Re: stars 50k - decent draw on turn

I'd bet a little over 1/2 the pot (400), to try to see a cheap river or (hopefully) get a fold.

If he shoves, I call getting ~2.1-1

Re: Bad all-in call at $3+R?

This looks like a standard call to me, barring some sort of unusual read.

Well-played!

Re: Do you fold the turn after a few mistakes....

I'm inclined to think you're beaten.

Though you're getting good odds for a call, I fold here and keep my 540 in chips.

Re: 2.20$ SAT - First Hand 1010, unusual action

With only (2) players left to act after you, I take my chances and call. There's a good chance you have the best hand, so you're not necessarily playing for set value. Your position will minimize the...

Re: small buy in, just after buble facing big bet on flop holding trip

This seems like a results-oriented post. I'm sorry if the guy had the straight, but there's no way in hell you can fold here.

There are far too many hands in which you're ahead, esp against an...

Re: TT Level 1

I like a larger flop bet, in a 4-way pot (at least 300). Anyone who'll call for 200 is likely to call for 300.

The turn play seems fine. The only draw you're really concerned about is 65 (98...

Re: $10 - 45 man SNG - AK in SB

Yes, I think you should've raised to ~1000, to try to end it there. If it doesn't end there, at least you have control of the hand after the flop.

There's no way in hell you're folding against the...

Re: Push or fold in a qualifier!

Easy shove. Your stack is pathetic, and you'll need to pick up some pots to have a chance of qualifying.

There's no reason to do any math here. You have very little fold equity, if any, and as you pointed out, if called you are likely way behind. Fold this hand and wait for a chance to be...

Re: in BB w/ AKo v SB re-re-raise

This is a tremendously easy call. The fact that you're up against the SB makes it even easier (he could be making this move w/ all kinds of hands).

You should be thrilled to get all-in here for...

Re: 4/180: Flopped set on ugly board, worse turn - line check

Your pf action may be worthy of debate (though I won't claim it was a mistake). Against awful players who limp w/ weak hands, I think I'd prefer a small raise to increase the chances of doubling up...

Re: Flopped a monster against Re-raiser...

Smooth-call the flop. If he missed, a raise will probably make him drop (barring any reads that indicate otherwise). If he has something he likes, you'll know on the turn when he bets again.

Take...

Re: I want to smack my [censored] across BB\'s nose (how\'s the limp)

Based on your table feel, I can't dispute your rationale behind limping.

However, I'd make sure this is an exception, and not the rule. If I feel like playing KJs here, I'm usually raising.

Re: SB shoves ~4BB, I have A5o in the BB

The range you're assigning him is far too tight. The following range is more realistic:

22+,A2+,K2+,Q2+,J2s+,J5o+,T5s+,T8o+,96s+,98o,86s+,87o,75s+,65s-54s

Very easy call!

Re: Ace high facing river bet, late in tourny

Without a read, I'm folding this. The villain's line is typical of someone who's slowplaying. He's hoping you bet again on the turn, so he can pop you there. Instead, he's betting the river, because...

Re: QQ OOP on A high flop

I prefer betting-out to check-raising. I'm trying to keep the pot small, and get to showdown.

The only thing check-raising accomplishes, is that it's more likely to prevent you from being bluffed...

Re: PS daily 50K

I'm going all-in. The description of MP2 gives me the ability to do so w/ confidence.

I highly doubt MP1 is holding anything better than JJ.

Re: In BB, call/shove(fold?) KQ?

SNG is better than shoving here, as you only have K-high and are almost gusranteed to get called.
