    Default I have a pair of eights. ARRRR-INNNN!!!

    Villain seems like an average TAG but he's only been at the table a couple of orbits so I don't have any meaningful stats yet.

    I'm trying to be like gabe.

    Step 1: I have a pair and I think it's good, I call.
    Step 2: Oops, I guess it's no good after all. I'm all-in.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($54.40)
    UTG ($53.45)
    Hero ($50.50)
    SB ($47.10)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 8, 8.
    UTG raises to $2, Hero calls $2, 2 folds.

    Flop: ($4.75) 3, 4, T (2 players)
    UTG bets $4.5, Hero calls $4.50.

    Turn: ($13.75) A (2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero checks.

    River: ($13.75) 3 (2 players)
    UTG bets $9.5, Hero raises to $30

    I like it. But your title is misleading.

    Your place or my place
    in my limited experience, you have to push if you want him to fold and thats not a push
    <Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

    Yea I know I just thought the title would be funny. Do you think all-in is better than $30?

    it depends on what I think of my opponent. If you just think he's nit not thinking push. If he's nit thinking I like your raise.
