Re: Working out the percentages - seventh street
Often you can make reasonable inferences about hole cards. For example if someone is betting agressively against a threatening board, it follows that he has good cards in the hole. I thought of this...

Ideally we would have clear rules uniformly enforced. Incidents like this one show up deficiencies in both the clarity of the rule, how the rulebook wording is publicized, and how enforcement. All...

Re: re-raise fold?
I'm over my head here but will add my 2 cents anyway.
Since you did not raise third, he may be putting you on a 3 flush plus 5's. Since the 6 /images/graemlins/spade.gif is out, you cld even have...

How Do You Play this on the End?

Do you bet the River? Do you call the raise?

Re: Rolled 8\'s in a Big Multi-Way Pot
I am a little surprised that Seat 7 didn't raise initially on 3rd -- but he did call a three-bet before the round was over. I really wish I had put in a raise on third & fourth -- I might well have...

Re: Rolled 8\'s in a Big Multi-Way Pot
The main lesson I take from this is to bet my trips aggressively early in this sort of pot with big cards out in several hands.
Seat 7 and Seat 2 both looked very threatening to me on 5th/ 6th --...

Rolled 8\'s in a Big Multi-Way Pot
Seat 7 is a loose player but not outrageously so. Seat 8 and Seat 1 are not very good. Seat 2 is an unknown.
On 3rd I didn't 3-bet thinking I wanted lots of people in the pot. But with so many...

Lots of Decisions
On 4th, 7's 6's 8's 3's and 5's are all live; I'm last to act so thought it's worth seeing another card.
On 5th, I have an open-ended straight draw to go with my live 7's, so thought it's worth a...

Re: Versus Wild Man
Given this player's betting, he could have any random holding as his down cards. If my math is correct, that makes the likelihood that he hasn't got a five as a downcard about 85%.
