Re: 15/30 slightly deep w/ bottom set
I am assuming he has T8 or T9, only getting 2 to 1, would he really not have a T or 5 here or higher set 1 out of 3 times?
I would fold, since if he has a T it costs you 70+ BB's and if he doesnt,...

Re: TPGK facing small c/r from strong player
I'd probably fold preflop.
As played, he probably has at least a draw and more likely a pair + draw minimum, then 2pair or a set, testing you to see where he is at. 2 high cards on the flop and...

I feel like checkraising the turn here is pretty bad, in that he'll probably always call with better hands, and probably always fold worse ones. And the last thing I want to do with stacks...

Re: Maybe interesting spot 200x deep with AK
If he is as aggressive as you say he will most likely bet the turn, so i like check-calling the flop, let him put some more money in on the turn and check-raise him there. You said he probably sees...

Re: 5/10 Live at the Taj: Middle Set Deep
I dont think he would raise to 450 on the flop w/ a made straight, seems more than likely that would drive everyone out and no reason to do that.
Your flat call there probably shows a big hand...

Re: Trips OOP on scary board: $10/$20
I fold.
He is a tight player so he either has a decent pair or 2 high cards preflop, if he had mid-suited conncetors he would have folded the flop, along w/ 77-99.
He either has you crushed now...

Re: Turn semibluff crai
Yeah, your right, i wrote that based on what i thought his thought process might be, as in "if this guy had a 9, wouldnt he want to get more value out of it" leading him to call more often.
