Quiz: The Hand in Question
OK, my guess would be, Patrik Atonius, 2,2 ... and Kingofcards AJ/KJ ... KOC raises a playable hand in position, patrick is sat with a pair, which 3 handed is v. strong... So a re-raise to show strength. KOC has position so wants to play along and see if he can pick up weakness. Flop is a standard 3/4 pot Cbet ... called…

strategy!= bad beats
i dont think very much can be learnt from people posting hands were they got it in good and were sucked out on, if you got it in good then it was probably the right play. Of course there are exceptions but in general more interesting hands might be ones where you were forced to make a difficult fold or maybe had trouble…

HU SNG Variance
I've been playing poker online for around 9 or 10 years and in that time have played on most of the major sites, yet SKY poker has without doubt been the provider of my sickest EVER run of "bad luck". I've played nothing but HU SNG's for my last 600(ish) games because they are normally very profitable for me. In my last 25…

Adjusting for number of MTT entrants - advice please
I reckon I've played well over 2,000 MTTs on Sky and have won as many as anyone, particularly MTTs with less than 150 players. However, I've never won the Open (came 2nd once) or got anywhere in the Primo. I've had a think and reckon this is because of the style of play in larger fields - everyone seems to call 4BB raises…

Test your Poker Skillz......
A very odd situation arose last night. Here's the info we have to work with. I played a £50 DYM, & knew 4 of my Oppos. The fifth I only "knew of" because he'd won a 9pm "Main" Event in the last few days. So he has a "few bob" burning a hole in his Account. ;) From that, I assumed - assumed - he might be playing above his…

Interesting hand
Hi All I had this hand last night in a cash game 25/50. Just wondering how any of you would of played this differently... My view on the hand was, i raised preflop 4x BB, ok i was on button but it was a quick call from some1 out of position on SB, so i presumed he must have something... I didnt put him on hitting the blank…

Overplaying AK
I know I overplayed AK here but do you agree I should never have been called by 6 8 suited with a 5 x BB raise, also after a pot bet where I try and price him out of the call is he justified to re-raise on a 9 outer (4-1) Comments welcome - this is happening way too much at the moment.…

1st hand in a MTT. The guy UTG raises 2BB.

Was this just horrible play by me?

Too aggressive?
Hi, folks, Played the £150 guaranteed last night and this hand has got me thinking (dangerous!). Should I have just called the raise with the cowboys instead of the all in?
