Re: $11 NLTRN: Top pair gets all-in on the turn

pretty much yeah, maybe like 550-600, against some players a shove is fine too. Ones that overvalue hands and would call with 9T or 76

Re: $11 NLTRN: Facing a river shove

You may get called by some small PP's or a J on river, plus it keeps pot small when you're...

Re: NLTRN - $20 reg - river check

I like the check, i think it is likely that he was drawing so if u bet he folds, if u check he may try to bluff you. However, i think this is player dependent. Against tight players i would just...

Re: NLTRN - $20 reg - flopped a combo draw

well i think bet/re-raise is a good line against a good thinking opponent as there is a chance he may lay down weak aces.

Against generally bad players i would check/call flop. Check-raising if...

I really like checking the turn as if villain raises me on turn im...

Re: $55 NLTRN: First hand 3bet pot w AQs

I like this line up to the river, where i would just call.

I think just calling the 3 bet is probably best as we have no reads so far on villain. The only other possibility i would do is shove, i...

Re: Hourly Rate, Table Selection and Number of Games per Hour. NLTRN

jay that is true, however, the figures i gave were for the turbo's $55, rather than the regular's $50. I did note that you add 1% for the regular's so, 57% at 50's should give roughly $25 an hour.

Re: Hourly Rate, Table Selection and Number of Games per Hour. NLTRN

Ok so variance will be bad so bankroll needs to be bigger to compensate. In your experience, is it better to play more games or only pick the good games?
