oops, misread.AQ? this guy is confused

at an 8-handed table someone is going to have aces approximately every thirtiest time that you´re holding kings. imo your stack gets shorter the moment you even start to think about folding. the reraise to 82 looks a little as if he doesn´t really know what to do with his hand (prolly not aces then) or is just a weird misclick/slide. why did you min-reraise?

why not raise the flop? his bet is really weak, if he calls you´re probably in trouble. if he raises anyway.the way it played out i would worry about a set much more than about j9.

it points towards AA, but we could also have the flush (assuming hero doesn´t only reraise with monsters).i wouldn´t want to just call the tuurn for several reasons:- if the river comes a club we either lose or don´t get one more chip out of hands we have beat.- occasionally he might fold 5s.- hmm, my third point is somewhat moot. at first i thought we might get more action from strong hands on the turn than on the river (non-club river that is). but getting it all-in on the river is prolly not a problem.i still like raising because of point one though.

i would call.i´m not really sure what to make of him losing a big pot the hand before. does it mean he can´t get his money in the pot fast enough with aces or kings now and that´s why he´s moving in? or does it mean he´s tilting and would do it with a lot weaker hands? wouldn´t he be more inclined to raise more hands up front then? or is he limping with just about anything there and wants to take the pot away?i dunno, but i call.

i don´t mind the flop call.i doubt someone completely new to the table raises there without a very strong hand. he doesn´t know anything about you either and he´s raising oop. so i think AA, KK or AK. he might have jacks or tens but i don´t think too many people build a pot with these oop.if we minraise the flop we probably take it down if he´s holding AK, if not, we lose 36. by calling we only invest 18 and we get to see his turn action. on the turn pushing is pretty much his only option if he´s going to bet. but why would he do it with AK? he has to give us credit for some kind of hand when

well, we also lose to any pocket pair higher than jacks. i wouldn´t discount that possibility just because he´s the button.i too think it´s a fold, preflop and on the river.

if he knows how to play he´s probably not calling reraises liberally.i´d say he either has AK, flopped a set or has something like tens, jacks, queens and wants to find out where he stands. if he actually had a flush, i can´t see any reason for him to bet the scariest card that could have come.so, i´d raise that turn to about 220.edit: didn´t look at stack sizes close enough first time. prolly doesn´t make much difference, but a turn raise of 180-200 leaves you with three digits behind which doesn´t look as weird.

does anybody know how many our fathers he´s got to say for all these f-words?

don´t want to make this a subsection of the nl-forum, but that´s an interesting hand out of the BB, but only to 4x. should be a strong hand. his check here really only makes sense if he´s holding a high , so that he isn´t worried about you checking behind. he can neither have the Q or J , which leads me to believe that he didn´t flop a set. he could haveA A (why not reraise the flop?)K K (tuff-fish voice: i lost with kings an hour ago, now if this guy thinks he can move me off...jesus christ...just put it all in, i´m gonna show this fogger i have no fear, godammit!) - remote possib

just like you, i only started playing these in the last days. i don´t know about the $4.40s, but in three $22s so far i finished 7th, 2nd, and 26th. this sample size is of course not too convincing, but they´re about as far from tough as jfarell is from winning the main event.if the $300 are currently your whole bankroll i would suggest taking a shot by playing 5 of the $22s, and if you happen not to make money in these, move down again.

Barry Greenstein doesn´t fold middle sets in small-buy-in mtts on stars. i didn´t ask him about it, but i´m sure. seriously, to base a play on a read/gut feelingin live poker you have: betting patterns, gestures, facial expressions, other body language, voice, eyes...in online poker you have: betting patternswhat´s really behind "feeling" that someone has aces? a player reraises --> you´re holding a very good hand but it´s still beatable--> the hands you fear become dominant in your imaginationit just reminds me a lot of the people that "know that they will lose" once they´re on a bad ru

i´m not sure his range is really that small. you wrote that he hadn´t been raising for about 20 hands and that you c-r´ed him several times. so i assume that he´s lost a good amount of chips and might think that he has to do something about it. the other guy is short, but not short enough for him to just wait for the shortie to go out. besides, he´d have to be one dedicated limper to not raise A7-AJ and small-medium pps.do you expect him to fold to a preflop push despite the odds with all but the best hands? then of course a push wouldn´t be good, but can we be sure of that?or to rephrase my q

ok, thanks people, this seems to be consensual.yes, navyman, i lost. but to AT which i really didn´t expect. i just wasn´t all that sure about my call because i knew that i was getting influenced by being tired --> not caring about first or second that much anymore --> wanting it to end. of course, terrible thinking.----> gotta work on my concentration
