Am I wrong for wanting to call here, seeing if villain will lead out on the turn?
Thanks for the replies. I will omit results next time. Is there a way to spoiler them, or should I just wait until discussion has passed to post the result?
As for the hand:
I know I botched...
I find myself getting into bad situations playing big pocket pairs on a paired board.
Pre: After calling my 3-bet, I figure his range to be AA-JJ, AK-AJ.
Flop: Standard c-bet.
Turn: Check out...
I probably call here, despite the fact that players don't tend to shove bluff at $2nl. They will shove with an over pair enough that you can think your set is good. Do you use a HUD? If so, can we...
Keith:
I'm both calling and limping too much. In early position I'm 2-betting with too many marginal hands trying to shove the passive players out of the pot, then folding when I meet resistance....
Sorta....
While I have 10,100 hands played, I have played them at several different stakes with varying numbers of players.
Here's the overall graph in bb as I feel it is more indicative of how...
While I registered in 2005, I have play roughly 25k hands with money on the table in my life. Before this past month, the last time I played poker was in 2010, and I only played for about a month and...
No, I don't usually stack off with top pair. In this case I had my pointer over the fold button. I had a feeling I had the best hand at that moment, but I wasn't sure if it would hold up at showdown....
Tournaments are sparse on the site. You'll get action for the daily guaranteed R&As, but SnGs are close to non-existent. I feel I have better odds climbing the ladder in the cash games.
I'm about...
As a New Jersey resident, I play on a regulated site. The disadvantage of this is the lack of action. I'm currently playing $2NL and my roll is large enough to support some $4NL. There are usually 2...
I agree with spoon. It appears that villain is protecting his blind, and you should have 4 bet. You never tried to regain the initiative.
As you can tell from my registration date, I have known about online poker since the days of Moneymaker. I always liked poker, but didn't start playing for real money until the "Poker Boom". The...
^^ exactly. PTR bases their grades off of the top 10% of players at the stake you are playing, and on Full Tilt the micro regs tend to be nitty. That's why I was a bit offended (read: drunk) when I...
It makes sense, thank you.
I sorta figured it out when i pushed 99 against AA and hit a 9 to win and my all-in ev showed a sharp downturn but my green line went up.
Here's how I would play it according to your description of the player:
Flop: I would throw in a probe bet here (3-4 dollars) trying to induce him to come over the top. If he does I push and hope...
count me in
So I finished take 2 last night and cleared the $25 bonus. It didn't go as horribly as I thought. Going into it I figured if I lost less than $25 over the 9 days I would come out ahead. I did better...
after the raise is called on the flop I'm checking all the way. even if he has bottom pair he's still winning.
5k hands update:
Things have been going well at the poker table. I am now playing 2 tables trying to clear a take 2 bonus ($25 total if I clear all 9 days).
A few things I want to keep in check...
this seems totally legit

epic fail
i need this. thanks op
i am rooting for this as well. having been homeless i know how important it is to have a spot to call your own. i also know the sheer terror that is felt as you lose everything and find yourself...
that would explain my 4.5ptBB/100 over 4k hands, but I know I'm losing value somewhere.
I may have mis-worded my question allow me to clarify.
What skills are essential to master to beat the micro stakes?
