Re: JJ OOP vs a LAG
I don't understand why you don't lead the flop? You said he's a LAG and has been 3betting you quite a bit, so IMO you are beating a lot of his range. I don't think the UTG limp changes much. I think...

Re: Shove here?

CAZOR34 could have any pair and any A, K or Q. Brewhead is calling off more than half his stack. He should have pushed. Why did he not push? Either his hand is weak or he is hoping that...

Re: Poker Stars 100k, What would you do here??
I put all the rest in and here's why.
Your M is already below 10, and in a few minutes it will be lower, so you indeed have to do something here.
A cold call will take you down to 55,000. If...

Re: Please give feedback on my bust-out hand
This is a push and nothing else. Not only is any pocket pair big four handed, your effective M is about 3, and you are deep in the red zone. At this point it's all in or nothing, and you won't have...

Re: 4.40/180
Wanted to say something, but levAA hit it right on the money.
He most likely has an ace, and one of the two aces he could have is the ace of spades, so you definitely can't give him the chance to...

Re: 20/180 GB + FD Deep
Dave,
I'm going to go off of Exit's last post. Good post exit.
Raising with position with a draw heads up is a good play that I myself employ from time to time. You may take the pot right then...

Re: 20/180 GB + FD Deep
Yes I see what you are saying now. However, I don't agree with raising the flop and then calling a push. The ideal play with drawing hands is to keep the pot as small as possible until you do hit...

Re: 20/180 GB + FD Deep
You should be more willing to play this hand with a stack of 10500 than 5000. You can't look at it as 'risking your chips' - in a tournament, you must if you want to make money. If you sit there with...

Re: 20/180 GB + FD Deep
You have an M of 35. Suited connectors play best in late position and a big stack facing a big stack. You have a very good situation here. No way in hell do you fold this pre flop. This is a...

Re: AQo from UTG facing a re-raise (4/180)
This is an easy fold.
1. He re-raised you one seat to your left with several players behind him yet to act. A solid player would do this with nothing short of a premium hand (top pocket pair or...

Re: fun spot with trips....
I think this is a clear fold. A bunch of crappy players they may be, but not all of them are firing and calling and raising big with squa-douche.
So just fold. A table this jittery will likely...

Raising will only get called by hands that will beat you. After checking all the way, the big blind all of a sudden wakes up and bets out of position in a three way hand? The...

bankroll
Conventional wisdom is to play cash games where your bankroll is 1000 the big blind. Anyone know how to choose the level of sit 'n go's? Or the larger tournaments for that matter??
Thanks
