A high flush on 4567s board...
What to do? Bit of backstory- 2p/4p tables, villain had been extremely aggro in raising and bluffing pots with complete air (62 on a board with an A and king, multiple barrels). On the flop I decided to go for the ride, and be completely confident in having the best hand if any spade other than the 3 or 8 arrived, but when…

Aces Cracked
Ok guys I'm putting a quest out, I'm asking everyone to go through their HH and look for the hands where they cracked AA or where their AA got cracked. Also if you have folded AA that would be cool to see. Please don't make any comments on this thread so we can just get post after post of Hand History's. Come on guy who…

micro cash strategy for The-Don!
Don, you will find many people claiming that the micros are simply unbeatable. They claim that all the players rely too much on luck, and with so many players entering pots trying to hit their draws, the ‘luck' they get is just too overwhelming for any decent player to be able to beat these limits. Micro limit poker is…

Ok no real hand as example here. Im going to add this as a question, you chip leader of a MTT and you and you get the same hand same suits etc 3 hands in a row. Its not a fantastic hand or anything that could create anything worthwhile normally. However if given the option to see a cheap flop third time round would you…
