Re: AK against dummy
Fold. You only beat a complete bluff, and many hands beat you here, including sets of 4s or 9s or a crap two pair, possibly KQ. Furthermore, you said you caught him bluffing you earlier, so he's less...

Re: AA on River
Your flop and turn bets should be bigger IMO. Get more value, possibly find out more where you're at. Despite his being a terrible player, this flop is dangerous as is the turn. 2 pairs and straight...

Re: AK double maybe even TRIPPEL barrel?
I don't think double barreling is a bad play, but I'd probably surrender the hand at this point.
I vote against the OOP triple barrel. I don't think it's a good play in these spots in the long...

Re: Super Aggro HU
Just tighten up and wait to get paid. He's just getting lucky, it's not profitable in the long run to predictably cbet and fire double/triple barrels and reraise constantly. Be glad he was there.

Re: Can i fold this river?
Your bet values were spot on. I always favor large bets with 2 pair...more 3/4th pot than 2/3rd pot, which you did well.
Part of me agrees that you have to call the river with those odds..
That...

Re: JJ oop NL100
absolutely check fold the turn. This passive player does not bet into you without a hand. He might have a weak queen, nothing worse. Get rid of the jacks, tough go.

Re: 100NL - Trouble w Kings in dry flop
I think that a shove is probably the best option here. Calling is absolutely absurd and has very little merit. If he has only top pair, you'd absolutely want to shove (lest he hit the turn.
That...

Re: 99 vs donk
Tarheeljks has a great point. If he is such a donk, you need to get a read on him fast. In terms of this hand, I'd lay it down on the flop. Very often bad players get excited by great hands such as...

Re: 100NL - 44 turn call?
Josh, you have a valid point...the hand has been played weakly to this point, the bet was weak and shouldn't have been made, and as a result the villain seems weak.
Even so...the hero has fours....

Re: NL200 - limped pot K5 set
I think at this point you call. I just don't see you getting much value from him if he paired the 7 or 8, and if he has the other king his kicker will probably play and beat yours. A reraise on his...

Re: Stars $4/180 - 3rd hand AA
Why is it absurd? Because it is 10x the big blind! You could argue that raising to five blinds (100) is reasonable (I disagree, I like to make the pot sized bet of 70 here UTG), but a 10x opening...

Re: NL100 - flopped bottom-str8 vs familyaction
I disagree, I think you lay it down. You're up against a better straight, and what's worse, you're also up against either a flush draw or a set or both, and at this level they're not good enough to...

Re: $100NL -> KQ on monotone flop
Reconsidering the situation, your hand was transparent the whole time. That line would make it abundantly clear that you held a queen and sought to protect from another spade.
That being said, I'm...

You should have bet the flop...you'll probably take down the pot, and you'll know where you're at in the hand. As for the river...the reraise is not a good idea, as you know that it is likely one of...

I disagree on a more fundamental level. Consider the situation:
Not very late in the tournament, playing out of position.
There is absolutely no reason to risk a significant portion of your stack...

Re: $20 Party Poker Final Table
Weak plays. I don't know what is worse, calling a raise preflop with 98 out of position, or calling postflop with just a pair of nines.
