Re: River bluff, is this just spewing? 100r
Give up after the flop.
Once you check the turn the river bet looks like a bluff overbet. If he has an Ace he'll call, b/c he thinks his A4 will chop.
I'm not sure if I like opening this hand...

Re: A goofy way to play a hand
I didn't raise BTF b/c if I were reraised I would pretty much have to fold. If aggressive players were behind me to act I don't play the hand.
Raising the flop is probably the best play, but...

A goofy way to play a hand
$1000 live buy in event. Start with t2000. It's round 2 with blinds of 25/50.
Very loose player in small blind. Big blind hasn't shown any hands. I'm in the hijack seat with 4d5d. I open...

Re: Two Live Overpair vs. Flop Shove Scenarios
Hand 1: good read, good call, bad luck
Hand 2: You flopped gin, unless the villian catches runner runner for a flush he's drawing mighty thin. Calling and letting him bet the turn and/or river...

Re: Two Live Overpair vs. Flop Shove Scenarios
Hand 1 is pretty close and my default mechanism is to fold.
Hand 2, the reraise from the small blind, makes the hand pretty transparent. Unless villian is exhibiting fifth level thinking, I would...

Re: Sick satellite KK spot
I have never folded KK BTF, but folding seems to be closer than most people think. I have no idea who these players are, but assuming they are good, the first raiser should have a very narrow range,...

Re: UTG raiser on K86A board
The Ace is a good card to bluff. Unless the villian is a total idiot I don't see how the Ace could have helped him.
It's unlikely he's slowplaying a set or AK. If he calls a turn bet triple...

Re: Stars 22-1r-1a
Barring any reads I could be talked into folding, but given
your description call and suck out against villians Aces or Kings.
I would expect villian most of the time to have a medium
pocket...

Re: Stars 109 FO, Level 2 Weird Spot
I would fold. Unless villian is an idiot it should be transparent that you have AK with your flop check. I doubt very much villian has KQ, KJ, etc. The only logical hand that he may have that you...

Re: $1000 Mega Satellite: AQo

But for the record, I pushed, the big blind...

Re: Hand from a few Sunday Millions ago
How do you possibly sense weakness with the flop call? Not everyone will raise with a draw or a pair in this scenario.
I don't like the turn bet. All hero has is a weak Ace high. The only hand...

I decided to push on the river and villian timed out and folded. Retrospectively I believe my play was pretty dumb but I guess it's better to be lucky than smart. With the board pairing unless I'm...

Of course it's a horrible card but if I check, unless villian is a bigger idiot than me, I'll lose virtually 100% of the time. Is it possible for me to take him off his hand? Normally I would check...

I probably have a pretty tight image. I open raise from the button with 45s to $19. Small blind calls. Big blind folds. Small...

Re: WSOP ME day 1, worst turn card ever.
Preflop I guess your play is ok. I'd prefer having a slightly better hand and also in most scenarios if both blinds call you'll be first to act assuming the raiser bets first, although this did not...
