[Nut Flush Draw & A Push On The Flop $0.25/0.50]

Craigdog movin' up in stakes! I like it.I just read (or heard) somewhere that in situations like this where it's really really close, it's obviously not a big deal either way since the EV of the situation is so close to neutral that you can't really make a wrong decision. So, if you wanna gamble, you probably have 15 outs, but since I've seen people play sets like this A LOT, I'm just gonna dump it here.

yeah, I was beating the $0.10/0.25 game so I stepped when i got my roll to $1250 and I'm not playing scard which is good so hopefully I'll continue to move up steadily.In this hand I was a little tilted as mentioned so felt like gambling, both the turn and river were blanks and he turned over a set of Jacks winning $111 which would have been my biggest pot ever, but it's a hand that kinda plays itself so Im not too upset.

[When To Move Up In Stakes?]

I have just over $1020 and have been playing $0.10/0.25 for about 6 weeks now (since moving up from $0.05/0.10)... During this period I have won about $400 so I believe I am generally beating the game. My question is, should I stick at these stakes for a longer period of time or take a shot now? I would welcome advice from guys who have been in the same position..

[This May Sound Pathetic, But I'm Desperate]

When I first deposited $50, I quickly took it to about $130 then started playing $0.10/0.25 and quickly lost $122, I then started grinding at $0.02/0.04 then ).05/0.10 & now ).10/0.25 and now I have $1125, this took about 4-5 months but I have a solid schooling now and will not move up a level unless Im confident Im crushing the game, not ure if that helps or offers inspiration

[A Spot I'm Often Caught In....$0.10/0.25]

Thanks for the reply's guys, some interesting strategy's discussed. I played this hand disgusting and made two clear mistakes... here is what happened.I check called the flop for a $1.50 bet, the turn came again I checked called a $3 bet, the river came I think this was my oppertunity to put in a pot size bet and represent a K, but I just checked & villian checked behind and showed me to win the pot.

[A Spot I'm Often Caught In....$0.10/0.25]

Party Poker: 6 Players $0.10/0.25 Blinds NL HoldemHero has TAG image and has seen about 4-5 orbits with little to note apart from a couple of late position raises & Cont bets won. No particular read on the villian.Hero $26.35Villian $26.10Hero is BB with A J MP1 folds, Villian Raises to $1, CO Folds, Button folds, SB folds, Hero calls $0.75.Flop: A K 10 I don't like calling raises OOP, but AJ suited is a nice hand to see a flop with but this is a tricky board, what is the best approach in this spot? ( I will get a few reply's then continue to next stage of the hand)

[Flopped Nuts Facing Raise]

eeerrrr, not sure if everyone didn't read OP or if you just added it, I would fire on the turn about 1/2 - 3/4 of the pot. I don't see much point in checking and letting a free card come off, it looks likely that the villian has a K.

[Question About 1/2 Nl Games]

probably closer to .05 .10 imo, the play at most 1/2 live tables is atrocious

jesus.. I should play live

[Full House On The River]

Yeah, as has already been stated the only real problem with this hand is the size of the flop and turn bets.

Make a mental note to continuation bet that flop with at least 2/3 the size of the pot and again on the turn. If you keep playing strongly like this you will crush the really small micro limit games. You will get more action from your big hands and opponents will over play top pair against you.

[$10nl Top Pair/flush Draw Facing Raise In Pos.]

get it all in... huge draw & top pair, what are you waiting for... also at these stakes he will call!

[Aa With Lots Of Preflop Action]

shove preflop, at these stakes i'm sure your getting a call after 4 betting preflop... as played shove on the flop & hope he doesn't have the draw with KK/AK

[Top Pair In Position, Kinda Gay Turn]

It looks like villian has huge draw on the flop or already has made hand like a set, the re-raise on the flop is kinda strange as the pot is only about $4.70 at that point. I like the re-raise but I think long term your asking for trouble over the betting the flop to be a profitable play

[King High Flush Draw, 3 Way Pot...]

lol.. I just called the raise, the turn was a blank, BB checks, Hero checks, Button pushes, BB raises (minimum), Hero folds. River is another blank, BB shows AJ, Button shows KJ. The reason I originally posted was because I wasn't sure if I had misplayed the hand and not raised on the flop, but after reading all the posts I'm sure my decision was correct.

[King High Flush Draw, 3 Way Pot...]

I was planning to end the thread with the result but I want to see some blood before I do that..... besides the ending is sort of an anti-climax after all the smack talking..

[King High Flush Draw, 3 Way Pot...]

The problem with calling is that If BB has AJ/KJ or a set & the spade doesn't hit on the turn, he could lead out with a decent bet & I have to fold... No?
