Quick followup. I checked my database for cbet flop and turn and donked into w a large bet on the river. It's not a large sample, surprisingly. 19 times I folded. 29 times I called. I lost money...

Yikes. You can tell it is a tough hand as no one has answered yet.

It's hard for me because the only equivalent I have is someone I've never seen before just sat down and this is their first...

Let me just agree with everyone that this is a pretty easy turn b/f. He has all kinds of combos that beat you and make sense on every street: JJ, 33, 66, AQcc, QJs. I can really only come up with...

I agree with you 100%! I might I say that I feel kind of flattered that OngBonga responded to my post. I've read so many of yours and almost always come away with something insightful.

The...

This is why I love database analysis...

Decided to filter for hands similar to this post. I checked the following: Called any river bet w flush and paired board. Called shove w flush and paired...

Thanks griffey. I appreciate that.

I've been reading these forums for most of a year and have found it to significantly improve my game. Every now and then, I'll find a post about a hand that...

I think we are pretty much in agreement. Very few situations arise where I will raise the flop on a utg opener. And, you are right that much of his calling range is also his barreling range. I...

There is a lot more to a hand than the number of possible combos that beat us.

First of all, I'm not sure I'm putting 65s, 86s, J9s, etc in an utg's opening range w/o some reads.

Far more...

This post is like giving relationship advice...it's always easier to see the correct answer when it is someone else. Sure, reading the post, I immediately think that you are up against a better hand...

MadMojoMonkey is exactly right. There is not going to be a "correct" answer to that question. Just a few thoughts that come to my mind include:
What do you know about your opponent? What is his...

The consensus seems to be that given that we called preflop, we should C/C the flop. But, then what is the plan?

What do we do on the turn if a brick hits? Obviously, it would help to know if...

Easy game when the flush/straight card also gives us a full house. I'm curious how people, esp the OP, would have played...say 5c on the river.
Bet/fold? Bet/call? If so, how much of a bet and...

BigSlick, if you're opponents are exploitable by calling large cbets with weak hands, the only wrong thing you can do is not exploit them.

There are so many players that desperately want to see...

A few days late on reading this, but I don't think there is any question at all here. I just think OngBonga is 100% correct. His range is so overwhelmingly sets and strong/combo draws that you gain...

I just want to talk about the OP's isolation raise and what he should consider before raising. At 2nl, you will constantly be facing limpers in front you. Knowing when and why to iso raise will...

I've been reading quite a few posts lately and I'm usually not sure that I can add anything. But, I am THE expert on one aspect of this post. I am the king of destroying my bankroll by moving up...

I'd like to ask OP, do you have a HUD? If you answered it somewhere, I missed it. I've just started reading FTR again and the last...

Whew. I've been going over a bunch of my hands, calculating the EV for various plays. I was thinking I might have to go redo them all!



I'm glad you included that in your earlier post. I...

Thanks so much for the response. I don't think I explained my question very well. When I refer to the difference between bet and raise, I am referring to the fact that a raise includes the amount...

Hi. This is my first post and I am flashing back to reading an essay in front of class in the eighth grade. Please be more gentle than they were. :)

I have a question about the difference...
