I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.

i'd shove over cuz his line smelt like AJs+ spade draw. If he had TT or KK, it'd be a cooler though.

I call, he could have Axss and just be retarded. I doubt an 8 shows up but it could. Sets can't happen unless he played his TT really funky. JQ is the only hand we're worried about imo and if he's raising JQo he's probably raising like AQ and AJ and doing shit retarded shit with those too. So I think I call and make a note if he's retarded or not.

TT and KK are distinct possibilites. It really comes down to my reads. If I have none, i just call and im not happy about it.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

There is no point of shoving IMO if we have him on the spade draw, just call it.

I can't believe that he flopped a set or has AA with this action. I'd lean toward him having jack-shit on the turn; I can't see any reason for him to miss a pot-building turn bet with the 8d hitting if he's holding AA/KK/TT/88 or even A8. I can see AsKs slowing down, though.

I gotta call. There are too many hands that we beat here, plus we've been way too passive for him to suspect we have AK. If he's raising A8 or QJs UTG, then we need to know that to take back our money plus interest later, right?

I'm guessing we split with AsKs if he's a reasonable player and we win if he's not.

you just made a really good case for shoving...

I just call however, his psb makes me feel uneasy. He could just think AQ is the nuts but I'm not so sure...
