Re: A hand against Swami...
PreFlop, In MP, I wouldn't open limp this. I'd usually fold it, and sometimes come in with a raise. I don't like the open limp.
On the flop, I would reraise his raise. Get more bets into the pot, and maintain control of the betting.
As played, I called the river, but:
I don't know Swami. But he is drunk? Drunk enough to think that AK, AQ, or AJ is worth a river value bet here? I don't think he has a 5. If he has a set, you have to just pay him off. If he hit his flush, so be it. The pot is huge. Folding incorrectly would be a much bigger mistake than calling incorrectly.
