Re: call this bluff?

Looks ok to me. I can see argument for checking the turn. the spade draw would be runner runner. If he called for the straight draw, the 4 probably was not his card. 5 or 8 is scarier. That...

Re: Mid set with 33; could this be a fold?

re-raise all in and curse the gods if he has JJ. if you fold this every time, you lose in the long run.

Re: Passive KK against tags...

i like 4bet preflop. small blind could have interpreted button raise as a steal and re-raised with a lot of hands. I also would have raised the flop since your hand is not gonna get better ...

Re: Bet Sizing Question Based on Actual Live Hand

yes... agree now I should have raised pre-flop. It was the third hand I played so I was feeling things out.
As played with the weak limp pre-flop, how about the betting afterwards?

I did...

Re: 200NL KQo OOP

I like how you played it thru all parts and I would fold to the all-in... no opinion on the timing tell... not enough experience to warrant one.

i don't like checking the turn at all...

sometimes you are gonna be trapped, but most of the time you are either in the lead and/or fighting a flush draw.

You have position. Bet 2/3 of the...

Re: 200NL- BlindBattle

I like the idea of calling and re-evaluating on the turn. What good is position if you don't use it when you need it?

Re: Facing huge overbet with a set

you should lead the turn. without leading on the turn, you have no idea what your opponent has.

as played, i'd fold on the river too. It appears to be your lower set vs a higher set or a...

Re: [NL200]Floped FH, how to extract most money?

maybe bet a little more on the flop say $30. The $20 looks suspicious especially when you 3-bet after the flop.

as played, I would smooth call the flop raise. You are way ahead and your...

Re: flush draw runners 2pair against donk .5/1

i have a hard time pulling the trigger in these situations, but my take is you should raise on the flop.
1) it might make some better hands fold (88-JJ) or others
2) it might get you a free...

Re: AK - best line?

I would normally lead out on the turn with about $15 as a value bet. I think the check/call on turn is ok, but I fear any free draws or losing value.

As played, I would call turn and then c/c...

Re: Do I have the nuts, or is is possible he has me beat?

call on the river is fine... I would not shove to be safe.

I would have ruled out QT and KT. I would think button would bet those on the flop with two checks in front and a big drawing board?

Re: 97s misplayed on all streets?

Re: 200NL: A pretty basic smallpair PF question

raisy daisy 4BB + each limper or $10. you have position and just a limper. might just take the pot down here and if not you have position on the flop against everyone.

Re: NL 200 : RR pot w\\ AQ..now what?

not sure I like the pre-flop raise OOP with just A-Q against so many players. If there are donks, then we don't expect them to fold and you are now OOP and will miss the flop 2/3 of the time. ...

Re: [NL200] Standard fold river with TPGK ?

maybe bluff the turn on the flush card then be prepared to fold a raise or a bet on the river?

you can only beat a bluff on the river the way this was played in my (very) humble opinion.
