deuce, then you're in trouble, but if he doesn't, then you are ahead of...

Re: NL (1$) did hero play this well ?
Do you think Villain would have called more than $21 on the turn had you bet? Especially if he's expecting you to bet again on the river?
It doesn't look like he would have to me, so I think the...
