Re: 1/2 Two hands
Hand 1 is pretty screwed up, converter wise, and probably game-wise as well. I cannot think of any holding where this would make sense.
Hand 2, I think, is just horrible.
How can he be bad and...

Re: Weird spot w/ A K. Party NL400 6m
I agree with Hatt - this may be interesting to discuss.
A lot of people will 3-bet AK preflop from any position because they feel "it has to be done", but then put themselves in nasty spots on the...

Re: Weird spot w/ A K. Party NL400 6m
Why is this spot so weird? Because of the K-high flushdraw?
Your AK missed, the board is pretty ugly, and your Cbet failed. I would be very inclined to give up...

Re: NL400 fold set to river push?
I would bet the full pot on the flop because you're up against 2 players and there's plenty of draws possible. Though I suppose it doesn't make a difference, really.
I'd lead the river as well....

Re: nl400 6m: passive AK TPTK hand
...I'm curious as to -
What do you put him on?
What was your plan for the river when you called the turn bet? (I agree with others who like a raise on the turn).
What made you fold the river? Just...

Re: Led into on turn
Hard to say something useful about this.
I expect someone taking this line will surely have TPGK beat, you gathered that much yourself.

Re: Facing mini check raise 5 10
What kind of hands do you expect a solid player to limp/call with PF when UTG?
Any playable hand with a K in it, or 99, would probably have raised (assuming 6-max), no?
And wouldn't a set/Top...

Re: bottom set , weird turn donkbet
Preflop, with 77 and only 1 limper to you, I would raise this.
On the flop, you need to raise quite a bit more. Looking at stacks, I would raise a LOT more. This raise is not going to get rid of...

Re: standard gay spot
A call would be pretty bad I think - it doesn't let us know anything more about villain's hand.
And even in the best case scenario (rag on the turn), would you want to lead into a $280 pot, still...

Re: standard gay spot
I understand that folding seems weak ... But seriously, decisions on later streets are only going to get more and more complicated.
You'll be playing a top pair hand with a so-so kicker, little...

Re: $4/$8 - Should I protect this set?
Thanks Jim - I was thinking amongst those lines, raised to $257 and took it down.
Then I wondered "hmm perhaps I should've gotten more out of this", hence I posted.
(edit, corrected raise amt.)

Call and re-eval turn? fold to another large bet?

I don't think this is a good idea. I can't think of a card that could hit the turn that wouldn't make me check/fold.

Re: Did I lose value here?
I think betting the 1/3 pot on the turn is really bad. You're pricing in the possible draws. Though a draw would be my last worry here - what would have raised with UTG?...

Re: 5/10- KK on ugly flop
Like I said, the call is obv a no-brainer. I was more interested in hearing comments on the preflop play and initial flop bet.

Who bets here after he checks?

Not me. I don't see Ax (with x not being a Q ofcourse) call you, so I doubt there's value in a bet here.
