Losing Value with AA

Hi

Its my first post on the site and just wanted some opinions with this hand. I was dealt pocket Aces and get called by a 26/16 (gendrix) and called by 32/19 (Lubenec). I think I played the flop correctly (cont bet could have been higher as the board was super drawy) but after getting called by Lubenec his donk bet really confuses me. I really didn't put him on trips as he played his ...

AQ in middle position

How to beat Bodog?

Hi,

Having a rough start at Bodog...the style of play is so different here and Im not sure if Im countering my opponents in an optimal way.

At my previous site, playersonly, member of Merge, I met a lot of weak(ish) tags and nits and the occasional station. I have developed skills to be able to beat those players (a lot of credit to OP). Their playing styles are based on patterns and logic and ...

Howdy!

Hi everyone,

I was very glad I stumbled across this training site, I am massively enjoying the vids (hockeyguy and atta so far) and I look forward to participating on the forums. I am finding both hockeyguy + atta's vids to be super helpful and I can instantly see my game progress having watched and taken notes on their vids.

Thanks guys!
