 Hand 1: limp preflop. as played, push on raise.

Hand 2: pushing or leading strong or calling here is fine.

Hand 3: check raise big or lead flop for at least 3/4 pot.

Hand 4: fold. It's another $14 in a $50 pot. so if u hit your diamond you have to get another $34 from him to make this play profitable. in position - call, out of position - fold.


Girlfriend: Why are the werewolves more important than living life?!

Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?

Because you have the best hand here via the draw. Vs. AA I think you are a 52% favorite.

Half as above. But you still have fold equity against anything less than KQ.

Hand 1: He has 15 left of his original 20, and 7 to call the flop reraise, leaving him with 8 in what will be a 26 pot, comitting him on the turn anyway. He has a 15 outs, and it's gonna take runners to counterfeit them. Push is fine, but I play my combo draws very aggressively.

Hand 2: 13 clean outs, $39 pot with $15 to call. The turn check sucks IMO as villain's hand isn't defined very well -- set, AK, very aggressive club draw (I fire 2nd barrels on draws in position a fair amount), but if this is a thinking player a c/r push could scare him off. Even so, with stacks this deep and 13 clean outs, I'm looking for a call here and value betting a non club river.

how often does a single pair hand play this way?

seems a bit overkill to push there

Pushing in hand 2 is terrible since there's so much money behind. I raise to 45 and call a push, hope for a fold. If its a call I check/fold a missed river since he wont fold a push after that.
My sig is too much for you to handle.

why are we raising hand 2? what made hand just calls on the flop? your fold equity is pretty low, i'd say 0 unless you push. the only reason i can see for raising the turn is if you plan on pushing a brick

Because we have an enormous drawing hand with some FE against TP/marginal hands. If villain decides to push, we're getting enormous pot odds for our draw, as well.

if villain decides to push, you are getting artificial odds. why do you have fold equity here? his hand looks relatively strong, and our weak preflop, flop, and turn line give us pretty much no FE vs a thinking player. sure we have an enormous drawing hand, but theres only one card left...i dont see why we cant just call. there is absolutely no strong hand that check-calls that flop multiway, and then checks the turn again risking a check-behind to c/r. i think we gave up playing this aggressively when we played the flop weak, which we should have. i like calling the turn because if a diamond hits he wont expect it because we are put on clubs or QJ, so i see no reason to raise because our draw is already half-way disguised

agreed. also, pairs+fd's & turned 15-outters aren't licenses to print money

 1. Looks good if you pushed.

2. I don't like raising the turn in this hand, just call the turn and hope you hit. You will get paid if you do, so the implied odds are there.

3. You absolutely must fold preflop here. Pay attention to stack sizes when you call raises with weak hands. You are also out of position, so I don't think you can even call this against a full stack.

4. Call and see the river.

Here, my opponent is only going to call with at least a pair of kings. You can see how a :Ks: works better for me than a :Ts: might. Out of position I would be pushing here as well.

Good point, its hard to put someone on a backdoor flush, they get paid off a lot. And your OESD is a bit sneaky as well. You hit on riv, you win.

Thank you very much The converter works ok, only you have to change the card symbols in the end. I'll use it from now on.
