Re: 4/180 - value bet straight on the river?
I think the river check is correct, my guess is you don't have the best hand here. I believe you should've raised more on the turn when you made you're straight. With a pot at 620 when it gets to you...

Re: $11 6 max on stars, what to do against donk?
Well according to your own list of villains range. Most of it got there on hand #1, this would be a crying call in the worst sense. Even though he's a donk he's almost never bluffing here.
Hand #2...

In all fairness, his ten was good. He made a great call on the river, maybe we can give him some credit and not just call him a donk/fish that couldn't lay down middle pair.

Re: 103s in BB, multi-way pot.
Any other thoughts here? Hands like these are one of my main weaknesses. Does everyone fold this hand for $5 into $35? Is it because of reverse implied odds?
Also, given how the hand actually...

Re: FTP 24+2 Bluffing the River Am I really bad?
I don't like this line against the type of player open limping a hand like Q10o. The fact that he has limped, then cold called ur raise, then called the turn signals that he is in defensive mode and...

Re: 100 nl TP and FD on turn
I'm assuming this was 6max. I think the reason you were so lost in this hand is you never took control, played it very passively.
Here are my thoughts at each stage:
Pre-flop: I'd like to see...

Re: AA 4-way with horrific flop.
