Re: Some fun hands!

Bob, Nice freaking hand that second hand. Wow! I can't believe that he kept betting. Anyway. Tempering this statement by saying that I normally don't play limit poker, I think you should reevaluate how you played that first hand. I think the raise pre-flop was questionable. Once you had raised...

Nuts!

What are the odds? $.50/$1. Limit hold'em on UB In SB, I get Four players call pre-flop, I call, BB checks. Flop is . SB (me) bets, BB calls, MP raises, it is called around. No one folds. Turn is .

Ummm......your head just exploded

On rare, wonderful days, everything clicks. You catch everything you need and other players love to get involved in pots where you have the nuts. Perfect bluffs make everyone fold. A semi-bluff flush draw gets a couple callers and you make the hand. I had a night like this Monday night in a 10-20 game...

Re: Did I Play Smart Or Scared

Due to his pre-flop raise from the BB, you could have put him on Aces. So a re-raise here wouldn't be so bad... but it IS the river and you don't want to pay 3 bets JUST IN CASE he raised from the blind with QQ, JJ or AK of diamonds. The play was fine, don't get greedy.

Won the pot because misscounted the outs.

This is a pot I played yesterday on PP $10/20 shorthanded. Pot is pretty trivial but something standing behind of it seems to me significant so I will post it here. I'm UTG + 1 with . UTG limps in, so do I, button limps in too, SB completes BB checks. Flop . UTG bets, I need a 5, also have back door...

Re: Early position 6 handed and you hold a high wired pair QQ+... do you ever attempt a slow play?

Quote from Kram: "Why refrain NiHeraNeSsu? This is a poker discussion board my friend;) Come on in and dump your thoughts......." Well, actually whatever reasons I may list are well known. But risking to be boring and based on your response I will dare to put them together. So why big pocket...

Re: small pairs for implied odds

"hold 7-7 and there is a raise and a re-raise" ;) Andrew I think you know the answer to this one bro! Shouldn't even be a thought IMO- straight into the muck pile. What could these two players possibly have? Unless, of course, it's been 3 bet on numerous occasions with people protecting...
