Re: Top pair on a troubling board with a somewhat aggro player

That's what I thought at the time, but you can't get them all right

Top pair on a troubling board with a somewhat aggro player

2/5 NL at the Borgata

Villain is a loose and aggressive player, although not totally crazy. He likes to bet his hands and I've seen him make a handful of bluffs over the course of a couple of...

Re: TPGK with AQ on a dry board under pressure. How did I play this ha

Calling in the hope that he will slow down on the river is not unreasonable. But you need to believe that he could be doing this with just top pair on the flop, otherwise everything else beats you...

Re: 1st hand at table- 5/10 at venetian AA facing all-in on flop

This seems like a huge over-bet with a set or a weird two pair. My guess is that he's semi-bluffing with the flush draw. Or maybe he's just bluffing.

Re: AC: Borg vs. Taj

Go to the Borgata if only for the seats. They swivel and are padded with some sort of memory foam which is way more comfortable than the Taj's fixed and poorly padded chairs.

Re: 2/4 NL -- RR pot turn line?

You can't think you're beat here. Absent other information, I would bet strongly and hope for the best.

Re: 5/10, 2pair, they think I\'m tilting

Sure. You've most likely have the best hand (AK doesn't make sense here, and if you've run into another set that's too bad) If you didn't feel that your image was loose, you might want to play this...

Re: 200NL - AQ in 3-bet pot

You definitely shouldn't shove on the flop. If you think he's getting out of line with his bets, you want him to make the big bet on the turn. If you shove you lose the potential equity of him making...

Re: RIVER C?RAI

I think you have to fold. Any hand that's playing straightforwardly has you beat, either because they slow played something, or because they hit two pair or a small straight on the end. A bluff...

Re: NL 100...sucking at drawing hands..suited ace.

I would also fold the flop. The only thing you don't beat is a straight bluff, and this would be a really bizarre spot to do that. Also, A4, even suited is not a particularly good hand, even played...

Re: Big PP vs a PF CR and an accidental check

My table image was pretty tight. 1/2 NL at the Borgata is typically loose/passive, and makes getting fancy a losing proposition against most players. This guy played fairly well, and was pretty...

Re: AQ, river brings flush. Easy fold right?

this is probably a flush. He could have been playing a worse ace aggressively, but not betting on the turn when a safe card comes out makes this unlikely. A non bluff hand that you can beat most...

Big PP vs a PF CR and an accidental check

Playing 10 handed at the Borgata, 1/2 NL.

I'm interested in how you would play this hand post flop. Villain appears to be a solid player, is not loose nor extremely tight.

Villain is sitting in...

Re: AQ 2 pair on river, facing big c/r

You pretty much have to call here. You're only beat by a set, and a lot of people would raise with a worse two pair. The size of the bet is suspicious as well, and you may be looking at a bluff,...

Drawing to a full on an ugly board

I'm interested in any comments on the play of the hand at any street.
The villain has just sat down. Otherwise, the table is playing very loose, with several players limping with any two cards.

Re: NL100 TT overpair

You can't really be the flop or turn too much harder, and you do need to bet them. There also isn't much that you can beat on the river (maybe a hopeful lower pp, but unlikely). He might have been...

Re: I get jiggy preflop, and my head spins postflop

On the third hand it looks like he picked up a straight or a goofy 2 pair on the end. The bet looks too small for a bluff, particularly for a splashy player. Nevertheless, I think you have to call...

Re: Folding Queens preflop???

You can not call this. AI's preflop in cash games have a way of turning up as aces, or at least kings. His play is weird, but you can't get carried away.

Re: I had no idea what this meant

With that holding, you're only beating a bluff, in which case you need some kind of line on his play. If you don't have it, you need to fold

Re: trips get raised allin

Yes. He also probably has trips and your kicker is most likely good, given that he is playing random cards from the unraised BB.
