In Response to Re: Play My Hand requests..... : Sorry James, The way I read it, I've got P1 covered with possible T,(A), but with P2 shoving with possible set, I've only got one out to catch P2 up? I'm calling to keep P1 in the side pot. I just thought I got lucky with the A on the turn, which I thought was the only one left in the deck.
Posted by Red_King

I don't think you need to obsess TOO much over P2's range, because he's super short-stacked and shoving for next to nothing. He's called off so many of his chips pre-flop, that he'll make that all-in move with plenty of hands that you have crushed (e.g. AT, KT, QT, JT, JJ, 99, 88, 77). And, on the rare occasion that he DOES have a set, it won't cost you that much. Plus - you still have outs. Plus - you can make more than you've just lost by winning the side-pot against P1, who you've correctly put on top pair!

Hope that helps,

James.

Kevilfish · March 2010

Hi, I've got a few hands I was involved in this morning;

I had never played 50p/£1 before, I wouldn't really consider myself a cash player but I was feeling confident!

ID - 243820137

table - master cash 11

date - 21/03

time - 02.38

This was my 6th hand in the session, I had no reads on individual players, just a general thought on how players would play at this level, (from watching master cash).

River bet

My thought process when I was faced with a awkward decision on the river was; AHOORA probably doesn't bet that with a marginally better hand than the pair of Aces - like 2-pair, I can't see him having flopped the set as the flop was quite dangerous and surely it would have been raised on the flop or turn to protect the set. As I said I had no individual reads on any players but I know in general players at this level can and will make moves, this helped me make the decision for 2 reasons, if he had the 7 in his hand, it is possible he'd have made a semi-bluff raise on the flop or turn and secondly, this bet may also be a move, a danger card has come - a pot is there to be won. I end up calling - I'm getting 3/1 to make the call, I think I'm ahead here.

ID - 243820545

table - mc11

date - 21/03

time - 02.42

In this hand, I've made a raise pre-flop, hit, made the continuation bet and then checked the turn.

Turn Check

I felt I was ahead here. I didn't feel FREELANCER was strong enough to call a third bet so I check, yes it is a risk letting him hitting on the river, but if he doesn't, the only way he will win the hand is with a bet, my check may encourage him to follow up with a river-bet or even a check-raise - increasing the value from the hand. The pot is only £20, even if I do get sucked-out, I didn't feel I could lose my stack in this hand, or maybe that was just my naivety.

I improve on the river, FREELANCER checks, I bet £12 into the £19.50 hoping it looks like a last-ditch attempt to steal the pot, my opponent correctly folds.

ID - 243821022

table - mc11

date - 21/03

time - 02.47

I decide to dance, I raise it with an 8-10 of diamonds, I feel I have a tight image at the table, I get one call, an 8-high flop, and a paired-board on the turn. The river brings a 3rd 4 - I check and call the bet.

River Check

My thoughts here are my opponent has either a 4, an over-pair or I am ahead with the full house. My reasoning behind the check is (1), I'm not going to lose as much if I am behind than if I had bet then walked into an all-in or big raise - pot control you could say, (2), by betting it would probably mean my opponent -who I had seen river-bet lightly against me previously- it would take away the chance of him betting into me with a worse hand.

River Call

I called the bet on the end because of the last hand I had played against this player, I knew the bet was coming, I've still got my original buy-in behind even if I'm wrong, there is £100 in the middle, £44 to call, I make it.

Finally (no big pot here)

ID - 243822558

table - mc11

date - 21/03

time - 03.04

I'm on the big blind, I call a button raise with a rag-Ace, this wasn't the biggest hand I won that night but I'm pleased with the way I played it on the flop.

Flop Check-Raise

I check raised the original raiser, I feel a check-raise is a strong move, I felt I needed to find out whether my opponent had caught more of this than me, I used the basics to find out where I was and I won a nice small pot.

------------------------------

I'd like to know if any of these hands will be broadcast because I'd like to see what the analysts think of these plays/calls.

Thank you, Kevin (Kevilfish).

Hi
Can you have a go at this hand, please.

hand id - 243686986, cash table.
I lay down the bottom full house, but was it a good laydown or was it an easy fold.
I have just started playing cash and was having a decent session making the odd move or showing the best hands.
I think i made a mistake on the turn, with my bet size, as i think gave the right price to draws etc.
Am i right?

regards

col

alias: lynx3ffect

i was putting villain on aj/aq/kq - his bet out on the scary flop suggested he had at least 2nd pair so i raise continuing my preflop strength of raising utg - he flats, definately put him on at least a J - maybe a weaker draw but i bet 3/4 pot on turn which brings the flush and he flats again so i put him on a pretty strong Q, river comes an 8 so straights and flushes out there. my bet on turn was to setup a river shove of 22 in to 24 which i do and he folds. what do u think of the play? spewy or believable?!

chrisbhoy · March 2010

id 244421921
Master cash table 9

I put in a bluff which got through against a player whom had been raising light. I was on position and it had just been called to me
he came out betting after flop which i took to be weak but when he called my re-raise i put in a meaty bet with nothing after turn(i was trying to re-present ace with good kicker). which got through.
My question is was my strategy too risky or was i right to put my bluff in to steal the pot?

