Re: value 3-bet on the river?

Take the free card on the turn. As played, 3-bet the river: your hand looks much more like top pair than the nut straight, and villain could easily just have two pair.

Re: can\'t lay the bullets down

The only set that MP2 reasonably has is 99, and with his PFR and 3-bet preflop it's more likely he's overplaying a big pair worse than yours. (On the turn, if anyone has a set it's more likely to be...

Re: Top two on scary board

I'd cap the flop and raise the turn, calling down from there if 3-bet. There aren't many combinations of AA-QQ left and all those hands usually cap preflop, and raising JT from UTG would be quite...

Re: Pocket eights multiway agains btn raiser

Flop good, fold turn. With those raise numbers, at best you're hoping that he bluff-raised with AK. The vast majority of the time you're drawing to two or less outs.

Fancier play against aggressive villains

I've noticed that since the Paradise reload play has tightened up more and pots are contested more shorthanded and aggressively now. As a result, I've been playing less ABC and check-raising more...

Re: T7s, facing two cold on the turn, do I have enough clean outs?

You're playing that flop way too aggressively, you have TPNK here. Check call

TPMK is the best hand in this small field moderately often. The bet is fine, but I'm just...

Re: The Goldielocks of turn calls

Hand 1: Call down. You'll pick off a bluff or a worse ace here often enough to make it worthwhile.

Hand 2: Fold; pot is small and your outs are questionable.

Hand 3: Call down. His most...

Re: T8s, I speculate

I don't know what the question is

Heh, probably because there are so many of them:

Fold preflop even given reads?

Bet/3bet flop? Check-3bet flop?

T8s, I speculate

BB is aggressive preflop and raises a wide range of hands, including any two broadway, most pocket pairs, suited aces/kings, etc.

Button is a very odd player. His preflop raising and 3-betting...

Re: Small blind completion with T8o

Folds preflop. I want a lot more limpers before I complete unsuited one-gappers like that, even in the SB.

As played c/f river.

Re: Tonight is KJo night. These were all from a ~100 hands at 1 table

Ironically this is the first one you posted where I don't raise preflop.

KJo has a very thin edge against a bunch of bad hands, so I only raise it for strategic reasons like buying the...

Re: AA river call

I call down starting at the turn. I'm seeing two pair or a less likely straight a lot of the time here.

KJo isn't a good enough hand to raise from MP1. I'd have limped in and then gotten out of this pot for $0.00 after seeing that flop.

Re: How Good/Bad was my line

Everything's good up until the turn raise. Why put in 2 bets when you're behind here? There's no value in buying a free showdown with A-high. I'd rather preserve my chance to raise the river if I...

Re: 1/2 limit, KK against aggression - played like a wuss?

You have a premium pair in what looks like a blind steal situation. You're ahead of CO the vast majority of the time here, plus he's not going to credit you with a big hand since you could easily be...
