Raise KQs preflop.Raise KTs preflop from the CO. Cap the turn.Fold Q7s preflop. The turn fold is read dependent. I don't do it much...he could be raising the A T .I like everything else.

A bit too rock garden, it seems, especially in the 1-2 games :? The 2-4 razz is very juicy, though, since most people don't know how to play razz.As for the hands:1) Nice check raise. I'd do that every time also.2) Nicely done.3) Eh... turn fold is close. You would've lost a bundle on the river, but if you were just against 55 you'd get the same betting patterns and win a nice one. I'd say this is read dependent - would SB reraise with anything less than a set here? Would UTG be raising with A K thinking he is still ahead?4)Cap turn as everyone else said. I'm amazed at how many players on 1-2 in FTP do the turn check raise with a set, though - it makes me respect them a lot more.5)Checking the river is fine. He mightve had a weak ace or something if he's so fishy, as you said.

btw, does anyone else like isolating with a 3bet preflop in the 99 hand? maybe if you were on the button instead of SB...hmmm...

i like the idea of a reraise here...granted, the only person you're gonna knock out is the BB, but you will also gain a decent amount of information here depending on your opponent's reaction. after all, he could be opening with almost anything.dave.
