Surely not a calling station???
Played two very odd hands against two very familier cash players this afternoon. 5 players sat £3/6 with $1ante, (home game). Buy in £250 min £1000 max. I was the only one who bought in for less than the max, i started with £600. I know the players very well. Played for around three hours and last nights form continued.…

NL 20, River, Lost Value?
Ok, I'm new to this table so no reads. Decide to call in the BB getting 3/1 with what should be live suited connectors. Flop bottom 2 pair and I decide to lead out figuring that someone (the button raiser really) either has a K (or other pair they're willing to stick around with) or they don't. When he calls I am narrowing…

Mid set oop against V good TAG reg in 3bet pot - How to get the money in?
Villain is v good for this level, he has 3 bet me at least once before in this session and I just folded. Dont think he will be getting out of line against me too much. My image is kinda spewy, but again he wont expext me to get too out of line either really, especially pre flop. I think flatting the 3bet oop is ok 120xbb…

People who buyin for absoulte mimium
Hi lately i have really started to get annoyed by people buyin in for the absolute mimium, i.e. on say a 10/20p table - 2pounds. You cannot bet against these people and any 3x standard raise is almost half their stack - so the flop play almost become irrelavent. I dont mind if you buyin for say half or possibly even a…

Adapting to friendly live game?
I've been playing poker since January this year now and I've discovered that once you have fewer than 10 big blinds in a tournament there are only two decisions left: all-in pre-flop or fold pre-flop. When I play on-line I have certain hands that if I get and are below 10 bigs then I just ship (depending on the action…

Was I right to risk my tournament?
This is late in a tournament. I've moved tables quite a bit and the villain has cropped up from time to time. He's done this move plenty of time before ie all-in pre-flop. He's showed his cards a few times and he's had rubbish. I know that when he's shoving here most of the time he has rag-rag. Was I right to risk my…

Playing lose aggressive
What style of play do you guys think is more profitable. I mostly play a tightish aggressive style, but if the cards are not coming your way this style i find does not make you much money, particularly if you are up against a table with good tight aggressive players. I do not have stats that show how profitable i am with…

mathmatically should i be calling the turn here
right andnei the innitial raiser is a good player and spots danger but has been quite lucky winning on the river here and there and of course he is holding more than me so has the chips to completely stack me. i know zaffy will bet it all on top pair or a big draw.

Old hand New views
This is one of the most memorable hands I've ever played, interested to hear your views on it. The site it happened on didnt have a forum like this. 6max $5/10. Button. Have 88, make it $32, no action behind, BB re raises to $85, I call. I'm sat with around $1050, BB slightly more. Sat at this table for a while, BB pretty…

Should i keep shoving all in?
Find myself in these spots a lot where i have the nut flush draw, raises pre flop, and not really needing to get it all in on flop stack/blind wise Should i play the flop different?I obviously put Maxally on a biggish ace so him hitting the set on flop makes no difference to his moves, i even said NH when he hit quads even…

Avioding tilt

Big draw on the turn, can play it aggro or do I have to just flat?
I've spewed big time in spots like this in the past. But thinking more about representing hands, and board texture recently and maybe this is a spot where I can play aggressively rather than just flatting and hoping to hit? Alot of the hands he could have wont like the king, and I could rep 22/77/JK/AKdd here too? Or am I…

running bad and tilting
Hi I have just come off a series of pretty bad losing sessions, with a run of horrible bad beats and some coolers. My aces were cracked preflop by a crazy guy who called with j/9. I ran into set over set, and a guy hit a miracle river to pair is ace, when i outkicked him. I just cant seem to make a profit lately - though…

Nice draw on the flop
I know I played this hand badly. After betting the flop I should fold to the raise as I can't call for that percentage of my stack and I can't raise because I have no fold equity. The villain has been very fit or fold post-flop so there's a 0% chance I can be ahead. Anyway, it was the bet on the flop that put me in a…

Moving between levels
Hi I generally play at the 10/20 levels. I can generally grind it out at this level playing not very sophisticated poker. However, when i flirt with higher levels i find that the same style of poker does not really work. For instance, there is alot more of floating, c betting and there are less tight passive players. I can…
