Re: AQ on dangerous board
I fold with or without a read. Even though a set is unlikely QT isn't. And JJ isn't a distant possibility. You can call if you know that villain has KJ but not AJ. I think it's a clear fold.

That's an understatement. The only guy who calls down more than him is orangedust.

Re: ***Official FTP Regs Thread***
Yea, I have seen him overvalue naked aces in a bb and small pairs on broadway flops. But after 10k hands, he is only one of 3 that I have who is a winner. There are 5 others who are near breakeven.

Re: Hands, that frustrate me
I gonna be a douchebag for a minute. There are two ways to look at this:
Mathematically
2-1 that he has a spade draw, an out-of-left field six, or that one of your draws will come in.

Re: AKs turn/ river play
Just because a guy is tight doesn't mean he won't cold call A4s or K4s. A4s is even standard for most TAGs. However, he still probably has a Ten but after 160 hands you don't know how he plays...

Re: Checking the turn in position
In hand one, betting has to have some merit. Weak Ace high hands will often fold and worse hands don't have the opportunity of bluffing the river. This is why I have been betting the turn here.
