Deuce,

That situation is closer because you have so many to act after you. It's all interesting. This kinda discussion is why I come back. I see they convinced you and truly I can see why, but I...

Hey, if I was right all the time I wouldn't still be playing 10 and 20 SNG.

Because it is a SNG there is more than math guiding our actions. Or there should be imho. I'm happy to play that hand...

The JJ thread is interesting. But not an exact analogy. That play was a raise to isolate against an open push. Hero faced one opponent. In mine I'm assuming 3 and possible more villians. I'd like to...

This is gospel.

A bet means a hand. Can you beat a hand? If you can't don't call. They aren't bluffing anywhere near as often as you think. Which means.......you should bluff more. But that's...

I don't like the Cbet shove idea. For many reasons, but the chief reason is that you are all in with nothing. Not a good strategy imho.

Even at $5 the texture is not consistent. You have wild...

against one guy, Sure, folding AA PF is overwhelmingly a bad move. But not in the situation I laid out. I believe I said I faced a standard bet, an AI raise and a call of the AI raise. I'm facing at...

he might be in his comfort zone. Maybe he has a good day job and he's just a good player playing for entertainment and spare change? You never know.

I've seen sites that track players records in MTT. I've been unable to find one that does STT. Does anyone know of one? If there isn't one, does anyone know why?

Good luck with your plan. The numbers look ok (barely). But I'd be careful about assuming home game success means you can beat the micros. You also said you'd played a "decent" amount online. Play...

You played it right. Set over set sux but you'll get over it. He coulda had AQ after all. At least it looks like you had him covered.

against multi opps i avoid an early all in like the plague. I've actually folded AA in late position early in a STT when facing a bet, an AI raise and a call infront of me. I know i can outplay them...

I've experienced the same "lifting of the fog" before. For me it happened at the same level, 5.50 on UB. Unlike you though, I haven't noticed an appreciable difference between the 5.50 and 10+1 or...

Is the UTG raise that out of line? He RAISES 6x bb. That's high standard at most. The call is 7 times bb. I don't think its that strange.

With no info I call. If a player behind me raises I fold no matter what UTG does.

At this stage this is a crapshoot. I'm a risk taker. Some might fold AK0 to a bet like this from UTG. I don't...

I play exclusively STT on UB. $20+2

I expect to get creamed for this. Fire away. I'm looking for input.

I must qualify this by saying that I realize that most members here are numbers people. I...

It's a wash whether you bet the turn or flop, chip wise. But a turn bet carries more power, more bang for the buck, if you ask me. It says "I have a hand" which you do but it's not great. You need...

Scratch what I said about you being a beginner. I had you confused with another. But I still feel the same about the play. One round too late

To evaluate your play I need to think thru it with questions:

Why did you check the flop? If you make your 125 bet there you may take the pot.

Why were you playing those cards? The way I see...

Depends on how you're losing. Are you getting getting AI good and getting sucked out? Are you getting nothing to work with card wise? Or are you getting outplayed? By that last I mean this; Do you...

Dozer,

This isn't you is it?

beat him as fast as you can.

Yeah, that was pretty bad. Actually, right up to the cbet on the flop it was a pretty standard line but after his minraise it was not good. I fold right there. I also mighta bet a little more PF....

I play the $5.50 level currently on UB but I have played the 2 in the recent past. When I started making the $$ almost every time I moved up. The good news is that the 5.50 is no harder than the...

Can you elaborate on this a little more? What makes it so loose wild? Is it the whole concept of push/fold poker? Or the fact that I am playing donks who are actually that loose/wild?

Also, what...

Everytime I play live, whether home or in a Casino, I have 2 shots o' scotch about 10 minutes before sitting down. No more, no less. I feel that it obscures any tells I may have and calms me down....
