Re: 25NL, JJ, flop Axx

A little ahead of a draw or WB and he put you all in, you have to fold here without a read that says otherwise. His stats look pretty passive. Your bet was fine, about 3/4 pot, he just has you beat...

Re: Not nut flush - How would you play this hand?

If you think you can outplay post-flop, I like the call pf. Good bet on the flop, great turn. I push the river, he'll call with anything getting 4:1 and you're ahead more often than you're behind...

Re: Is top pair A kicker worth it?

You have terrible pot odds and implied odds. To make this call, you need to be ahead well over half the time because I think you are much more likely to lose additional money than win additional...

Re: 25NL Horrible?

The pre-flop call is just giving away money in the long run. You have to fold or raise that.

The river push is horrible. Any hand better than you (and there are lots of them) will call you,...

Re: Deuces never loses!

I think the weak bet screams "strong hand" more than a PSB. Other than the flush draw, this is a very nondescript flop. I think the small $3 bet will scream of a trap to any thinking player, and the...

Re: Lost on the turn, plan ?

I can't see the c/r on the turn. We have a great draw here, I don't see a Q folding unless our raise is big, and we limit our ability to get paid off big when we hit because more of the money is...

Re: Turn Feels Like Getting Hit In the Back of the Head With a Shovel.

I'm pushing this turn because CO will likely call with many hands we have beat, but may not bet some of them. But he'll bet any hand that beats us and I don't think folding here is a good option. ...

I'm confused Paul. I agree with the raise, but on the other thread (raise/call middle pairs), I think you suggested folding 99 from the BB to a raise because you don't like to play middle pairs post...

Re: Poker Theory: Re-raising mid-pairs from the blinds

I would re-raise against a single player in any position except a strong player UTG. I would then c-bet nearly 100% of the time. I take this line for two primary reasons 1) Increases my FE on the...

Thanks for the responses - basically we're never folding is the msg! And no this wasn't a bad beat. I thought about it for like 3 seconds and called expecting to chop.

Re: Theoretically, How Deep Before I Consider Folding This?

I don't think you ever could fold this. If you think it's a chop, you would obviously call for your 50% equity on the existing pot. So the only question is comparing how often you are ahead to how...

Re: I have AA, I check/fold

I don't think you can check this turn unless you're planning to c/r. c/f seems out of the question to me. Button is betting because he thinks you are weak or scared.

I would have bet out turn, I...

Re: Best Book or reference for no limit, $1/$2 cash casino game

I love the Little Green Book. If you haven't read Theory of Poker, definitely read that.

I also like Pot-Limit and No-limit Poker by Bob Ciaffone and Stewart Reuben. It's very different and...

Re: What do you think of this flop push?

I would definitely push. Any card that makes your hand will be unlikely to get paid off unless you push, so no other play makes much sense on the flop. He's still got a lot of chips, push seems...

Re: Bottom set raised pot vs nit

I couldn't make this call. You have to go with your reads when they are as solid as this one. You don't give too many post-flop stats, but it sounds like he continues to be weak passive post-flop...
