awful board OOP large stack just give up?
i knew i was behind but by the time he jammed i just knew i commited too many chips into the pot so i sign called. TBH i get it happening in both cash and MTTs regularly. when ever it's me who is doing the betting they will just call those bets i do rather than raise. my poker when in position is very good but when i'm out…

advice on making it difficult for those who limp in the mid and late stages of MTTs please.
since i've started playing MTTs on a regular basis, the early stages of MTTs might be a very loose time, but as the blinds get towards 250/500 i start to notice the table getting more tighter, players will still limp in on a loose range but what seems to happen is they'll play a fit or fold type way and also have a habit…

Do you take the double chance here?
The main event last night was a new type of tourney for me, with the ability to rebuy right up until the tournament finished. I had an interesting decision when I busted out in 8th in that I could rebuy 2000 chips for £20. The blinds were 1500/3000 so less than one BB and I would have been BB next hand and everyone else…

Tables full of limpers and you're in the BB/SB
So, playing low stakes bh's I come across this spot a lot. Literally the whole table limping or 4/5 limping and im sat in the blinds with a marginal hand (mid pp, small suited ace, strong ace-AQ AJ). Knowing even a 5x raise will probably get 3 callers and me end up playing an inflated pot oop, the question is.... what…

Satelite (freeroll) 4/5 from the bubble KK
4/5 from the bubble of the UKPC freeroll, our stack is decent enough at the moment we are 3rd /4th out of 10-12. 6 places are paid. If we win this we have a seat locked. If we fold we will prob still need to get our chips in at some point. Blind levels are rapid PlayerActionCardsAmountPotBalanceMissedSmall…

shoving when you know youre behind
hey all, just wondering about the late stages of a tourney or sat, everyone is obviously playing a wider range of hands, mixing things up ect. but I never understand when you raise, someone shoves a rag hand into you for their tourney life. why do they do this when they know it will be behind and therefore need to come…

Overplayed against aggro oppo??
This is from the turbo open. Oppo had been raising pretty much every button. His range here is going to be wide. Not sure if I took the best option here? Pretty much committed my stack with the 3bet? Should I just be flatting, shoving or even folding?? Given that it was a turbo structure I basically just went for…

2 hands 2 Jams
Jam vs Yoyo is mostly fine. Table positions dictate this, we'll be flipping enough, sometimes miles ahead, sometimes miles behind. Got our chips in first though which is always good. First hand is probably a fold. We've raised utg but been clicked back by a 15/16bb stack....AJ shrinks quite a bit then, and I doubt we have…

cbet or Ch/Call?
both players are very passive with hands. normally what they'll do is just limp/call preflop "B does it even with QQ", B has made a donk bet (2BB) in the past with a flush draw, he also made the same bet size when he had hit his flush on the turn, but with his QQ he has hit a set on a dangerous flop, choose to Ch/C, when…

WSOP Omaha Tourney question. What would YOU do here?
Just a quick bit of help for non-Omaha players. A-A-J-5 (4 suited) are just about the nut worst aces it is possible to have. If we re-pot this, chances are we wll be playing for stacks.

Same Tourney ($200 PLO @ Binions) as the other thread, this is early in the Final. We are in the Blinds with Q-7-3-3. 6 limpers. (!) Flop is..... Q-Q-4, rainbow.

AKs OTB vs a simular size chipstack 3bet or call?
my readings on him so far were that he wasn't doing any limping the only times he had raised were when he has hands that are expected he did a donk bet earlier on a flop Jc 3s 2h when it was a 4 way pot , when the others then folded he choose to show his 99. so generally i'm thinking he is still a tight playing style at…
