Re: QQ
I check-call it getting 9-1, c/f seems really weak to me, but maybe I'm a payoff artist. It also would depend how likely you think he is to bluff the river with 66. Others disagree?

Re: QQ turn decision
Fold the turn. You're almost definitely beat and have 0-1 outs, and even if not, there are tons of outs to beat you.

brick, please don't speak down to me like I'm some kid off the street.

Re: 10/20 AT blind war
I feel like if you're going to call down here, you might as well c/r the turn. He can't 3bet you with anything less than A9, so then it's an easy fold for the same investment as your c/c c/c line,...

Re: I pay off river check-raises
I only want to comment on your call on the flop in hand 1. I really hate it against 2 players, because of all the isolation possibilities the middle player can throw at you on the turn. If an A or...

Rating these on a scale of 1-10 purely on the total impact of doing it several times in the course of a couple hours, in a mid-high shorthanded live game:

Re: QJ sooted
I agree when you say he should fold the turn, but why should he "certainly" fold on the river after calling the turn? The 8c can't possibly change anything. I fold the turn here, but after calling,...

Re: Quick Question: 2 and 3 Chip Structures
damaniac has it mostly right. My normal game is 75/150 with that structure, and when it gets heads up I assess my options based on the opponent. Against weak players, I will raise with the top 1/3...

Re: What does the call mean?
You're not getting any great information from him calling this flop. He'll be calling with about 90% of all hands he could raise preflop with. Barring a K (you're beat), I continue to bet/fold the...

Re: dunno vs a mediocre
In my mind, the only hand that makes sense to beat you is AT. Middling aces like AT are pretty consistent with UTG limping. Also, has the game been a raisefest? He might limp with AA if he expects...
