Re: Medium PP in LP

So much depends on the limit and if you have any info on the player raising. If I'm grinding low limit, playing 4 tables of 2-4 or 3-6, and against one raiser that I don't know to be particularly fishy or surprisingly decent, I will usually put in a 3rd bet with JJ and TT; 99 88 and 77 I'll...

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...

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...

Kids, don't try this at home.

2 hands that show the excellent abilities of yours truly. I humbly submit the following: 10-20 live I'm dealt and make a friendly wage UTG+2, 1 caller, folds and BB calls. Flop I lead out, fold and 1 call. Heads up on the turn. I bet, get raised and reraise. Flat call. Ok, he's got A, Q. River...

Fun at 2-4 table.

Yeah, I am playing 2-4. I am one broke chick with moving and all. Anyway, I am playing at my old casino, having a ball sitting next to one of my very favorite players.

Re: Lesson Learned

Couple of years ago I played $20/40 in Taj. There was a guy on the table - I will call him SOB all below. That's three pots he played. 1. SOB raised from MP. All table folded except old man on BB who called. Does not matter what the flop was, SOB bet it, keep betting on the turn and on the river...

Re: Winning percentages vs card odds

If you want to be a good poker player, you have to learn how to calculate different types of odds, most notably pot odds, in your head, not with the help of software. Pot odds, your chances of having the best hand on the end in relation to the size of the pot, should often determine whether or not you...

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: Folding small pairs in the long run...

maybe this is to fast, but i like to limp early and raise middle to late position. of course this all changes with the type of game your playing. if the action is slow with only 2 or 3 people seeing a flop then i like to raise from any position and get the action down to 2 players or even heads up. after...
