Re: NL50: QQ OOP vs 4 bet ai on flop. Was my 3bet bad here?

If we call the flop minraise, how are we responding to a 2/3 to 3/4 pot turn bet, even if the turn bricks? Do we c/rai a blank turn to stack lower overpairs, or just call... or do we check fold turn,...

uh... so many players out there at NL100 and below suck so bad, and clearly have taken no time to learn the game it's hard for me to believe that the fish would just go out of their way to learn how...

Re: \"opening up\" at uNL = drop in bb/100?

You'll naturally go from 15/8 to 15/12 as you move up because there will be way fewer hands with 2+ limpers in front of you, so you'll be limping way less.

Even if you use the exact same PF...

Re: 25NL AK IP in 3bet pot

PFR is fine.

Bet the flop, another diamond either beats you or kills your action. Also good for your cbets if you bet the goods.

Re: NL100: QQ UTG. Am I playing like a mega nit here?

I fold here too, make a note that the CO 3-bet me and saw me fold in a possible squeeze situation, and probably post on 2+2 to see if I'm a mega nit.

Re: 25NL Calling down an aggro player

Odd line from UTG to raise pre, check-call flop and lead turn small. If he's so aggro why's he checking this flop?

This line is probably fine. Keeps pot small and sounds like you're read is UTG is...

Re: 25NL AK from the SB

Given the size of your PF 3-bet, I can't see playing this any other way.

You're pretty much getting in your stack every time here.

Re: NL25 QQ Preflop vs. Aggression after raising- feel lost here.

#1 you have to get it in vs. the shortstack with QQ
#3 is a fold- you got 4bet, this is worse than QQ almost never.

#2 I think is interesting. For those saying 'shove' what range do you put the...

Re: Big Pot Brewing with AK in SB

looks standard if you folded.

a minraise 4-way with 2 players to act after the minraiser is NOT going to be a bluff or a hand you beat without a read that the BB is a total idiot.

Re: Do you guys want a split between micros and low/mid stakes?

No. There is no reason to split as far as I can tell. Certainly no reason in terms of post volume- I can easilly check the forum once or twice a day and read the first two pages and see all the posts.

Re: 0.5/1 $ Facing a Double min raise from horrible player

SB complete with 2 limpers is OK IMHO, although it depends on the table, players, image, etc... if it's a mistake it is not a large one.

Flop made me barf. It's a 4-way coordinated board. Bet...

Re: In your estimation, is 10NL real poker?

1) Yes it is real poker, or as real as online poker gets. You're just exploiting different tendancies. The players at NL25 and often NL50 tables are just as bad, but make different mistakes. NL10 bad...

Re: 50NL AA facing CRAI

I fold this and don't even feel bad about it. If you have 350 hands on the villian and no notes then he's obviously not doing this very much.
