Re: Always confusing for me, KQ hits a pair on the turn

Dump it, he's doing this into three players = you're often beat. Especially if he's an unknown. You might continue if you had a favorable read on his range in this kind of spot and if fewer players...

Re: Hero opens from Button - 3bet by mcTAG in the blinds.

My limited experience indicates that a mixture of the methods mentioned in this thread works well, and you can change things up based on situational factors.

For example, if I am up against a...

Re: 25NL - set but that line is too strong...

I can't believe how much concern there is in this thread about a hand like this. Your job on this board with your hand versus this type of villain (and those effective stack sizes) is to get the...

Re: 50nl 6max: 3 hands leading to 4th confrontation

I lead the turn in hand 3. But you're asking about hand 4 ... I'm not sure about the snap call in this spot. You showed three previous hands and in two of them villain overbet with TPTK+, and his...

Re: NL 50 flopped set facing lots of heat

Hmmm, I guess the ranges I posted, especially for BTN, were unconvincing.

It is true that I perhaps overlooked that hero's lead on the flop, assuming his image is solid, looks strong enough to...

Re: NL 50 flopped set facing lots of heat

I played a little with ranges using Holdem Ranger, they may be way off, but I attempted to devise BTN's partially on the basis of CO's image. Note that BTN's range is weighted mostly towards...

Re: Get your n00b out, uNL--Volume 2

How often should I be double-barreling at NL50?

a) Rarely, only against decent/TAGGY people

b) Maybe 20-25% of the time, you need a scary or overcard turn, and a read that villain is NOT a...

Re: 50nl 6max vs 28/24/5/2300 hands

Nay, but I change it to a Yay if you do it with something that has at least 6 outs (and maybe a backdoor draw for good luck!) -- or TT, which, unlike 66, puts just enough of a hurtin' on his calling...

Re: 50NL: 2 hands versus 60/10

Both of these hands look good to me. I basically agree with every action you took in hand 1, from pf to river, and would size my bets similarly.

Hand 2 is debatable pf, as you pointed out, but a...

Re: 50nl, extraction with flopped FH

I'm with Schiester, not that some of the other lines proposed aren't also good.

Tank on flop, then call. Donk any turn for $5 (or something equally offensive), get raised by a huge range....

Re: Playing agressively preflop/OOP against LAG opponents - marginal hands

Just complete and take a flop, for the most part. You'll be out of position versus multiple callers, with no easy way to manipulate the pot size or the action. Save your SB raises for big pairs and...

Re: NL50 - AK 4bet sanity check

If you've never seen him get out of line preflop and your image is solid (you said no real reads, so that's not a terrible assumption given your respective stats), the remaining factor is CO's image;...

Re: AK flops top pair 200bb deep

My (default) line in this spot is bet/call flop, check-call any non-HUGE turn bet, check-call some rivers.

I do this because we're too deep to 3 bet this flop OOP and felt right away or proceed on...

Re: 25NL - TT overpair in 3-bet pot vs donk 150BB deep gets rai on flo

I think I find a fold here. 15 hands isn't a large enough sample to happily stack off in this manner. His preflop sequence is passive/donk-esque, but I expect him to call your flop bet with his Ahxh...

Re: 4 bet bluff

OP,
You might want to check out this link to CTS's journal (http://cts687.livejournal.com/)

It contains older entries. Scroll down to the Sept. 11th, 2006 entry and read what he has to say about...

Re: NL50 - 3bet pot - 4 way

I make it $14 on the turn and have a very hard time folding to a shove; reads on any of these players would help. Are they all loose donks? Looking at pf, CO's hand seems the weakest, UTG's looks...

Re: 50NL - Deepish 4bet pot with a lol flop

Hero bet/calls all-in?

You really shouldn't find a fold given pre-flop and effective stack sizes. And you say CO is not stupid but he looks stupid enough in his pf behavior (notably his call of...

Re: 50nl - Right spot to fold overpair?

How maniacal is villain? I need a good read to continue with this hand. If you look at his limp re-raise PF combined with his bet/3-bet on this low flop, it's hard not to weigh his range toward big...

Re: AA river decision

I call river as played versus this villain, though it's pretty close given his passivity.

Given your opponent's stats I make a reasonable raise on the flop only because his calling range that you...

Re: NL50 - why is \"bet/call, bet\" a bad line?

The thing with a "bet/call, bet" line is that it typically signals a lot of strength, and should be applied judiciously, in my opinion.

In hand one, villain, who's not too aggro, attacks your...

Re: JJ OOP, 3-bet pot 4 ways.....and mayhem ensues

OP, I hope the lesson you take from this hand (regardless of the holdings people showed down here) is that it's better to c/f a non-J flop than invest 35% of your stack OOP just to see what everybody...

Re: NL50: my cards are face up...a better line for a set OOP?

A true nit is automatically worrying about 8x when 3 other players take that flop with his overpair (unless the table is full of nits, which is unlikely.) The board texture is pretty dry too, so he's...

Re: QQ gets flatcalled by semi thinking retard

Wow, um, when you make it $10 on the flop you're basically felting here, especially against a retard, semi-thinking or not. No way can you fold your overpair here getting, what is it, ~3:1?, and...
