[Beware The Turn Raise? Hell No]

Man I'm not sure why, but I kinda like it. And I normally slow down to turn raises, but with all the donkeys who have been raising the turn on me lately, I think this is probably ok.Of course, the river may have saved you from certain death by two pair :)Jeff

I'd probably just call the turn after the raise and c/c the river. But then I've been running bad and need to get myself out of the groove. Maybe i'm missing some $$ on these plays.

[2/4 Ak Flop Play Unimproved]

Textbook check here. You may want to reread the overcard section in SSHE.Jeff

Is this really a leak to raise here? The BB could have any two hands and EP1 calls. So a raise is terrible? You have two overcards, 3 queens for the nut straight, and a backdoor flush draw to the K high. What about the raise to see where you're at?

[is it just me??]

Has anyone noticed that it seems the 1/2 tables much tougher then the .5/1 tables at FCP? also, anyone notice that 2/4 seems softer then 1/2 ?

[ak continuation bet]

My problem with these hands are when a brick comes on the turn and you're first to act against the TAZ. Say the 2h comes on the turn.So, what do people normally do then? Do you raise again because often you have the best hand? or is this a c/c or c/f? I get confused by the wide range of hands that taz may have and will raise with....Thoughts?

Dude that picture is tooooo creepy. For real.

[how would you beat this game?]

Actually that SSHE tip is really about the best tip possible. It is profitable... very profitable. And I was serious about the practicing at the low limit online tables and then playing there... you'll make $$.

[why you should have your chat on...always]

This isn't a flame or anything, just an observation.More often than not, in my experience, when people say "do you have a...?", they mention the best hand that they can beat. For instance, "Do you have a set?" on an A-Q-10 board usually means the straight...and they're hoping you have it. :)Would I have called there with the A? Probably. But that's a pretty consistent tell.Peace,Jay

I agree with Jay here. And chatting just distracts from playing your other windows. It's way more profitable to multi-table then to chat in hopes of tricking a player who could be dupped by a tonka truck playing poker.

[how would you beat this game?]

Practice poker on a low limit site for .01/.02 and when you start making money there then TP/MM.

[trips to vegas]

Do lots of research. Search for promo codes from hotels and book through those... wait for seat sales.Seriously, if you want little to no work use Expedia. If you're willing to put in some time search and you will find MUCH better deals.

If you read in on the internet it must be true. Did you hear that Gus got hit by a plane? I read it on google.

[should i add-on?]

isn't it called an add-on?

[limits in vegas]

Most rooms have 2/4, 3/6 it's actually easier to list the rooms that don't have 2/4 or 3/6.... so...Bellagio, Ceasars and Wynn don't have 2/4 or 3/6. That is all.

[dealer's choice(need help)]

How about bull poker? It's a regular game of texas hold'em but you release a bull into the room (or stadium) you're playing in. If you flinch or move... you're out. last one seated still playing poker wins. Good times....

I'd like to have the rake from that game. Man' date=' that'd be sweet.[/quote']Too bad there is a $3 max...

Don't knock the rake that I want. Let's just think about it... 3 bucks rake for HU HE ... now let's assume that most hands are capped....that's 3 bucks quite often. you add that up.... man I could play .25/.50 for quite a while with that.

[how do you handle the "wannabe floorman"?]

you should go cash in 10 bucks and get a roll of quarters. Then everytime he starts yapping about something throw the quarter as hard as you can right at his forehead and say, 'here's your tip thanks for being so helpful'

[bonus dollars at full contact poker]

play higher limits and clear the bonus faster then.

[did i give up too quickly?]
