my first post live 2/5 I agree..but IF one of the others has a bigger stack I think the $300 looks less equal to shoving. As played anyone who call should shove..so ends up teh same nh Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Tough Spot deep in the 15k Guarantee on Merge ok, here's a totally different spin on this. You've said he's pretty solid..I agree with the 3bet preflop..but as played pf..id raise/push this flop. My thinking is this is a very nice pot already, and you are way ahead, currently..calling allows him to bet, but that can be a dangerous game with so many chips already in play. thoughts' Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Best way to play a table full of limpers. Give up on protecting your hand...everything is about value betting (and pot size control)..sometimes it can make sense to NOT raise a strong hand that doesnt play well multi-way (eg JJ)...everyone will call anyhow and then the pot is so big it is actually CORRECT for the fish to chase(based on pot odds). Hands that make flushes and straights like JTs etc gain big value. There's a great book on this by Gary Carson..based on playing in loose spreadlimit games in the south... Sadly, these loose games are harder and harder to find... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

20 from the bubble OESD and FD facing a tight opponent in unraised pot thoughts? I think you pretty konw where you are here..you have two very good draws in a multiplayer pot and are OOP.. I like the check call on the flop..no need to put all the chips in on the flop. If you hit the turn (esp the str8) you will get lots of chips from at least one player. If you miss the turn you can check and see what things look like when it comes back around (ps..having check call the flop makes a turn check non-thretening) You have like 40BB... so on teh turn check call vs check fold is a pot odds thing for me here. Id prefer winning a smallish pot to gambling this flop..you have too ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

was this poor play on a flush draw? 1. id limp that flop; end result was you made pot big so now your draw is expensive 2. call is ok, if you limp flop it costs less(since Ra prob bets less); calling pretty much commits you, so you could reraise allin, but if pot is smaller you most likely don't have to 3. pushing turn is ok since you are commited, and turn is nice card for you, but if pot is smaller you could call since you have 15 outs most likely..and don't mind multiple players for these draws hope this helps a little brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Good play or did I just get lucky? i'm no master at omaha, but the flop looks like a fold to me. imho too aggressive on turn with that hand, tho a smaller bet or check call works for me (you have about 15 outs, so about 3 to 1 on turn') brian ie yes you got lucky Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Shove, Flat advice here This is an understatement. He is being nice.. You should expect your game to be better than one that needs to hope for coinflips reraise a rational amount and concentrate on the flop play..you are in postion..you have the advantage. Brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Hand in a $125 live KO donkament? i agree with this...why such a large reraise' you mention you respect his play..but this large raise is a large cause for your situation. If you raise 700 you can bet half pot on flop..and if called you can check behind (am i confused' i think gien your nots on flop that you are in position right'); the board is so dry that i wouldnt be afraid of giving a free card on turn. often a monster hand will be afraid to bet you out of the pot and will make a really small bet esp on river..which you can call. so, smaller reraise, cont bet flop, chk behind turn if you can... thanks for the ...

How to play trip 9s with weak kicker in SNG? this isn't a great spot but this kinda thing happens a lot; you are outta position and your kicker is a huge concern..so to me the Q is can i make it to showdown, and if so how do I showdown cheaply. 1. villain rmin-reraises when second 9 hits..we'll unless he's a complete bluffng fool he has a hand. he may not have a 9, but might have AT etc..but if so he prob doesnt want a huge pot eirht, only a FH or 9 wants a big pot,, and prob only a 9 with a good kicker. So either you are way ahead, or crushed. 2. pushing is spewage given (1) above..only AT, etc folds,(ie hands you can ... Posted in: Poker Discussion |

4.40 bubble... i don't see the need to shove here. you have bottom two three handed..the ace is an action card to me here and there's a flush draw possible...to me the options are (1) smooth call (2) raise to get geoff out with a weak ace, etc that he could pair..and find out how much the SB likes his hand. given the situation i think i'd probably raise this and call a shove from the SB. thanks for the post brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

best line to extract the most money i like the call on the flop given the pot size, betting about half (hint-just a shade under half) will get you a call probably even from 2 overs; value bet river about 1/3 pot..a little more is an A or K comes good luck brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

how do u guys play a pair of 10's- JJ to a raise in single table sit n go's IMHO this is shove or fold..since you can't fold..one choice left. One variation is if you know the raiser, esp if he's passive but will call your push 100%, ...then you might consider a stop and go. The idea is that by cold pushing the flop you induce a fold where he woulda called pf for sure. To do this you need (1) to act first, (2) to believe that he's more likely to fold flop then pf, and (3) you need to have enuf chips to get a fold..i'd say you probably have just enough for this. either way, my chips are going in brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

Would any of you guys call here? 17k I guess there is a situation where i would call..if i have been raising a lot and table has been aggresive, or perhaps if stackman jsut got sucked out on..or he had shown a medium pocket pair or any ace previously after sucha move. Otherwise, I'm tempted to fold this and earn my chips in better spots as opposed to hoping for a cointoss this early. If he's been tight and this is outa the blue i'm definately folding. thanks for the post -Brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

tough spot against an overbet so this guy cold calls 1000 then pushes that flop' man he's probably overplaying his hand, but im not sure you can call here. I would probably take time to think about my tourny chances if i fold vs call and win. on balence, i think you have to beleive that he may have you crushed with a set, say TT 99, or has some form of pr/draw; i doulbt he's drawing dead. i fold this brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |

1010 against a reraise?? ok let me start by saying that i think folding is the safest play here...but none of the other posts have addressed an important considerations, the pot odds, and position if my math is right (doubful :)) pot is 1250 and its 500 to call. so you are getting around 2.5 to 1 to call, and you are in postion over him. So, that said, what do others think of flatting this, and leaving 2800 in our stack to see the flop and what villian does' brian Posted in: Poker Discussion |
