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: Nuts flush draw. Check, call or raise ?

In the second situation, if the flush card hits the turn and you check with the hopes of a CR, it's likely everyone else will check behind you in fear of the flush, costing you one or more bets. You might as well bet the turn. Someone (or more than one) will call, particularly those with outs against...

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 fun hands!

Well the internet connection is back at my lunch time break spot so I've been playing a little over my breaks again. Downside is some personal circumstances resulted in me withdrawing about as much of my BR as I could. It left me with about $19 and some change on one site. Well I played a $5/$1 yesterday...

Re: Set on 4-flush board.

Fold. Originally I would say call but the :ac: is just going to raise behind you. He (she) probably has :ac: :kd: and flopped the classic top pair nut flush draw. UTG +1 obviously has :jh: :js: so the board pairing could actually give someone else quads and kill our hero. Even if hero rivered the case...

Re: Hand simulation: 88 in MP....

[quote="Otter"]I think implied odds here would be good enough to call as long as you were receiving 5 to 1 odds (this is a Slkansky quote). The reason is because althought you are 7.5 to 1 to flop this set, you are a big favorite and will get paid off handsomely when you do. I would also think...

Re: Loose Low Limit Game

Mully, I try to do the following things in a loose game. 1. Relax my starting requirements, try to see flops for cheap. I won't raise w/ small pairs if there are 6-7 players already in the hand. I'm not saying play every Ace or every hand in these games. Drawing hands will play better in these...
