Re: Some lessons are cheap.......

Boy, does that suck. My condolences. You shouldn't feel stupid--just regret, of course, for the lost pot. It's never happened to me, but I have heard many stories like yours, invariably from the player who had the best hand, realized it after sweating out a scary board, and excitedly fired down...

Re: Nuts flush draw. Check, call or raise ?

The first situation I raise to get more money in the pot now, potential free card, and to maintain aggressive image as I would be raising here with AQ or KQ anyway. By the way, if it gets reraised, in my opinion you only need one caller in between to go ahead and cap it. Be aggressive! The second situation...

Re: I hate dropping the best hand....

Ya you might be right, the game was loose enough where I might have been better off playing the absolute value of my hand. I think I overthought it. As far as your first example goes.... it's quite different than my hand, imo. First of all it's 6 handed. There's a decent range of hands someone...

Some lessons are cheap.......

some not so cheap, and you pay with your pride. How I learned to keep my emotions in check at the table: 20 minutes before I sat at the 3/6 full kill HE table they hit the bad beat jackpot for $15K. Guy that took the beat got $9K and proceeded to get DRUNK. Raised and reraised every pot every street...

Re: Golden Opportunity

Hey BrooklynKid and all. I also played this game at the Borgata in AC this weekend and at Caesar so I may have been next to you. I noticed a couple of things with this game and decided to run some numbers in regards to the bonus 1st. I noticed the AA pays higher than AK suited, yet AK suited is harder...

When things go crazy

I got totally mad session last Sunday - it was $20/40 Holdem where I was ahead more than 1.5K and ended 1.4K down. This hand was a milestone after that I did not win any single hand for more than 4 hours of play. On a cutoff I call EP raise with after two more callers. BB three bet and 5 of us saw the...

Re: 3/6 limit K/Qs and...

I don't think there's a big flashing right answer on this one. I'd fold in general unless I have something else to go on. I don't think you can assume your hand is good right now, and I don't think you're guaranteed it's good if you hit. Let the BB have the crap flop and if...

Re: Playing Ax short handed

correct on your second point. Which is why it might be stupid to raise preflop... you have bad position. You are hoping the original raiser raises behind you either way, whether you raise or not. But also consider this... if you make it 3 bets preflop and the flops comes like Axx. And you bet, the...

Re: Jacks down in MP make it three to go or call two?

[quote="Kram"] How do you all play jacks in a limit game? Do you make it 3 to go with Jacks, and also make it 3 to go with AK? Throwing opponents off? Then, also when you have AA/KK players can put you on other hands rather then AA/KK. If it's been raised and you think three betting will...

Re: Need a pep talk.

I've been playing online since January and I can feel your pain. I usually play .50/$1 so it's a little different. I oscillated for quite a while then caught a really bad run of cards and went full tilt after getting AA cracked back to back. Being smart, I decided to move up to 1/2 (Because the...
