30nl trips on the river facing 3rd bullett in multi way pot - Flat raise or shove?
No reads at the time, (I have lots now!!!) I should really fold the flop but I'm in position with a pair and a back door flush draw, and it's cheap enough with big implied odds. Would you be raising the turn? What do you do on the river? PlayerActionCardsAmountPotBalancejjbbad Small blind £0.15 £0.15 £59.10 Goldtia Big…

QQ OOP Tricky nl20 hand
Ok standard raise pre with limpets(obv say if you think should be more) on the flop i am weary of the Ace but plan to check/call re-evaluate on the turn, initial bet from villain can be either ace or standard c bet. Turn plan is to check/fold here as i dont think he is double barrelling without an ace, lucky for me he…

Flopped the nuts - Now to figure out how to get paid
Oppo has been pretty LAG. He's been seen bluffing at pots with ace high & got involved in an AI situation BvB with K6o. Having flopped the nuts I c/c flop mainly because I'm pretty certain that he will put some money in the pot for me. I figured that by playing it this way he might think I've either got the ace or was on a…

DYM KoJack early doors facing shove. Unsure what to do?
Table has been a bit cagey early doors. Hardly any showdowns and a lot of limping pre flop. Quite a passive table really when this happens. The bet on the flop is too small, i know that, but i wanted to get paid. There have been loads of folds to 1/2 pot raises. Not an excuse, just a bit of reasoning behind the weird bet…

Flopped a monster- how would you play it, and what to bet on river?
So, villain is Greg, a notorious nit. Calling the 3 bet pre clearly indicates he has something big, and he is capable of slowplaying aces/kings, so my current hand range on him is JJ-AA (obviously AA is a tad unlikely) and AK/AQ (I think I have a laggy enough rep for him to call a 3-bet profitably with AQ here).
