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: Getting killed on Paradise Poker ...

I would chalk it up to the stakes. At those levels it's nothing more than a total crap shoot. I know so many people that play those limits almost litterally with their eyes closed simply because they are playing a higher limit at the same time and want something to kill the time while waiting for...

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...

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

I play 15/30 on party a lot where there is also 10 and 15 blinds. I still fold my small blind pretty often, especially if there are a bunch of players in. If there is only 1 limper or 2 maybe, and I have somewhat mediocre cards then I may limp... otherwise I fold. I have seen this to be a long-term loser...

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

I would most likely just call instead of raise. By raising you aren't going to get a free card on the turn if it doesn't hit as easily because there are so many players. But more so, by just calling, if it does hit, you are hoping the same player bets because then you can get callers in between...

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

Yes, I would call it. Many players overbet their hands and second high 2 pairs on non highly coordinated board imho deserve to be played. Three recent pots as illustration: $5/$10 Hold'em - Friday, July 08, 20:15:09 EDT 2005 Table Table 11367 (6 max) (Real Money) Seat 2 is the button Total number...

Re: Medium PP in LP

I always three bet TT and better against one player (original raiser). If his raise was already called or if there are more limpers before him I would three bet only QQ or better, rare JJ. As for smaller pairs against the single raiser I play both ways - I may three bet with any pocket pair, even with...

Flush Chasers - Funny Hand

Rather interesting hand, something I don't think I have ever seen before. This is in a 15/30 ring game. I was dealt UTG and raise to $30. The guy behind me calls, someone behind him calls, the button calls, both blinds call. 6 players seeing the flop. The flop is Checked to me, I bet, called by all...

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: Getting killed on Paradise Poker ...

LMAO! Wow Kram! Does PokerPlaya have you pegged or what? In regards to not being able to beat the low limit tables at Paradise I suggest you try a different site and see if your success/failure is any different. Paradise is a more mature site and the games might be just a tad tougher. The players might...
