Re: Poker Theory: Position and Blind Defence

[ QUOTE ]
I am a position nit. For the longest time I would not defend my blinds. Finally, though, I started realizing that it isn't hard to figure out who is raising light from LP and then...

Re: When to commit with PP\'s on ragged overboards.

I do think you need to have a plan for the hand before you bet the flop. The thing is, if you bet you should probably expect one of two options from him : raise or fold. If he raises he probably...

Re: Overbetting: When to use it?

[ QUOTE ]
A less common, but effective, overbet is when the river ensures the pot is [almost certainly] split but you represent a stronger hand.

Here is an example from this afternoon...

Not much time, but I often use it against calling players when I have the goods. They still tend to call a 1.5x to 2x bet.

Re: NL100: AT makes TP OOP and gets raised on the flop

I agree with both of you that coming in with a raise with ATs in EP is not a default play but on the right tables / with the right villains, I def have no problem with it.

Re: NL100: AT makes TP OOP and gets raised on the flop

[ QUOTE ]
Open-limping OOP in NL, without LRRing, is exploitable. Smart TAGs can pretty consistently raise your open-limps and force you to tough decisions. In general, don't you find that playing...

Let me also say this...

This hand shouldn't be a default raise preflop in EP unless you have a table-specific reason.

P.S. This isn't a "drawy flop".

This is not as drawy a flop as say 9s8sX, but it is a drawy flop. I see no merits in checking this flop behind.

Loosen up big time in LP. You can play so many more hands in LP than you are.

FWIW, nearly every time I see a stats post the poster plays too tight on the button, IMO. I think that...

I like FTP. I have rakeback there and it's softer. I still play at Stars some though.

Re: 25NL Value Extraction with quads

I guess this is a good time to mention that I love making some AI overbets on the river. It is generally good to do when you have the pure nuts on a drawy board or to do the same thing as bluffs. ...

Re: 25NL Value Extraction with quads

Well, I probably wouldn't have raised the flop. This is a perfect slowplaying hand. Given that you raised, I would have raised more to try to get your stack in. That means you can bet more on the...

There was no flush draw on the flop, so 43 is the only draw which could have paired. If he might calldown with some ridiculous A-high hand, I like it.

Re: $25 basic squeeze spot

I think it is a pretty good spot against the SB. You will get the button to fold a ton and ATo should fair well this well postflop.

Actually, I think he probably would have bet a Q or maybe even a pair of 5's or 7's on the river. I think that he plays JJ-88/66/33 this way about 50% of the time collectively.

I think you can...
