There's $180 in the pot. Don't just give away all that equity because you're afraid of a boat.

Your action is all jacked up. Are you the BB or UTG?

Bet more on the flop. You don't want your villains to get curious about how good their middle pair is. Don't pussy around.Shove the turn either way.

Let me know when this up so that I can put in notes about myself."Huge nit. Bluff him a lot. Make him your bitch."

Half the deck is scare cards. We're still not killing a hand like Kspades Qclub on a real brick. A guy should call a bet with that hand on the turn. Even just a flush draw isn't losing his ass by calling.I have 18 million chips on Full Tilt. You should listen to me. P.S., I forgot to say bitch in this post. Play me heads up and we'll see who is whose bitch.

Dude, you're making me look smart in comparison. And I'm a joke account meant to look stupid.

A ten or higher or a spade is a lot of cards. Some of them beat us, some of them don't, and most of them make us wonder.Folding > raising all-in > calling

What's really the list of blanks? Do you like seeing an offsuit jack? Or king? or Ace? Sometimes he has a made flush. Then the villain thinks, "That bitch just gave me 300 bills drawing to 4 outs."

What does this knucklehead villain calling tell you about his hand?

Edit. oops.

It's like a trademark.

Don't you think you're going to face aggression if you check?Either you make him your bitch or he makes you his bitch.If you call out of position without knowing where you are, you're letting him make you his bitch.Just fold.

Villain could have anything.3 aces is better than just anything.Bet money.

It looks like this is the thread with all the cool people.

My goal is to win 1 million playchips in March to get in the right frame of mind to whip on Las Vegas when I go there.I'm probably going to play 2/5, but if I do well I'll move up to 5/10 or 10/20.

OK, so here's the deal.You can't win at internet poker because you suck. Those other guys are better than you are.You're making the same mistakes in the live games, but some dipshit comes in the game every two hour and hands you $100, so it works out OK. Yeah, you're still losing money by ****ing up your blind play or limping too much crap, but you're thumping the idiots so you're still showing a profit.Try to figure out the ways that you suck. Maybe it's something totally original like you fold AKs too much, but probably not. It's probably not playing positionally enough and generally ove

Bet more on the flop. You figure him for a draw, so I like that you made that bitch pay on the turn.You're ****ed on the end, but he made it cheap, so you have to give him $1.70, He could have 68s.

Well, what do you want to happen? Do you want him to fold AJ or AQ? He's going to call that with pockets.This way you end up bluffing your whole stack after you missed.

If you raised all-in preflop, then you wouldn't have this problem. You know you're going to miss the flop most of the time. This shouldn't be a surprise.

Yeah, well screw Sklanksy then.It's about free money. If none of those bitches want the pot, then I'll take it. Free money.

Right, because a series of failed relationships qualifies a person as an expert.

You banged Brandi and Sklansky? **** dude, you're my hero.

Sklansky says to raise with crap in the blinds sometimes. Until you've written a book or at least banged Brandi, I'm going to go with his advice.

You're probably playing a little scared since you moved up.Say a couple people limp in front of you. If you have something pretty good (but not great) like ace-jack, just jam. Show those guys it's your pot, and they'll have to pay to play. Obv. you dont want to do this with a really good hand -- then you want action. With those hands you want to keep everybody in, so just double their bet or something.

It's better to raise from the BB. That way he knows no one has a hand that's good enough to raise and he can continuation bet first.
