youre good. the best he could possibly have here is AKclubs. you are definitely not behind, and should be pushing it all in.

Those numbers sound high, but most set-over-set pots are pretty spectacular so they stick in the memory longer.

Now tell me how often the following situation happens: two people make quads and...

i see a lot of short stack experts who are waiting for that one spot to double up....so they can leave and rebuy with a half stack. they arent necessarily bad tacticians, just poor strategists.
...

yes. a weak villian will have 65 or 64 too often here to make folding correct. any made hand chk-raises the turn. hes probably making this play because those runners would be scary to most hands...

great first post.

careful because you will be forced to make the smaller raise when you DO have jacks or better, lest you give away your PF holdings by having an established table of raising amounts.

of course. just like everyone will have varying levels of IQ, each poker player will have a varying maximum potential. and just like in life not everyone will take advantage of that potential. ...

this may not change your point, but he had me covered. he raised another 3hundred on top of me, so i folded saving ~240$. but i was pretty sure i was on two outs.

its just one example of how...

i need to play better in this spot too, heres a hand similar hand (OOP with large PP in multiway pot) where i cant decide if 1 my PF is correct 2 my flop chk raise is correct (i see these two hands...

youll often see this play by someone relieved to have his medium pocket pair survive the flop, ie TT or JJ. looks like hes still on two outs to me. and if youre really beat, you can always say that...

lol

maybe he thot you were bluffing

maybe he thot he was pot committed. in some ppls minds, it IS possible to be pot committed even if you are drawing dead. and i thank god for those people.

bingo. leave the turn alone. represent stealing the pot on the river after he has checked three consecutive steets...

doyle doesnt even play AQ

have to admit, the 10% option would answer a lot of questions. for his sake, i hope its the shark choice.

lol.

*shakes head/ half-rolls eyes*

1. heads up
2. i have posn
3. there are no real draws out there (QT...)
4. i believe that i am ahead, but have no idea if he has hit anything. giving him 4:1 odds will encourage a lot of...

i see this opinion aired frequently. what stakes do you feel this to be true for? i find no significant difference in my winrates (400nl) between PP, PRoom or PStars. Stars has grown so much in...

we hav the same point. im not trying to be pretentious by saying that at all. i mean that what seems insurmountable now will happen naturally in time if you dont force it. my goal someday is to be...

the chances might be better than they appear because these calculations are assuming that he is playing ONLY two tables. if hes playing 8, say, then this is hardly remakable. in fact, im suprised...

im not disagreeing with you (yet). but in that 1/8 scenario where the In Position opp has setted, this can be a recipe for disaster. he probably just calls your flop pot bet and you have no...

um, i lost a thousand dollars YESTERday. lol. stick with it, youll learn the game and progress without even noticing. the trick is to play stakes you can afford. if that means playing one-two...

i dont mind playing unimproved aces passively OOP. a lot of times you can only make as much as your opponent is willing to give you. if you push too hard he only calls if you are beat. consider...

preflop yeah. the flop all in is just silly. the fact that he got a caller was lucky. hes forcing hero to hold AA/QQ or make a terrible chase with flush draw (on a paired board to boot).
