Re: 5CD: Embarrassing Confession
Last night, PL 5CD 2/4. UTG limps, everyone limps. I'm in the SB and call with 77xxx. UTG draws one, but the button stands pat.
UTG has the button covered, and they both get into a raising war...

Re: Folding pat hand?? 3/6 5cd
The button's play makes no sense. He cold calls a raise, then caps when you make it three bets. If he truly has a pat hand, what's he gaining by cold-calling/standing pat?
That he's playing with...

Re: Bet sizing in PL 5CD
Don't mini-raise pots with "good" hands.
Let's say you're UTG with kings up, the game is 1/2 and you raise to $4. The button and SB call. There's $14 in the pot, giving the BB 7-1 odds -- easily...

Re: Appropriate draw play?
Easy fold, and from the SB as well.
From the BB, at 2.75-1, it's not as bad as it is from any other position because you could pair your ace and that might be the best hand.
Implied odds don't...

Mistake No. 1 is not up for debate, but I will try it anyway:

Re: You know you might be a 5CD fish when ...
Methinks I worded this poorly.
Once the villian, ie fishy, sees that I'm drawing 1 out of the blinds, there's absolutely ZERO reason for him to hold a kicker with his AAKxx hand. He's clearly...

The only time I stand pat-bluff is when I've accidentally raised pre-swap with trash and AM NOT RERAISED. Since I never stand pat-bluff with pat hands, my more alert opponents will fold.
