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

I guess it depends on your feel for the table. If UTG is fairly aggressive post-flop, and you're sure he's betting the turn even with the third heart out there, then you should set up the CR, especially since you are in perfect position to trap any bettors caught in between. I agree that a set...

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

disagree with bhiatt... He says its likely everyone else will check behind you in fear of the flush... its better to bet out and people with two pair or a set will call because they have outs. This is kind of contradictory. If someone has two pair or a set, they are not going to check because a 3rd suit...

Re: 15/30$ LIMIT, 10$ SB forced to call?

I would also never play these hands here: 25, 26, 36, 37, 47, 48, 58, 59, 69, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6, T7, J2, J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8 and likely also others. I don't like the fact of playing any suited hand too. Suited hands only have a 3% advantage over unsuited hands... to me...

Medium PP in LP

I wanted to bring up the topic of playing medium pocket pairs in late position. By medium I am referring to 88, 99, TT, maybe 77 or JJ. From what I see of a lot online is this: A player raises from some position in front of the player with the pair. The player with the pair will 3 bet his medium (or...

Re: Low limit Hold Em, raising AK, AQ, AJ from BB

Yes on all of them, yes yes and yes. The more limpers the better if they are suited because big suited cards play well multihanded. With high cards you also want to get your money in before the flop because a] you probably have the best hand b] high cards make the most money on preflop and on the flop...

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

In a 6 handed game, it all depends! People bluff hibitually in these games, with absolutely nothing. So it depends on the player betting, the player behind you, etc... I think you should also consider raising... but only if you could get a free card on the turn from him if you dont hit. It is very likely...

Re: May anybody play it different ?

I would have bet out also Jon...if there were not two of a suit out there. I'll hammer top two pair against a coordinated board...but a coordinated AND suited board (not to mention 3 opponents)...I don't have the moxie. I hate checkraising a flop like this because, basically I am hoping that...

Re: small pairs for implied odds

If it's against a player who I'm sure has a big pair then I'll muck. I won't let the underflop tempt me. If I'm against two players that are likley to raise and 3-bet on big cards then I'll bet out / raise and try to figure out where I'm at. Generally I'll be happy to...

Re: EP raise and you hold....

Online in the 6 handed games, people will raise with anything, and I mean anything. From my experience, Ax is good against a large number of people playing at the 6 handed tables when they raise, as long as you are paying attention to your opponents. People are consistently in there raising with 79,...

Re: Playing in loose games

Well, as I understand it... Like you said, a raise preflop may give them correct odds to call on the flop. Your goal is for players to make mistakes (call with hands that have a smaller chance of winning than the pot odds). If you think just in terms of that, then their statement may be abstract, but...
