Sky why do you keep giving the small blind top pair and big blind middle?
example...just me and small in the hand today im looking to shove short stacked ,im holding j8 smalls got a6.
theres no raise flop comes ja6 its a flippin joke,I shove of course.
don't talk to me about more hands on internet! We had a few decks being shuffled and ready so it mimicked internet speed in a recent private game,still not as many bad beats as internet.

    thanks for giving us the example I would have been lost without it!! when you said top pair and middle pair I got very confused....I'll have to brush up on my poker jargon!

    Its called "Jucing" jucing the cards...as sky poker, and all other sites claw in the rake, by jucing the cards, this encourages betting, or raising!

    Therfore more betting or raising creates more rake for them! Nothing wrong with this method, apart from being a little deceptive!

    The trick is, to suss out where and when this is being done in a particular game or hand!

    Be suspicious of every flop!

    I dont have a problem with this, as we are all playing on the same softwhare, and i have got it wrong many times! and, of course got it right many times!

    The hand is backwards. Why shove middle pair after no aggression pre? You are only getting called when behind. You should have made your move pre flop and tried to win the pot there and then.

    So you're looking to shove short stacked, but you peel?

    Huh?

    And in follow up, huh?

    And frankly most of your post is bereft of logic.  And I don't think that's a great flop for you to shove, you're folding out nearly everything you beat against a general player and getting called when we are crushed so much.  All aces will call, all better jacks are highly likely to call.

    Post a few hands up, we might be able to help.
