You probably missed a bet by raising the turn here :)And you are ridiculously lucky today, get in as much hands as possible (*cough* the AA hand with 4 flush* hitting and playing with generally nimrods )

[wrto4556]

The raise ont he turn with AKs wouldn't be for value, so why should I? Im not getting anyone to fold...

[Vade]

Wouldn't this be an excellent time to build a bigger pot with 15 outs?

i only have one card to come with 12 outs....I may be reverse dominated. I need more callers, I think smooth calling has more value than raising.

Ok then

[wrto4556]

I would have called.the guy that was in there would raise a worse two pair often enough. He wasn't very bright.

Preflop: FishPwner is SB with A, A. 2 folds, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, 3 folds, FishPwner raises, BB calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls. Flop: (8 SB) 6, K, 9 (4 players) FishPwner bets, BB folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls. Turn: (5 BB) 2 (2 players) FishPwner bets, MP2 calls. Worst. Card. Ever. To be honest, I had no clue what to do. Bet, of coarse, but if he calls, do I still keep the pedal down or do I check/fold? I ended up deciding to bet until he raised. River: (7 BB) 4 (2 players) FishPwner bets, MP2 calls. Would you fold to a turn or river raise, or just call it down?

[wrto4556]

I would have folded to a turn raise and not thought twice about it.EDIT: same goes for the river, although I would have thought twice. :-)

[Blink20]

Flop: (9.50 SB) 6, J, 5 (5 players) BB bets, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, FishPwner calls. I don't see what raising accomplishes, so I call. The raise is simple, to portray more strength of your hand, and to get a free card on the turn, the obvious play that works all the time. You have position and a big hand. You also maybe be able to drive out hands such as A 6 or K 5, so you are buying yourself some outs. If you always just call in that spot, some observant player at the table will then know when you have AA or a big draw, and when you have AK and a weak draw.If you pick up a big hand on the turn, then you can keep betting, but even on this turn, I would still check b/c if they are in after the flop, you can bet someone will call down with a weak pair, I think you are absolutely right to not raise, see if you hit the river and push there.I like the very aggressive play post flop.

This hand reminds me of every jackass who has called me all the way down with two random suited cards and hit miracle runner-runner on me. Jackass. :lol:Seriously, this was well-played--nice C/R on the river, and the fact the guy didn't get the hint was hilarious--though I count around eight outs on the flop (Four queens, 3 aces if you think they're good, and the backdoor draw).

damnit chris, can't you fu[/b][b]ck up a hand so I can impart my infinite wisdom. I can't find anything that I can add to any of these. love the JJ hand and the AK hand is goot too. ahh question. since the A you hit on teh AK hand wass a heart, what would you have done if raised. would this have been a fold here or a call cause of pot size. about the KJ hand....PWNED

Look at my QQ hand and tell me im retarded. Btw, if I was raised, I would have called. I dont think anyone is check/raising me with the flush because I showed no strength.

[Blink20]

I guess I don't know what limits you are playing, or what site, because that free card play is sick on pokerstars and live, the two places i have experience at. I just play 3/6 online though, so maybe you are finding more aggressive tables, but I keep running across these silly loose/passive tables where it would be silly to not raise a huge hand like AK on that flop in position, then get the action checked to you on the turn.... oh well, if it doesn't work for you, thats too bad...

[wrto4556]

The free card play hardly ever works and it will not work enough to make it profitable. That's chip spewing. I have 4 outs, why would I raise?Do you raise a gut shot in that case? I hope not........

[Absolute]

I realize that any hand I think you played wrongly will be immediately dismissed and called weak/tight in your response, but I get slack from a couple people for not being active enough in you guys' race posts, so I'll take a shot.BTW, $800 at 2/4 is quite a session. Congratulations.

Well played, I really like only calling the flop three-bet. No way anyone outside of a very clever or adept player puts you on a king from here on out. (Of course AA is capping every street, but if he had a hand like 10-10, your slowing down on the small street would be very decieving.)Nice hand.
