i got accused of being greedy with this hand :)
right id been a bit card dead folding most hands pre flop then get 66 so i thought id put a little raise to build the pot hoping to flop a set which i did :) so a cheeky small raise on flop then another raise after turning a full house. at that point she had pair of 8's which was on the board anyway. the river gave her 2…

All in raise on turn - call or fold?
I know this villain very well m8, and he has you beat alot more often than not here. I think it's one of those spots where the best you can hope for is AK for a split, but realistically, he has 44/55 most of the time, and ace ten suited the rest (I don't think he calls that much pre with ace ten,......so can pretty much…

How to play relatively strong hands UTG?
Firstly, this is assuming you have a deep enough stack to play (say 20+BBs). Play is admittedly simpler with lower stacks- also, assuming it's later in a tournament where blinds are reasonably high. Hands in question are things like KQ/KJ/QJ/AJ/A10 in early position, and mid pairs like 66 to 99. Assuming you raise, what do…

Time to restart my Poker stats clock.
No ive just checked my poker stats, and since 29/08/09 they do not make for good reading. Even for me. Ive won 25% of the time, not exactly sure what that means, ive also won 48% of showdowns. Ive seen 57% of flops and won 33% of them. My action is mostly folding. Very little re--raising which i find odd certainly over the…

Getting back to basics - No 2 - Bet sizing
Again, in the process of taking some steps back to move forward again, one of the things that I think is a bit of a weak point for me is bet sizing. This is more so in situations like this where I've hit top pair OOP with an OK (ish) kicker. My thinking here is that I want to bet out for 2 reasons: 1 - Given the pre flop…

Some questions about playing TAG
As anyone who has read my last couple of posts will have seen I've recently stepped back down to NL8 from NL20 to try and get back to basics. After posting a couple of hands & questions one of the bits of feedback I got was to play a straight forward TAG game which I've taken on board. So my plan going into tonight's…

Getting back to basics - No.1 - Worth taking a flop here?
First off let me start with a brief bit of history behind this. Yet again I've recently hit a monster bad run on the tables so over the last few days I decided to take a few steps back & look into my game. I'd love to say that I'd been really unlucky with the cards but it seems quite apparent to me that the majority of…

Buy in amount
Bankroll management tells me I should sit down with £10 max. However the NL10 tables all seem to allow a £20 buy in. Am I best sitting down half stacked, or should I be on NL8 tables until £400 is achieved?
