Re: Early Venetian DS hand w/KK
This is just one of those hands where you have to take a deep breath, say "well that sucks" and toss your cards away. You obviously have a monster on the flop, and you played the hand just fine. ...

Re: TT 2nd hr $69+6
Pretty easy fold here. Decent raise from EP, and an all in in front of you- not to mention the fact that you're basically covered. Should be able to let tens go here.

Re: Should i call?
Yeah, this hand was just played poorly unfortunately. You shouldn't be raising with KJ in early position, unless you think you can steal- it's just too easily dominated (JJ-AA, KQ, AK). But, if you...

Re: Instant HH from a 4/180
easy fold here- If MP2 hadn't called, you might have had a decision, but you've got a raise before you, you've reraised, and you've gotten an all in and a call in the early stage of a tournament. ...

Re: I\'m baffled, early MTT
Tough position to be in, especially since villain hasn't shown strength on any other street. Only seven hands beat you at this point, and you can eliminate T5 from that list. I would put him on a...

Re: How bad did I play? 2 unrelated hands
The first hand seems pretty trivial except for maybe a reraise on the flop. I'd like to see a bit of a bigger raise on the flop, but other than that, the hand played itself.
On the second hand,...

Re: Did I get too greedy?
Even though we can't see the bet amounts preflop, I don't see why you don't push- you've gotten a reraise out of a guy preflop, indicating he's got a big hand. No need to slowplay, especially with a...

Re: 4/180, bottom two in a limped pot, scary turn
Really tough spot, but you have to fold here- too many hands out there that beat you, plus this guy could have anything based on the way he's been playing. He could have limped with 55, or KT. ...

Re: 4/180: 88 steal vs donkbet on dry board.
There's just not much you can beat in this spot (except a complete bluff with something like AK, AJ, etc.) At best I think you're up against TT. I think you fold here and wait for a better spot

Re: 24+2 77 UTG on the bubble
I think this is one of those judgment call hands. I have no reads on BB so it's tough to make a decent decision with little information. I would fold in this spot since you're a coin flip at best...

Re: 2 tough spots with 77
I think you've just got to take your chances in situation 1 and push. If he's been playing the way you say, he's likely either got junk or something like QT. I think you're in a coin flip spot, but...

Re: Crypto $22. AQ turns an ace. Value-town river?
I think you played this hand fine. The original call of 2400 is fine, as is the call of the extra 3200 preflop since you're getting almost 5 to 1. Checking down is fine, you might have thrown out a...

Re: What do you guys think of this hand?
Would've reraised him preflop. I understand the desire to slowplay in this situation, but he bumped the pot up with one caller and four to act, and you've got to think he has something decent. I'd...

Re: Stars $215 Flop Decision vs. Big Stack
I'd just give it a call- you're getting nearly 3.2 to 1, and you're 2 to 1 to hit. A raise is an option, but if he's playing aggressive he could come in for a big reraise and make your decision even...

Re: TT in the $16 double shoot out
Dude, you've gotta go in with it. It was a mistake folding the 99, and there's a good chance the button folds, or calls/folds. You've got a monster 3 handed hand, and you're shortstacked. Push in
