Should I be calling off my stack here?
Hmm given I've not played these guys before and haven't been at the table long (this was probably the 2nd orbit, which had been played 5-handed and 2 others had just left a couple of hands prior)... should I be taking a more passive line and calling pre-flop? I'm still a bit uncertain as to whether I'm getting too…

AK out of position on wet-ish flop
I got battered when this was shown on ch861 last Thursday, almost certainly fairly, but I'm not sure I 'get' why I should be betting out myself. I don't expect Stribs to be getting too frisky here, FWIW I think 87s is the near the very bottom of her UTG open range and even then only because we're temporarily 4-handed. I…

Roll out the barrel?
K2s isn't a standard 3b from the blinds, but was a hand I'd picked to defend with yesterday and the button was the sort of oppo where this would often either take the blinds pre (and make him think twice about stealing every orbit) or call to play fit or fold. Disappointly the BB came along for the ride on this occasion.…

Poker Strategy Books
Hello, Ive started playing poker again after a few years hiatus and while Ive been away its changed quite a bit. Id never heard of 3-betting and was suprised to see so many light calls. Anyway, I wondered if anyone could reccomend an up to date strategy book to help me out of the dark ages. All the best! Lee

AQo line check 1
I don't recall playing oppo before, but had a note from ages back that he can get spazzy pre and gii with any low PP. Is the sizing of £2.20 sufficient pre? Should I auto bet this flop?

AQo line check 2
I'm mentally preparing for some backlash on this one lol Didn't raise pre because the button was likely to be opening fairly wide and figured I'd only end up folding his bluffs. Button is a forum reg... not quite sure what notes he'd have on me lol... or indeed what range he thinks I'd be calling with from flop onwards...…

Interesting on the river
We go for thin value on the river and they jam. I know most people won't like the turn check! It's not to terrible I don't reckon! On the river, it looks quite bluffy.

Another butchered NL10 hand?
No real notes on guy that called me down. Only hand of note was a (dubious) call with top pair where it turned out he had bluffed turn and river with air. I'd been playing about with 1/2 pot bets on dry-ish flops, irrespective of whether I had air or the nuts. Maybe should have been a bit bigger with the hearts there.…

Line check with gapped suited connectors in 3b pot
Open from the CO a little too wide, but when I'm rarely getting 3 bet from the button I think it's OK? I know I should be calling 3bets too often, but with position it feels like the immediate pot odds alone mean I have to call here / fold if the 3b was much larger? My logic was similar on the flop - if I figure all clubs…

River line check
Should this be a bet / fold spot in order to avoid giving oppo the chance to bluff / call with worse 9x hands... or am I better off just shutting down with straight, backdoor flush and a good number of full houses coming in?

I suppose we've all been there, you get down to the river, you have the nuts and now it's a case of how much can i get paid for this hand.
