So this is my 1,000th post here at 2plus2. I would like to take this 1K post to announce that about a week ago I reached my first 1K BB downswing! Seemed appropriate. Playing SH LHE between 1-2 and...

Re: Call this river donk?
I'm mainly a SH player these days so that might skew my play a little incorrectly here. Or is this a ramin' jamin' SH game anyway? Either way I know I'm instacalling this. I'd fold against some very...

Re: FR - folding AQ from EP raiser standard?
AQo against an unknown's UTG raise in a FR game. Pretty sure the correct answer is fold. This is only 8 handed though so a 3-bet looks better than it otherwise would. It's obv a close decision....

Re: Raise/call river donk with set?
Do you have any stats or reads on villain?
I agree that PF is an easy iso raise. As an aside, I disagree with your later statement that 55 is 'certainly next to impossible to play' 3-way unless...

Re: Too Weak with Q\'s???
Yeah, I think the turn fold was a bad one. That donk will donk turn with a way wider range than those beating you IMO. I believe I'd raise this up before I folded but I think you should call...

Re: 77 in small blind.
I think you played preflop well and the plan and play on the flop was good IMO.
Personally, I bet the turn here, and then look to check-call some rivers. Given your read, I think your pair is...

Re: 99 rivers boat
What does UTG have? I think it's unlikely that he has you beat. KK and JJ would often cap, and 22 wouldn't often open raise from there. Then again, if he tends to crawl into his shell when played...
