Re: Simple call or fold

Call, given stack sizes. If your stack were close to his, fold.

Re: I have a GS + FD.... 600NL.

No one else has mentioned it, so I will. Fold that cheese preflop.

(If you do get to the flop, raise, then fold to reraise because your outs are dead.)

Re: all-in pre-flop KK vs. QQ deal

I agree it doesn't matter with a single out. That's why I used two outs in my example. Obviously, with only a single out, there is no way that you might waste one of your outs in the way I...

Re: 2/5NL - Flop the joint, fold the turn

Good fold. From your read, he isn't bluffing, so the BEST you are hoping for is to chop. But he more likely has the flush.

Re: all-in pre-flop KK vs. QQ deal

Sorry, I've been away and was just catching up with old threads that I had been in. Please explain why my argument is wrong.

By the way, another way to reduce the variance, one that is always (nearly) fair, is to split the pot into two or three roughly equal sub-pots. (It doesn't matter if they are...

Re: I play AA like third pair

I'd be a little concerned about a second 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif in the deck.

Re: 5/10NL: Three trouble hands from recent session

Hands 1 & 2 I like, as long as the flop check is an alternate (i.e. mixing it up) strategy and not your primary approach. Usually you should bet out on that flop.

Hand 3 Fold preflop. Your hand...

Re: all-in pre-flop KK vs. QQ deal

It's easy enough to calculate. Just go to twodimes.net

You had 82% pot equity, villain had 18%

Overall pot was $380. 18% of $380 is $68.40. You made a good...

Re: 5-10 NL- Holy Nit Batman

I'd like to see you lead out on that flop, and then knuckle under to any pressure. While I agree that AA and KK are in his range, I bet AK, QQ, JJ, and maybe even TT are, too. You could easily get...

Re: Fire one more on the river?

Since it is clearly all-in, you should bet again. He may call you down with top pair, or even less, since you've been so aggressive. If there would be a decent amount left after your bet (if, say,...

Remember that pause before pushing on the check-raise. If he does that again, fold.

Re: 2nd nuts

Well, it sure isn't an easy fold. Against a passive enough player, I might be able to find a fold here, but it would take some doing.

Re: (2/4 NL) QQ postflop w/ BIG stacks....showing it down

Well, he could have been on the heart draw and is bluffing, he might have had 97 or 99 and has just out-rivered you, or he could have slowplayed with 46 or a set, but I really doubt that last one.

Re: 2/5: Live AK hand at my regular game.

SA125 has made a nice analysis to show that SB can't possibly have AA or KK, and I totally disagree with it. SB knows that only LAG (PFR'er) and hero are left, and hero, being tight, will probably...
