a couple of days ago I made a bad play and I thought I'd share the hand, since the thoughts behind it may give some good discussion. Here it goes:

If I call out of position with AJs and I'm heads up with someone else. The flop comes K93. How much should I call? If the flop was a bit more safe like 257, how much should I then call? If I hit KJ5, how much should I then call?

If I raise preflop and there is one caller and I flop middle pair. Should I then raise? If yes, how much? If I raise and get called how should I play the turn and the river? I also tend to raise draws post flop, but how much would you recommend that I raise and how should I play the turn and the river in this case?

Have any of you played at Betonline Poker? Most reviews claim it to be very easy to beat. Looks like it is a lot like Bodog as its a sports betting site that gets alot of spillover to the poker tables. I am currently playoing at Cake and Carbon. Cake is ok but Carbon is getting pretty agressive. I seem to like Cake because of the no hud use but I see now they are ...

Played a huge pot today against 2 fish. I was wondering if my line was good.

Player 6 (Villain 1) was a pretty big fish. I had 3 barreled a hand against him previously and hit a bd flush and since that point I feel like he's tilting somewhat kind of trying to push me out of pots and never folding to my aggression. He has made this little min raise a bunch of times ...

Hey Everyone, I saw this discussion recently in a forum and think many will find it very helpful to a situation that bugs us all.

You have AA and pfr and see the flop of K73 rainbow
You Cbet and get raised all in, either by a checkraise in the blind or a late position caller
(it doesn’t matter for this example)
You put opponent on set or AK since no draws are out, you ...

This hand took place against a guy named CrazyLag who was actually a pretty TAg player. He had been sitting on my left at two tables all night and rarely gave me resistance when I tried to steal the big blind bvb. In steal situations he's calling 17% of hands from the bb and 3 betting 9%. I steal from the sb around 25%.

Villain is a 27/17 reg who folds to 57% of 3bets and 37% of flop cbets in 3 bet pots. He opens the CO pretty wide, 21%. This is a 5k hand sample.
