Re: 10NL 6max JJ as SB, PFR by tighty

You can't really play for only set value, so I'd 3-bet to ~2.

He went all in then and I folded.

10NL 6max JJ as SB, PFR by tighty

Button is relatively tight ( < 10%), rather passive. Can be pushed off by aggression. Hasn't shown any obvious stealing attempts before.
Button's stack: about 6$, I cover

I have JJ as SB....

Re: Full House on flop as SB - multiway pot

Thanks guys, that makes sense.

I basically just called preflop because of UTG+1's big stack. I'll consider pushing next time.

I still won the hand though (of course /images/graemlins/cool.gif )

Re: Full House on flop as SB - multiway pot

How about pushing on the flop, hoping somebody calls with an ace (pretending we have a flushdraw here)

How about slow playing and just checking and hoping for somebody drawing dead for a flushdraw...

Full House on flop as SB - multiway pot

I called preflop because I already got too many callers for a raise. Is this correct?

What's the best action on the flop?

Holdem No Limit - 200 BB

UTG (2,720)
UTG+1 (8,100)
MP (4,170)

Re: QQ is this a no brainer... and which way?

player2: the ladies
player3: 77+,AJs+,KJs+,QJs,AQo+,KQo

Re: AK as BB in a raised pot

Ok thanks guys. I did exactly this and villain showed JJ. I put him on a range of 99+,AJs+,AQ+,KJs,KQ and including FE I pushed. I presume that's the reason why we push here, isn't it?

Should this...

Re: KQ.. too weak or OK?

Interesting hand. What is villain trying to achieve with his min-reraise? Lets just hypothetically assume villain is a 2p2 student. First mistake is that min-reraises are a no-no here in 2p2 because...

NL20 6-max, KK vs AAx flop and flush draw

I knew MP would call preflop. MP was fairly loose PF and usually called any PFR (which were seldom enough here). Two hands before I raised UTG with QQ and got villain to fold on a Kxx flop with a pot...

Re: QQ overpair facing shove on flop

Yeah, this looks like a fold to me too. If he was quiet all night, limped in with a small PP, makes a set on the flop and sees that you're raising him. As villain with a PP I would always push here....

Villain raises about 30% PF, maybe 70% from button, so my reraise was based on a read. I expected villain to fold PF, so I didn't mind my bad position.

Re: Playing against short stack limpers.

Is the FE higher when raising a short stacked limper instead of a 'normal' limper?

Re: $25NL - flopped a straight on monotone flop

Surely bet (3/4 pot). If he's on a draw or has TP or anything less than an already made flush the flop is as scary to him as it is to you. I would expect a fold in many cases. If you get called, well...

Re: Easy fold here with AK, right?

Good fold, I agree. You rarely see mid pairs in a raising war. In the middle of a raising war I usually only stay in with AA,KK,AKs.

fold pf.

My instincts say fold on the flop, too... but as an alternative, how about floating?
