Re: AQo Live - Am I Applying SSHE Correctly

Why were you raising the flop? your opponents are super loose and excessively cold calling, so if the raise is to try and take the pot, there's not much chance of that. I think there's value in the...

Re: Brier would have folded

I think the fact that neither flop raiser raised pf sways me toward folding. There's a greater chance they hold something that connected hard with the flop. However, utg might raise a J hoping you...

Isn't this a WAWB situation with his pfr % being so low? If you're ahead to KK then calling down makes money if you're behind to AA or AK you'll...

Re: AK

What's the reasoning on betting a four str8 river? Are you trying to induce a bluff raise? The river puts up one card str8 possibilities and makes two pair for a str8 draw that was calling on the...

Re: ATs makes middle pair

thanks J, that makes sense, especially when the consideration of bluffing a K or Q comes in, you can't do it if you check.

Re: Am I missing value here?

really you're only likely behind 33 or AA, on the river I think it's a check raise for value, especially since the CO will have to call before you raise.

Is checking horribly weak and if so why? Thanks for anyone who feels like explaining this.

Re: AKo in a small pot and I\'m not happy with my hand...

I think it changes the hand alot if you bet the turn and are raised or called there. It's a very different decision than calling after checking.

Re: AKo in a small pot and I\'m not happy with my hand...

I think the size of the pot is a big factor here. It's small and really the only thing you have here that makes you inclined to call is that your opponent is weak. Maybe this is more of a NL thing...

Re: KJs from BB

Think of what you're beating and what you're losing to and figure out how likely each is.

Re: trap hand - QTo

the only card that could be worse for you on the turn is something like the 7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif. The str8 draw didn't make it, but this is LLHE, so I don't think he's betting the scare card...

Re: AA in small blind to a raise

(grunch)

If you're not slowplaying (which I don't think you are since you donk the flop) then raise PF. If you get capped then you can actually consider KK or JJ, and you can probably rule out KJ,...
