Re: This is NOT the Guy to Pick a Fight With. So Let\'s Break it Down.

What's the Villian's read on the Hero's button play?

If the villian has QQ/77/22, he's willing to check it twice to the Hero before dropping the hammer. If the villian respects the hero's play,...

Re: 100NL AK play-along

I don't understand how you can be so certain your hand is still good againt the button.

The preflop raise didn't do what it was supposed to do and the Hero missed the flop. If MP decides to call...

Re: Simple AQ hand

It looks like the villian has a pocket pair (JJ, TT) that didn't set. I check because of the king on the turn.

Re: 99 first hand

I would fold unless I have a read that the villian would do this with something like A8.

Re: Fun with 1 gap SC

Seems like your plan worked-- I usually only raise with 6 high or better from UTG though. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: 100 NL QQ and villian Leads the turn 6max.

All-in.... villian could easily betting AJ, QJ, KJ... Hopefully they didn't have a TJ or JJ, or TT or 79.

Re: Getting donked on the flop 25NL 6M

I usually fold and wonder why they didn't wait to check-raise my continuation bet.

Re: Checkraised on flop...did I butcher this? $10 NL

I fold the river. Villian bets more if they are bluffing the heart. He wants Hero to call.

Re: Going broke with 1 pair

I'd go with a flop three-bet, call a push. Then I would beat my head against the padded walls when the villian turns over Q7d.

Re: (PP $25 6max) Overpair, villain keeps minbetting

I've seen min bets used to induce bluffs or overplay of medium strength hands. Usually the line is minbet/call, minbet/call, big bet. I think the idea is that a check is an obvious way to show...

Re: My first time in this spot

It's these sorts of moments that make poker worth playing even though normally is so boring.

The button is solid, but does he seem to be putting you on a hands, or just playing his own hand?

Re: PP $25NL Top Set Hand - Instacall?

Hero doesn't have top set, since there's a jack on the board.

Why would the villian raise it so much with the nuts? He could be protecting a medium strength + draw hand. I don't think he has 98...

Re: Gosh darn river

Turn: Why not bet the rag? Pot-control on a draw heavy board? It's about losing control of the pot if the club hits.

I call and let him turn over the A/images/graemlins/club.gif.

Re: Stars 100NL--Evaluate my line

Re: 100nl set, your thoughts?

The hero is only behind two hands (TT, 66). There are several more hands AA-JJ, AKs that could play this way. That range puts the Hero ahead 5 out of 7 possible hands. Enough of an edge for a push.
