Re: God I\'m so clueless 300bb deep
I don't like betting the river here without a clear idea of what you do if you're raised. It seems to me that he could easily have an 8 here, but also that a player like this may well bluff raise...

Re: can i call this river?
c/f the turn. He may be bluffing, but there are an awful lot of hands that beat you here, espacially as he may have been trying to c/r the flop.

Re: NL25: Flopped combo draw
I quite like a call here, unless you think he will keep firing without an ace. If he has an ace or a set you need to hit to win, and anything else he probably plans to c/f the turn. Also he'll be...

Re: I [censored] hate JJ
14 preflop, and then 35 into the (then) bigger pot seems good. Folding overpairs in reraised pots against 55/25s is not usually a good plan, and I don't see much that makes me change my mind here....

Re: flop top 2 but I fold
Read would be helpful, but on such a wet board I'm not folding here. Villain could have any pair with either a straight or flush draw, J9, Q9, any combo draw, or a flopped straight here. Almost...

Re: sd vs a raise
Preflop is fine, although folding is OK too. Flop is good. Turn is awful. C/f or betting 3/4 of the pot are both reasonable lines without a read - obviously villain has a 9 here some of the time. If...

Re: Overpair with 2 callers to the turn
Realistically, at this stage you can't say much about their ranges. I would imagine that they could have any pair - they both seem so passive preflop that they may well never 3bet, so they could have...

Re: Common River Spot I Still Struggle With
Call - I don't think most players check a better hand behind on the turn with straight and flush draws there. It's possible villain has sucked out on the river with a hand like 89, 99 or JT, but...

Re: JJ reraised pot line check
Impossible to say whether this is good without any information on villain. Against a lot of players, check/folding the turn is probably a better bet here, unless you know he likes playing suited...

Re: 400NL - Villain 3-bets from SB. What to do?
Anyone fancy giving me a range that I should be continuing with here preflop? What about if someone starts repopping my CO/Button raises more often? I feel its pretty exploitable to open a wide range...

400NL - Villain 3-bets from SB. What to do?
Early on in a session, I haven't played any big pots before this hand. Villain runs at 21/14/2.8 over 800 hands, and the only note I have is that he 3-bets preflop more than his stats suggest,...

Re: Small straight + redraw vs super agro. 3handed
If you plan to check/fold here, you shouldn't play this sort of hand, as it will rarely make the nuts - because all the cards are small you frequently make the small straight, small full houses and...

Re: Being a nit at low-stakes PLO: a shame?
I think passing 88 on an 8JJ board is pretty weak-tight, and that you should be repotting here. You may get an opponent with a J and weak kickers to lay down the hand, and getting it in against one...

Re: I hate JJ so much
Most people who are pretty readable/passive postflop don't shove here on a bluff. I find this line is often a monster - trip queens seem quite likely here.

Re: Baluga theorum tested (sql stuff)
You also need to take into account that two pair is often a result of a paired board, and that TPTK can still therefore be good in some cases where villain's hand is technically two pair. For...

Re: is it super standard to jam draws like this?
What else can you do? You are favourite against anything but a bigger flush draw or a set, and a lot of the cards that make your hand make it easy for a villain to get away from an overpair. If you...

Re: AK the nuts. Fold against a shortstack?
How many hands do you have on villain? Aggression takes a lot longer than other stats to settle down to a reliable number. Unless you have 300+ hands, I wouldn't think of laying this down here.

Re: i read bdaws JJ post.
Checking the flop here is pretty bad, I think, because it is such a wet board. If villain does have a draw you need to charge him quite heavily here, as you won't be sure which turncards do and don't...

Re: NL200 - 97s vs TAG on FTP
Fold preflop both times, especially as you are out of position.
Only c/r all in on the flop if you think you have any fold equity here. I think you have very little, and you are better to play...
