Re: NL100: AQo, I am ever good here?

With no reads (and presumably he has no reads on you), I fold.

Re: JJ facing EP raise and caller ???

I'd call in the first hand for set value. In the second, I don't think folding is a bad play. I don't think he's re-raising weak at NL25.

For step 6 I used OPR and SS to check out opponents as they registered and I passed up a few tourneys when I saw too many good players there.

Re: NL50: Nuts on the turn,Board pairs on the river.

I like the preflop and post-flop play. As played, I call on river.

50NL - QQ postflop after donk bet allin

Just sat down an orbit ago, so no read on villain. Is this an easy muck when UTG goes allin postflop?

Eek, bet more on the turn and then you can fold this more comfortably, I still think you were right in laying it down though.

50NL - Too aggressive on button?

New to NL50 (I just moved up), PokerStars (which, in general, is much more passive than FTP) and this table. So no reads. Am I too aggressive preflop? I floated the flop to try to take it away on...

Re: NL Theory & Pactice or Profesional No Limit?

I think both are great books and I read them in the order that they came out. But if I had to do it over again, I'd read PNL before NLHTP.

Re: NL25: Mid Pr, Flush draw on flop facing Rs OOP

I like the complete pre-flop and I'd call on the flop. You're flipping a coin with any J or overpair and you're behind a set. CR on turn if you hit 2 pair or flush.

Re: NL25: AKs makes TPTK against calling station

Harrington is great for tourneys, but only ok for cash games. I'd really recommend Professional No Limit Holdem, by Flynn, Mehta and Miller.

Preflop, villain min-raises UTG. This is a big hand a...

Re: 25NL TPMK - go all in to protect or check because i hate my kicker?

I fold preflop. You're in EP and ATo can't take any heat when you flop top pair. As played, I am done on turn when I am called by THREE players. They're not all drawing often enough to make a...

Re: NL25- random trash flops 2 pair- committed on turn?

Re: NL25 how to get the best of it?

Bet both hands. In the second hand, if I call, I'm going for a set since overcards flop so often. I'd probably re-raise since you're out of position and have a top 5 hand to win it preflop or at...

Re: WCGRider\'s 25 NL Day 1

Hand 1: I fold. Without a read, you are at least against a better T if not a FH with 9T. It was a limped pot so tough to put the villain on anything specific.

Hand 2: I check behind on the turn...
