Re: 2-pair and FD turn play.
That looks pretty good to me. That looks an awful lot like a slowplayed JT? Either way, I c/c the river after the turn is capped.

Re: KK from the BB
When the CO raises you're in serious trouble and it looks like your overpair is no good. SB might just keep raising it up behind you, anyway, so time to lay it down.

Re: Best possible drawing hands
That comment doesn't change anything. There are two issues. First, whether or not you're a favorite to win the hand. Clearly, with a straight flush draw and two overcards, you are. Second,...

Re: Reverse Implies Odds
Jcl's got it. In a reverse implied odds situation, you have a hand that might be best at the moment but (1) it's marginal at best and (2) doesn't stand to improve much.
His example of 87 on an...

Re: K6 straight on a flushy board
I donk the flop. I'd hate to have it checked through. You can count all nine hearts as outs, and maybe just discount your OESD outs to 3 or 4 instead of 6? I don't know that the K is worth any. ...

Re: Lagg player bets on flop A high, paired
A grunch.
I'm raising and hopefully MP2 folds. If so and SB 3bets, then I'll just call him down from there on out.
If MP2 3bets, I'm done. If MP2 stays in the hand I'm not thrilled, but I...

Re: KQs Middle Position
I'm going to try a grunch.
Preflop: Raise. You're first in. The hand does play multiway but it plays well shorthanded, too. But I think the reason you raise with this hand is because your...

The coldcalls preflop suggest to me a pretty reasonable likelihood of CO or Button holding a small PP. And with button betting the turn and you sandwiched after the BB donks the river, I don't think...

Since you 3bet the flop and checked the turn, I'd worry that people easily spot your draw and will check. So for that reason I just bet out.

Re: One more- pocket 8\'s in late position
I couldn't tell from your post whether their were 3 callers including UTG or 2 including UTG. Either way, I'm more likely to call here than raise preflop. It's pretty sweet when you're holding a PP...

Re: line check with loose players
I would have played it the same way except I think you can 3bet him on the flop. It's unlikely he's holding 2 hearts so it's for value.
I don't understand the c/r, really. I think the risk that...

Re: Help with Loose Passive Players?
When a loose passive player re-raises you, that's when you know you're in trouble. Until then, it's value betting all the way.
The reason these situations are value bets is that because they play...

I think you call down here. It's essentially the same action as on the turn, with the BB leading out and UTG+1 raising. You only fear 3 hands (AA, QQ, and K10). You can't give either villain...