Any abuse welcome!

Thanks

£80 guarenteed on 23.03.2010 the time was 13.52
I have a bit of a reputation of bubbling in games. Both cash and final table bubble. This time i came 7th in this game due to my worst bad beat ever. It was a proper 2% draw when all the chips went in. Just thought a few people might find it funny. Next time I'll just fold lol

hisaronu · March 2010

Please play hand ID 245229891, from a £1 DYM - hand played at 12:20pm on 26.3.2010. I know it's not mega stakes but if there was ever a case for never limping with a pocket pair and then getting hooked on your set, this is it.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Hand History #248158049 (00:58 05/04/2010)

Hi, I wondered if you wouldn't mind taking a look at this hand. It was on table 13 of the £300 bounty hunter Sunday night/Monday morning (details above). The reason is I folded a set of 6's in fear of my opponent rivering a flush. It was my own fault as I should have bet more on the turn but I decided to go for value as I felt it was a disguised hand(I had raised pre flop so doubt anyone would put me on a 6). The the guy made a very strong bet on the river representing a flush. It will either be a hero fold or I will look like a wally but the curiosity is killing me......I need to know. Thanks.

Hi, this was one of my first forays into Omaha (and my first foray onto the posting board), and this was my exit hand.

The main thing I want to know is whether I overvalued my hand given all the extra hand possibilities in Omaha v Hold Em, particularly given the relatively low blind level at the time.

Was trying to do my bit for Tikay's team, but let him down!

Cheers, Magicol (Colin)

How badly played was this hand?
Final table, £1k Velocity sat, bubble, 5/6 qualify, blinds 500/1000,
loser goes all-in with 5x smallest stacks, runs into AA.
Another two rounds and one small stack would be blinded out!

ps: cheers, I cashed in the main event.

Hello this is my first time on the forum. I would like to share my misfortune in the vegas quarter final on thursday evening. The top 7 all qualified for thye sunday semi and I was in 13 place out of about 20 left. Ihit qq and thought yes its time to double the seat will be mine. Then alarm bells rang as 2 others also went all in. See the action on hand no 249241513. It didn t finish here as I did have some chips left and went out the very next hand with jj. Cruel game. Thanks guys love the show . Mark Harvey tregesea31 don t ask why.

tregesea31 · April 2010

Played in the quarter final of the vagas comp tonight. Should I have left this hand alone as I was chip leader at the time and was odds on to go through. Hand no 249822327 second time this week the poker gods have really kicked me in the guts.

imber · April 2010

Is this the most unusual hand in over 250,000,000 dealt?

Just looking back at an old note i made when this hand was dealt. Number 0212052259 actually dealt a Royal Flush to the Board. Given the odds of 649740 to 1 against a 5 card hand containing this - what are the chances of the Board cards producing it when there are major possibilities that everyone could have folded before the flop, turn or river? There are not many times (I would guess) that the 3 or 4 of us remaining failed to take a pot down with a Royal Flush!!!

LOL! Looks like I came at the right time....

This hand request is for the above post, by ICKLEJACK.

The hand was a corker for me, not your typical aces v kings.

It ws in a deep-stacked cash game, and we were debating the hand half an hour later in the chatbox.

Plzzzzzz cud u show this one my other one got over looked. The hand id is

Hand History #250801480 (18:16 14/04/2010)Username - DOHHHHHHH
I raised in mid position, with one of my favourite hands, not too unhappy to see multiple callers. The flop is almost a perfect one for me, and when it's checked to me, obviously a healthy pot sized bet is needed. I am called, so thinking he is on hearts, with maybe a straight draw combo.
The turn is a nightmare card for me, and turns my hand into a drawing hand. I need to fill up now to feel confident and v bet the river, I cant bet, get raised, and deny myself the chance to fill up on the end so Im happy with check check.
The debate happened on the river, when ythe flush draw hit, so Im checking, obviously hoping to get a free look at his hand and at BEST, some information to make a note. Im not putting anymore money in, maybe a pound for information.
But he makes a proper V bet.....
Im thinking he's hit his flush, my origonal read, the straight got there, obviously I cant win, I typed sigh in the chatbox, and the guy wrote back, pocket 5's.
I laughed, thought it was a joke, but he maintained he actually did value bet a set on that board, a horrid board for a set.
Anyway I suggested he requested the hand be shown, and if he really did value et a set, I would be amazed. But true to his word he has posted it (or tried to) - Please can you show this hand it is really ineteresting one for cash game players.
Thanx, DOHHHHHHH
