Re: 2 Venetian $330 DS Hands

In hindsight, I probably like a flop c/r better in hand 1. How bad is this line?

I check, Villain thinks and bets 600. I call.

Turn is an offsuit Q.

I check, Villain leads for another 600...

Re: 2 Venetian $330 DS Hands

Accidentally posted without 2nd hand.

Blinds are 150/300. I have 9k, without showing down a single hand. Player two to my left just busted and a big stack with 30k just moved in. He limp...

2 Venetian $330 DS Hands

Starting stacks of 6k. I have literally not played more than one hand besides my blinds due to unplayable hands. I raised once and showed AKo when table folded around. Button has been very...

Binions Classic

24 players remain. I have ~72k, after doubling the short stack at our table with 44 v. AA five hands earlier. Average stack is a little over 110k. Player directly to my right came to table short...

Re: Any places with vacancies within walking distance of the WSOP?

Imperial Palace - it's cheap and on the strip. Then grab the aforementioned shuttles from either Harrah's or Caesar's, it worked well for me last year.

Re: Pretty simple Venetian 1k hand.

I like the logic, curious how this worked b/c I almost always read the leaving one big chip behind as a bet of weakness. That said, if weak players read this as strength, I need to incorporate this...

Re: Satellite hand, down to the end

My first reaction upon reading was that you're ahead. Despite that, I don't think it's worth a call because of your current chip stack. It doesn't seem to be worth the risk, especially if you can...

Re: Tough top pair spot deep in stars 20k guarntee 109

I'd be stunned to see AK in his range, but i think most other Kings and Tens are in his range along with sets as well. It's obviously a strong line, but I think he shows you KJ, K9, AT, QT, etc....

Re: TPNK. 6 way action (109)

I think it's a call, but marginally so. I think pocket pairs should at least be considered as a minor part of his range, maybe 22-88, along with suited connectors similar to yours and maybe suited...

Re: Stars $109, 9Ts from Annette_15\'s HH

I like it, frequently takes down the pot right there unless opponent has an ace. I think she doesn't get looked up often by jacks and smaller pairs fold. Plus, it's not like she doesn't have outs...

Re: $100 live tourney

Tournaments are in Pittsburgh, which I'm thinking is a little far for you to travel from Texas.

Re: A/Q^3

I'm aware of the odds in hand 1, but doesn't the mini-raise preflop just scream of a big hand? I mean either AK or TT-AA, not a single one of which I can beat...

Considering this, you prefer a fold in hand 2 then?

Re: 3 Blind Mice

With Hand #1, is it so bad to turn down what I can guarantee is a coinflip with 20bb still? This play isn't common for me, since I'm usually a let's put it in and race type, but I felt like the...

It wasn't the river. I called and walked right into 56hh, which was not what I was expecting.

Re: How to max value from this AA in 20/r/a?

I like shoving as well, checking screams of a K. 6k doesn't seem like a terrible option either, as a c-b trying to take down the pot.

Re: Early DS hand

I agree with betting more typically, but I thought the repeated 120 amount would look weaker and entice a raise.

Suited Aces, maybe ATo, AJo? 66 and 88 are obv possibilities as well. Turn c-r seems to indicate significant strength, along with betting more than half his stack, suggesting his commitment to this...
