Agreed

Hero bets 7.50


Villain calls quickly


River: 3:d:


In my experience the quick call is a very good thing for me. If he had a monster he'd most likely think about a raise before deciding to smooth call.

I wont even ask as Hero should definitely lead out here- but for how much?

BTW Villain had 64 before hand started so 60 is the max hero will get.

Well since seke is gone, I'll let you know I bet out 15 dollars and he called and showed the AQ and I scooped the pot. But I cant help feeling I left money on the table. Do you think I couldve gotten any more and if so where couldve I done it?

I'm not so sure that you left $$$ on the table. He showed strength with his initial raise and you called. You went over the top post-flop and he called after some thought (maybe the delay was him actually thinking about it or maybe he was just playing a trap). Either way, whose to say that if you raise $7.50 there as opposed to 4th street, he folds instead ("costing" you $22.50 in the process). By 4th street, it is obvious that he is going for the full ride. Maybe you could've gone a bit higher than $7.50 there, but again, you don't know whether $10 or $12 scares him off. Same on the river.

Overall though, you won $27 and played the hand beautifully, who cares if you MIGHT have left a few dollars in his pocket.

Well, hte whole point is to maximize profit with made hands.


seke, if I were to play a sng, could I email you the results have you you critique the moves like trt? I feel like I'm playing fine and have been making the right moves at the right time, but I haven't really hit the money in a while. I felt like I couldn't pick a spot to push allin in the friday game either, I was waiting it out hoping to get to 4th or 3rd and that's not how I should be playing.

I won my game tonight. Not the whole thing, since we quit at 12:30 with two players left, but $92 out of a $160 game, only my second one. I'm feeling pretty good, especially since I was hurting this pay period something special. I should have gotten more out of an AK hand that turned into an AK full house on the turn, but still. I plan to continue winning.

I was watching the 2006 WSOP on ESPN very early this morning and, I know you guys all knew this already (but remember that I fairly new to Poker) but Daniel Negreanu is incredible. From watching him it was obviously that he could beat you with 2-7 as easily as A-A. He really seems to be a genuinely nice guy too, which certainly makes it easy to root for him (even if he is a Canadian :lol: ). Had a real nice story about his friendship with a teenaged burn victim.

They showed quite a bit of Joe Hachem but I wasn't quite as impressed with his play as he was hitting cards left and right. I remember one hand where he was in the big blind and completely dominated (something like 4-7) against four other players. Flop comes out 4-4-x and he ends up winning a big pot. Another time, he has 2-2 against Q-Q and ends up with quads. I could still tell he is one of the best though.
