Fold. He nutted the turn.

Yes Foxwoods, you are the greatest of all time. You rule. Congratulations. No one will ever be as good as you. Is that what you wanted to hear?... Well, you just did. Can you leave now? Thanks.

Well, presently, you can't be beat, but what if someone holds AA and the turn and river both bring aces? You don't have the "stone cold nuts", but you have the "nuts" given the current texture of the board.

Yeah, you'd have the "nuts" because you'd have the key card.

We need to respect the fact that YOU say you won 22 sessions in a row? I don't think so. Maybe if I witnessed all 22 wins and was able to confirm that they were legit, then I would. If I come in here and say 'I won 87 sessions in a row!", I wouldn't expect anyone to respect that or take that with any kind of seriousness, unless they've played against me or seen me take out all 87 opponents. Words are meaningless buddy, especially over the internet. I respect modest and humble players who play the game because they enjoy and find fortune in it, not because they want to impress a bunch of fello

So, just because Daniel is on TV a couple times a month means he's not allowed to express his views or opinions on political matters? The last time I checked, being a professional poker player doesn't require sacrificing constitutional rights...

Awesome response, I got a lot out of this. In the above scenario, let's say the turn card wasn't a blank, it was a , I would need to extract at least 3 more chips out of my opponent to justify my 3 to 1 call on the flop, correct?

It's 5 A.M. by me as well so my question probably makes little sense... so at least we're on the same page . But yes, I understand this response and it was extremely insightful. I just always hear people say when someone bets the flop vs a FD, "Well, he's getting 2 to 1 from the pot, so he can make this call", when in reality the person is getting a crap price for the turn (unless he's confident in his opponent checking) and should be getting at least 4 to 1 from the pot to see it, right? (with all implied odds aside). In this situation, generally speaking, is it worth calling anything more

I fully understand the concept of pot odds and I've been using it efectively for quite some time now (at least, I think), however, I recently read an article that threw me off a bit and I would be incredibly grateful for any clarification:In a N/L game, with details aside, let's assume I hold J :heart:5 on the button and the flop comes Q :heart:7 :heart:2 . My opponent bets leaving me with 2.5-1 from the pot, should I call? The reason I ask this is because I know I'm getting a good price for my draw to the river, however, in this scenario I'm only paying for one card, I'm getting 2.5 to 1 on

Berated? Why are you getting so defensive, I simply asked a question. You're making it seem like I raped your mother...

Why would he trap on a flop that has flush and straight possibilities? That would be an extremely amatuer play.

I don't see the point of re-raising the flop and coming this far in the hand to not to milk your opponent of more chips when your card finally hits.In this case, I think the fear of your opponent holding a higher flush should've been evaluated and considered in the face of the $60k raise, before the turn card even hit... what's the point of sticking out the hand and putting money in the pot looking to hit your card when you are going to play timid when it does? I would've folded to the $60k raise if I didn't think my flush would hold up in the long run, regardless of what kind of price I was g
