Re: 12/180 turbo - Top Set on a Monotone Flop
Take a look at the posts here were guys even with JJ and QQ run into a Big Bet from the New Big Stack and get advised/convinced that backing down is a good idea because you're either a coin flip or...

Re: 12/180 turbo - Top Set on a Monotone Flop
The raise here, which I'm not clearly recommending but just offering as an alternative, is to try to train the table to back down and it's a judgement call. Most people would rather quote from the...

Re: 12/180 turbo - Top Set on a Monotone Flop
Calling PF is fine, but since we're big stack nothing wrong with playing New Kid on the Block Big Stack Poker and popping it to 1K here just to see what the table is like.
I'd call.
I think...

Re: Sunday 100 grand Hows my line here?
So he had 3 sets in a few orbits...that's a Six Sigma Event and nothing we can do about it.
CC w JJ PF isn't set mining: it's tragic.
In any event it's irrelevant to what our move is on the...

Re: $26 - 45 sng bubble
This is an easy Push.
In fact, Kx here is almost a mandatory push at this stage.
If you want to have any hope of winning these on a regular basis you have to get use to shoving in these...

Re: Sunday 100 grand Hows my line here?
So BTN busted 2 players and has only 3K in chips? He busted 2 very short stacks, no?
Flop: 2K in the pot we have 2.2K and TPTK with a Draw-y board; I'd shove here.

Re: Another tough river spot, same villain$4.40
J8s is a fairly reasonable hand to raise with PF. What is accomplished by limping OOP?
I don't necessarily believe that villain needed a K or 4 to call the Flop bet, and after the Turn check, and...

Re: How did I play this?
If we're playing T5 from the SB we're raising with it. Why play a terrible hand OOP?

Re: AA early in tournament - best way to proceed
With a lot of callers the best way to proceed is...cautiously!
Be willing to let it go an a coordinated Flop or a flop of all paint. Ideally we LOVE to see another A drop.

Re: In the Money but in the Death Zone
Solid, spot on analysis.
How would JTs hold up against the same range assuming that the pot was 5.5, I push for 7 and get at least one caller with the same range?

Re: Satellite- No idea how to play this spot
A call will still discourage blind stealing attempts.
Even if you were to fold after the flop.
Personally, my results have been getting much better since I stopped over valuing hands like A K and...

Re: Satellite- No idea how to play this spot
First, you're nowhere near the point where you can sit back and blind your way into the money, so passive play here is a HUGE mistake. You may look close, but this is like jumping the Grand Canyon...
