Should I Play Higher Stakes?
I've been playing a few months now mostly low stakes cash/SAGs and the odd MTT. I'm pretty much break-even over 6 months, but I'm getting increasingly frustrated by loose calls that hit a big river. Example: Dealt K9 Suited in Big Blind Flop 10-K-Q so I bet out 3/4 pot with Pr Ks and Gut Shot Straight awith no over cards…

Micro cash advice please
I've been playing mainly 2p4p and some 4p8p for 2 or 3 weeks to get some cash play experience. On the 2p4p tables I've played a total of 3681 hands over 36 sessions. I've made a profit on 27 of those sessions and I'm averaging 45.14 bb profit per 100 hands. However, when I play 4p8p things are not so rosy; Only 5 winning…

I was in a place were I had already cashed in the super 6 £1.50 I felt that as I was in the big blind already and 2 people were already all in I decided to…

the new trend
is it me or are skypoker players starting a new trend of check calling all the way to the river then either going allin or betting big lol. e.g your on the button and you raise and get a call from the BB, i have AK and flop is K-8-8, he checks i bet he calls K-8-8-3 he checks i bet he calls K-8-8-3-9 he goes allin lol.…

Forgive me for being stupid, but I cant find the code to post a hand history anywhere?? I've looked in what are the obvious places to me but having no luck - and im sure I did it some time ago! What a noob. Sorry.

When they call your squeeze. What next?
You're playing 50p/£1 on a typical table and hold the button. They all limp round to you with 94o. You make it £7 to go and they all call. Then what? Flop is almost irrelevant, but in this instance it is K92 rainbow. Do you lead out?

Ok, Yuk!
Been playing with this guy a while - not really noticed him - So obviously hasn't gotten out of line. Pretty sure he has the flush - can you fold here? - or is it like the KK pre flop debate where you 'know' - but still dont fold? Still £38 behind.....

I cannot understand this call for his tournament.
You say you were playing your usual tight game yet you risk 70bb after you get re raised and then an all in from another oppenent, arent you racing at best there? Yes the AK wasnt the best imo at that blind level but it happens. What did you think you was up against, once you got raised to 1260 n then a shove from another…

Sky Dave asks "What Would You Do?" (19.04.10)
Morning all at Sky Poker. While most of the UK has had that spring feel about it (that and a lack of planes overhead), some of us simply can't get away from the tables. Just as well I have wireless connection so I wasn't totally lacking sun. Here's a hand I had on a lazy Sunday afternoon and I wondered what you would do on…

Confused: Bad beat? Bad play by me? Bad raise by opponent?
I never whinge about bad beats. Ever. But if I do, could you remind me of the following please: Three quarters of the way through a massive tournament last night, and holding about 20bb, I picked up Jack, nine suited (in the big blind). Just one player in mid/late position min raised, and it folded around to me. I called…

Folding Overpairs
Hi all, Assume that players are sat with 100 big blinds, and you get dealt aa. In a standard format, you 3 bet pre and opponent calls. Flop looks safe. You bet flop, and they re raise. Considering size of stacks and pot at this point, you are almost pot commited: if you re raise back to the opponent, and they go all in,…
