Re: 88

I assume it's 4 to the flop.

Raise, but I'd fold if played back at.

Re: Variance is a bitch, I have to drop down, when can I go back up?

Kerowo got the answer spot on in the first post. I assume you can afford a few dollars to reload.

If your aim is to increase your bankroll in the long run play at whatever limit you think will...

Re: Overcars again...AQs

Think it depends how many players are at the table. The fewer there are the more inclined I am to call down UI.

Re: J3

I don't think you are going to win this one, but not sure how to play it either.

As you have 2 others in the pot who seem tied to a draw surely there is some merit in betting/ raising the turn...

Re: Making a living at the microstakes limit holdem online

I will offer you a little more encouragement. I think it’s contradictory of many posters here to imply you can’t make money, when I’m sure they would all agree that it is a game of skill. If it is a...

Re: the ol\' call-4bet

Don't know what limit you're playing or the positions of the limpers, but I think anyone holding 99 would have probably raised PF.

I think you are probably still ahead. Lead a safe turn, and call...

This post is about trying to get some action from a couple of fish at the table. I usually follow standard hand guides as to when to limp, call, raise, etc. pre-flop, but think the situation below...

Adjusting to Bricks and Mortar

Re: 88

I’d call flop. Don’t think raising is going to fold anyone.

Assuming a safe turn, if it’s checked to us, bet. If it’s bet in front of us, I’d raise it and fold if re-raised. Call river.

If the...

Re: KJs Nut Flush Draw on the flop

What would you do if it comes back to you for 2 bets? Call I presume.

I’d bet/ call.

Re: 99 at Qxx

Can you please explain why you call when CO raises the flop. You think you have good enough odds. Right?

Re: 43s

Call. Value of your hand is far more dependent on the turn than how many opponents you face.

Limpers and raiser are probably partially dominating eachother anyway so not much point getting a...

Re: Villian 3 bets on turn, while I hit top pair, A kicker

You probably should call for one, but I don’t much like how you played it.

This isn’t a steal, I’d have just called pre-flop, then probably folded on flop against 2 opponents, particularly when...

Re: The Legend of Poker: A Return to the Past

Perhaps I'm missing something, but isn't this is a no brainer? Bet. Why were you considering the check? Some way ahead/behind type thing?

If this is your most uneasy hand of the session it must...

Even if you are behind on turn you have a few outs. Out of desperation, I’d lead the turn as I think it’s a bigger error to let anyone get a free card.

standard.

MP has 88/KJ a lot but not enough to make folding correct.

Re: JJ in the big blind with two callers and scary flop

This one has really stumped me.

UTG+1 clearly feels vulnerable; surely you’d slowplay a decent flush on this flop? I assume MP2 has close to nut flush draw, so both UTG+1 and you benefit from...
