[gir]

Are these right or am I playing backwards loss-inducing poker?

AJs fine.

97s fold.

[Poker_is_Hard]

First hand seems ok.. pretty big reraise preflop, but ok.

Now the second hand is another story.

Raising utg with 97s and then calling a shove with a 9 high flush draw is not standard.

Am I missing something???????

Hand 1 looks fine to me.

Hand 2 is a spew. Assuming your heart outs are good, you need 2-1 to call on the hand, and you aren't getting that. I'm assuming your 9 or 7 outs are not good.

H1 is good but wtf @ hand 2???

[Panthro]

h1 yes
h2 no

[gir]

Yeah...musta been flush tilting. I'm still tilting...God, just made a terrible all-in call down with JJ...geez, I look at their stats, and they're terrible...but I keep falling for the same tricks.

Hand 1 is fine, you have the lead and fold equity here.

Hand 2, yuck. You come off as a flush chasing donk here

2-1? to call a shove with a flush draw?

On the flop, yes. You're 2-1 to hit one of your 9 outs on the turn or river. I don't know exact percentages, but I think it's about 35% chance your flush comes in with 2 cards to come.
