Re: Live game and online poker.. Which one is better?

I'm mostly a SNG fellow, but when I sit at a cash game, I like to sit down at a short game where most (if not all) of the people have less than the buy-in, sometimes MUCH less, and buy in with slightl MORE than the buy-in (but an odd amount). Then, I like to bully the hell out of them with a loose...

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...

I hate dropping the best hand....

5-10 on Pacific. I limp into a 5- or 6-handed flop with from the SB. Flop comes . I bet, 2 callers. Turn comes . I bet, raise, raise.... These games on Pacific are usually loose, but it's not common to see a 3-bet without a real hand. I didn't really suspect him for K-Q (smooth calling the flop...

Re: Medium PP in LP

[quote="Calm Dragon"] 88 and lower are tough to hold. I may be in for a bet or two, to see if they will set up by the turn. I stayed in with a 44 last Sunday only because the board was no more than two of any suit, and none consecutive in rank. Turn was checked 'round. River gave me a set...

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...
