Middle set multi-way facing a world of action on super-wet board - preferred option?
This hand was bugging me. I'm sure I'd have played differently with a time bank / less tables running when it came up. FWIW I timed out on turn and decision made for me, although was still torn. Almost timed out on flop and only just called in time as couldn't decide between call/shove. BB new to the table but evidently…

Limp calls
I play low level 2/4p tables and see a lot of limp calls so if we have premium hands what would you make the standars raise? I vary depending on table but i normally do 20p-28p but sometimes youll get 2 or 3 limp callers which reduces odds on premium hands.So is it better to raise like 8-10 times which seems very high to…

Live £1/£2 hand KK
Raised to £8 under the gun with KK, player in mid position calls and so does Button. Flop comes 6 8 9 (rainbow), I lead out for £25 then player in mp jams for circa £250, Button tanks for a while and then also jams for circa £260. Now I'm not loving life, thinking at least 1 of them must have me beat, been playing with…

NL20 AJs multiway facing a turn jam with top 2
Been a while since posting a hand on Sky so here's my bit to add to the cash game section (ps why don't we just go back to 1 forum section for all hands and strategy?) Was lucky to find myself at a pretty good table. The first caller was a serial limper and must have been playing something like 85-5 and didn't seem to have…

Cash spot with Queens
A scenario to discuss... Blinds = 25p/50p Your stack (under the gun) = £40 Opponent 1 stack (button) = £60 Opponent 2 stack (big blind) = £20 - You raise to £1.50 with QQ - Opponent 1 re-raises on the button to £6 - Then opponent 2 shoves his full stack Both are fairly good players but have shown some agressive play in…

Button Opening Size VS Other Positions
Hi, right so the majority of the time i have been opening the button for a min open depending on the size of the stack in the B. if they have 200 BB's then i tend to 3x regardless of hand strenth. from the cut off and every other position i 3x open. for the SB vs BB i tend to 4x and again if the have less then 100 BB's i…

TT 'squeeze' facing 3b from blinds
As it was I torn between call and 4b, then got sidetracked by phone starting to ring and ended up timing out (doh!), obviously the worst of all options. But preference here? BB is a solid multi-tabling reg presumably playing as low as NL10 just to keep the table count up. I've been raising these two limpers with all sorts…

Winning
Was just wondering what do people tend to look at for a session and maybe keep a record of? How many hands they saw in an hour and how much they've won? How many bb they win per 100 hands? Or do some just record how much they are up or down for the day and play a set time for the day? Was just wondering as would like to…

Donks
Higher stakes you play are you less likely to find donks? I don't mind loosing a hand but lower stakes its like bingo. Raised pre flop with ak suited a bloke reraised me, can't remember how it went but I hit 2pair and he wins full house with a 7,5. Plays a 7,5 off suit ffs and with a raise pre flop and on the flop as I hit…

did i play this wrong or just unlucky?
Ive just started playing a few weeks ago and am still learing. did i play the poket aces too strong given ther was 3 cards to a straight on the flop i know they didnt make their straight untill the river but for future play am i better off playing slower on a board like that or was it the right play and just unlucky?

Playing post-flop in 4-bet pots
4- handed. BB 3-bets. BB is one of the better regs at these levels I think and I know is mixing it up with their 3 bets, would imagine has adjusted better to being 4-handed than I have and adjusted 3b ranges accordingly. I actually had position on him on a couple of tables at the time and in the short term I was 3 betting…

Facing a pot-min-pot donk with 2nd pair
Apart from an old note about oppo 3b shoving AK for 100bb and a number of open limps in the first few orbits, no other notes to add. As played, would you be calling river here? Should I even be happy calling flop in this spot? I see no case for raising at any point, although happy to listen to any argument made for me…

Flopped set facing donk and raise on the river
Initial raiser has a habit of getting bluff happy and over-valuing weaker made hands. That was why no raise on the flop so that he could carry on betting. Turn raise given the increasingly drawy nature of the board. Arguably should have been larger, but didn't want to price out semi-bluffs or 1pair hands. Probably the…

tables consisting of LAG and limpers
Whilst the tables remain consistant of limpers one thing which has changed is the amount of Limp raising and post flop donking. The difficulty in these spots is that players have got a very wide range, raggy off suit hand can be as low as 84o making the donk betting feel like a guessing game. pre flop 3betting can be just…

Bluffing line check @ NL50
Figured the donk lead to include sets, Qx or flush draws. Possibly some tentative 2nd pairs that didn't squeeze (JJ-88). Not much experience at NL50 though so perhaps BB defence range is much wider than lower levels. The prospect of better flush draw, plus it still being multi-way, being what made me shy away from raising…

Calling 3b multi-way with KQ
Unknown oppos and I'd only been for a couple of hands. Slightly larger open given someone sat and posted blinds.

Feels like I'm bloating the pot and driving out most hands I beat,…
