PLO got very lucky advice please
This is not a raising hand. Don't fall in love with big pairs so much, even aces you want to get over 40% of your stack in preflop to be able to comfortably stack off not caring about the board. Keep sticking to NLH until you feel comfortable with most spots you get into in that before you try branching out to other games…

"Ranging" opponents
This is a big weakness of mine that I want to address. I understand the concept, but need a lot more pointers/info on the practice. Does anyone know any good books or online sites they would recommend here? Also, when you are on a table with unknown players, is it possible to range based on position, or is the knowledge og…

AK and getting re-raised
Now i just had a hand, not going to show it as i played it poorly, and i know where i went wrong. Anyways, I had AK. Raised it pre flop, a very loose player re-raises it, he'd only falt called up and till now and he has me covered due to a spiked 8 on the river with a different opponent all in earlier. Anyways my question…

Am I playing too tight?
Been struggling the last couple of days, losing due to a mixture of being passive and aggressive (I think) at the wrong times, and being extremely card dead. Blinds at 50/100 and my stack just under 3k, so not in desperate need- original raiser had been busy, but second raiser hadn't. Original raiser has me covered, second…

How could I have played this better
Primo last Sunday, 1 am about 4/17 remaining when this hand comes along. This is not a bad beat story, and I have no complaints about the Villains play, as pair of aces + flush draw is plenty big. It is my own play I am interested in. Did I grow the pot too big in the first place? Were my bets afterwards too large? Or is…

Stack off hand ranges vs maniac vs solid reg.....
Ok, this hand was an interesting one, the villain whose ID I have hidden for obvious reasons was/is a complete maniac, and I mean complete.

Big draws in cash games.
In Response to Big draws in cash games.:Recently in the clinic, loads of new theories (new to me) have come up, especially about betting hands for value, and calling with mediocre hands rather than raising, thus allowing weaker hands to continue to bet down the streets.
