Re: AQs headsup against a TAG reraise

[ QUOTE ]

After the river blank, I check intending to fold to a bet.


[/ QUOTE ]

Too fancy.

You're losing the whole pot when villain bets and you still have the best hand.

Re: 1/2 limit hand. Time to slow down?

[ QUOTE ]
I would raise and call a river 3-bet.

I think its still a bit early to be slowing down, as villain could have a Q high straight or trip T's, as opposed to a full house.

Re: Is this a good time for WA/WB or should i pop the flop?

WA/WB is usually most effective when you and your opponent have shown strength preflop, and the pot is heads-up. You can narrow down the opponent's range because of the preflop action.

Re: Anyone mind this slowplay?

This is a VERY common mis-application of the "waiting until the turn to raise" concept. A lot of players believe that since there is no way to protect their hand that they should wait for the turn. ...

Re: Omaha8 books

I am currently reading Tenner / Kreiger. It's great for a complete noob like me and probably has some useful stuff in it for real players too.

Re: Art Deco wedding party. *Vintage Clothing* I need help!

Real zoot suits are ridiculous looking and definitely not what you're looking for. Think Harrison Ford at the end of Raiders - double breasted suits and a nice hat.

This situation recently came up in a discussion. The hand is basically made up and may not be the best example -

Re: Skydiving - Trip Report

This is almost exactly consistent with my experience. My heart is going faster just reading about it. Don't be surprised if you sort of "crash" later in the day from being so keyed up from the jump.
