Have taken the last couple of months off and am getting back into things again. Just can't seem to get much going as of late. Have I forgotten how to play in 2 months? :)
...

44 - not very good in a multiway hand.
Ac9c - dominated by the AK so wouldn't want this one.
QdJd - higher suited connectors, but still not as good as AK.
7s8s - suited connectors, but another...

The thing is, you can't call the raise to 1200 then fold at any point thereafter - you're pot committed with like 2600 in the pot and 1800 behind and a hand that may well still be the best hand...

First off, you could at least get my name right.

You seem to try and guess why someone is posting (ie. villian hit their flush or straight). It's not about the outcome for me, but about making...

Villian was 33/8 over 76 hands. Put him on a flush or straight draw here (as he obviously doesn't want a call), but would be risking all my chips with a call here.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em,...

Villian was 38/19 over 69 hands...when the table got down to 4 handed he was 88/88 over 8 hands.

I find myself in this situation a lot lately. There is a player with <10 BB at the table and I have...

Villian was 36/18 over 11 hands. He won a big hand early on with AK to double up. I flopped a straight in the BB and doubled up.

After the raise on the flop, I am thinking he probably has a set...

I know I probably shouldn't do this, but I asked him why he would get all his chips in there with AK against a stack that would basically cripple him if he loses. His reply was "all or...

I bet the pot on the flop because there were 2 opponents in the hand. It doesn't matter what the opponent made (pair of Qs, flush, 2 pair, set, etc). I am basically pot committed on the turn, so I...

Villian was 44/12 over 34 hands. I didn't think villian would want to get involved in a big hand here with the 2 short stacks at the table. I am thinking I should just call his donk raise and see...

Probably my worst slide ever. Anything I am missing in these? I can only attribute this slide to bad luck for so long before I think there is something that I am doing (or not doing) that is...

Villian's stats were 49/18 over 33 hands. After the call on the flop, I put him on a hand like KQ, or QJ. If he had AQ, he probably would have reraised preflop. Do you just shove the turn or give...

I think I am just checking behind here. The pot is $960 so is a decent size and I am happy to take that here.

I am not sure why the converter is saying I was in the BB. I was actually UTG.

When the blinds get to this level, I am no longer set mining, however in these 2 instances I think it is OK...agree?

Now what if our stack was something like 1000? Only 50 to call which is less...

Villian was 48/19 over 21 hands. With the small reraise preflop and the tiny bet on the flop I just felt I was up against a big hand, but I still couldn't get away from my hand. Should I have bet...

Have been on a downswing as of late and just can't seem to turn it around. It actually started right after I upgraded to Pokertracker3 from version 2. I don't think that has anything to do with it...

That's the jist of it. Sometimes you go on long streaks where the cards just aren't there or your AK just doesn't seem to hit a flop. Once the blinds are worth stealing, then you have to look for...

At least they are taking measures to stop it, better than not doing anything.

Was playing my usual 5 tables last night on Pokerstars and noticed something different. Something came up in the chat screen where I had to enter a word and had 100 seconds to do so. It came up on...

H1 - Q:heart: J:heart: - I usually fold these, but with a couple limpers in there and in later position I think this is OK.
H2 - K:diamond: Q:spade: - I am folding here for sure. As played, bet on...

I figured I still had time here to try and let him hang himself, but I never seem to do well against these types of opponents when it gets to heads up.

Comments and criticisms welcome :) I know I...

Any reads on villian? With the 2 shortstacks at the table, I am leaning towards a fold on this one.

Just an update. I bought Pokertracker 3 last night. I was running the trial version for a few days and liked the layout a lot better than v2. Everything seemed to load up much quicker as well and...

Your tourney got cutoff there, but just from skimming through it I think you are playing way too many hands and taking a lot of unnecessary risks...ie raising chip leader on flop in Hand 21 with just...
