If the player just places 200 into the pot without saying anything when the bet is 600, the player must complete the bet to 600 or forfeit the 200 and fold. Those are the only options. He cannot...

Let's say that at a home tournament the blinds are 100/200. Player A raised to 600. Player B does not realize that there has been a raise and says "Call 200" while placing 200 into the pot.
I...
I'm no Omaha expert, so take this with that in mind.
To me, I think the guy is holding 5-6 and maybe 5h-6h for the nut straight and a SF draw.
If I am not mistaken, 5-6 is the only hand you are...
This seems to be happening to me way too often lately. I hit my sets but still don't get paid.
I probably shouldn't have slow-played, but I was also looking to try to win a decent sized pot. I...
Thanks for the help, guys.
I thought that the two players would split the money. It happened in a home game I had over the weekend, and one of the players thought he should get more money...
Ok, so I know that if two players go out on the same hand in a tournament, that the player who had the most chips to start the hand would finish in the higher position.
What if two players go out...
They look to be the same as online poker room cards.

I have four decks of COPAGs, and I agree that they are excellent cards.
I just wondered if the four color deck was useful. And what about the Epoc ones, the ones that are basically all black?? ...
I saw on the COPAG website that they now make a deck of cards with the suits in four different colors. Have any of you played with these cards?
I know that it is much easier to play online (at...
I'm thinking about running four tourneys in one day, one each for hold em. omaha, stud, and razz. Basically all 10 man SNGs, and getting points based on your finish in each tourney, and whoever has...
I hope that this is in the correct room....
Anyway, I am thinking about running a HORSE event at my next home game. Most of the players will not be very familiar with any of the games besides...
Is there a way to see instant hand histories on Paradise Poker like you can on Empire, Party Poker, and Poker Stars? I have looked but can't seem to find it....
I am definitely a beginner, but I don't understand how you could for sure put villain on AA in this hand. You raised preflop, he min-raised you back. He could have pretty much anything, imo. The...
What site should a 5NL or 10NL player be on? I was on Party, but got kicked to the 25NL and I was not ready for that skill-wise or bankroll-wise. I am now on Stars, and am enjoying it. But from...
I think 19 hands is an EXCELLENT way for beginners to learn to play. It makes you only play good cards, so that when you do hit something on the flop you have a good chance of winning the pot. ...
I have notcied this a lot at the 10NL on Poker Stars as well. Lots of people buying in for $4.
To me, that hand history looks ok. I like the raise on villains post flop bet, and it wass a good, strong raise. And I would have also fold to the turn bet since there were two overs.
Cool, I am glad to hear that I should be able to make money playing poker, even if it is a small amount. I expect to make money, so it is good to hear that I have not set an unrealistic goal.
How good of a poker player should I expect to be if I only play for a couple of hours a week maximum online (mostly at $5 or $10 NL) and the occassional home tournament?
I read this forum as much...
Calling the BB with 10-J offsuit is shaky at best, and callying a raise with it is suicide. I'd consider myself lucky to have won anything.
I think you only have 21 outs, because you are double counting the Queen and Ten of spades.
9 spades, 3 Aces, 3 Kings, 3 Queens, 3 Tens = 21 outs
Am I right or wrong?
EDIT: I realized I...
Me too.[/quote]
I guess about everyone could say that. I just read posts on here from guys that haven't played nearly as much as I have and are much better. I need to take poker more seriously...
I know I didn't give you much to go on, but I do appreciate the help.
I don't call raises from the BB because it is cheaper. I will only call or reraise if I have good cards because I know I will...
These are my statistics from Poker Stars from the .05/.10 NL tables. I know that these are not nearly as good as something I would get from Poker Tracker, but this is all I have at the moment.
It...
Ok, I have already posted one hand history tonight, and you guys made me realize that I have been playing way too loose. I had been doing pretty well at $25 NL on Empire, though, with the way I was...
