I stayed with the KQ becuase I had top pair and 4 to a flush... but yeah probably should have let it go.

I've been on a bad down swing and need some reassurance... Below are the last two sng's I played in a long losing streak. The hands I went out in are in bold.

PokerStars Game #7880815119:...

Just ordered this, any word? I've read the other two so I suspect it will be just as good.

Personally I would have reraised the 280 to 600 instead of calling. You want to probe and see what he really has. By just calling his raise your giving him a chance to out draw you. Chances are you...

10+1 SnG on PStars. This was a hard lay down for me, but it was very early.

MP2 (t1500)
MP3 (t920)
CO (t1460)
Button (t1540)
SB (t1540)
BB (t1500)
UTG (t1500)
Hajii (t1500)

Ok, I was heads up in a 1+.10 with 972 starting. I had cheap lead, but I think I got a little too loose. Heres the history from when I lost the lead till when I busted.

So what do I need work on?...

Pot odds.

Ok, heres the tourny:

Dear...

Thanks... I would have probably folded to a reraise hence the 800 bet, leaving me something to work with, but having replayed the hand several times in my head I'd have to agree that AIPF would have...

Ok, last Friday I played in my first live MTT. 100 people, $100 buy in. 1000 startig chips. 1 rebuy for $100 and 1 add-on (1000 chips) for $50 after 4th blind...

Ok, today after playing and winning my normal 5+1 sng at paradise poker, I got the bright idea to try something. I would like your opinions on this...

Winning the 5 put me up $25, so I did...

I had just sat in on this ring game at paradise when a maniac sits down at the table and starts raising preflop like a madman. After a few hands I caught on to him (maniac is "whitesmoke"). I was...

Well, heres the result of me trying to slowplay my AA... I suppose I shouldn't have tried to this late in the tounry, but I thought I had the guy. I put him on tilt earlier in the tourny by catching...

Hogwash! The odds of him hitting the straight flush are high, but the flush, not to mention straight... With this many outs he did the right thing.

I would have prefered to shove all, like Gorrila...

I much prefer NL, as gorrila said its a challenge. As far as bankroll, I'd say start with $100 and play SnG's and MTT's for 5+.50 or less. Your in the money if you place atleast 4th/3rd and if you...

Just pay attention to the BB size and do some quick math. If everyone calls BB well thats simple... if a bet is made just do the addition as everyone calls or raises. It gets easier with practice,...

Great post and congratulations. I am definetly taking notes...

I would definetly say you did the right thing. You represented that ace and found out no one else had it... If you were raised I would have folded. If called and the turn was checked to you again,...

While I was deployed in Iraq, the MWR's frequently had "free" (with prizes for the winner) tournys like this. My experience with these timed tournys was that people start calling all in off the get...

Hey guys, I was wondering which onlice poker room most of you consider to have the best interface (i.e. animations, sounds, effects, etc) because I really do consider this the most important feature....

Hey guys, I'd like you to critique these two hands from some tourny play the other day. An comments welcome. Thanks!

*Also one hand from a SnG game at the bottom...


Table "Atata" ($5...

Well, its 1:23 am here in Kuwait so I suspect I'm the first! So, happy new year!

Pretty long, so be warned... Scroll to * for point

Well, the normal group I play with didn't get together last night, but one of the guys said he knew some others that were playing and said we...

Hmm, it all sounds great guys. Thanks for the advice. We have another game today so I'll let ya know how it goes.

Ok, so I'm an intermediate player. I play NL hold'em some online and quite abit in real life. I usually do pretty good, but I've ran into a slight problem as of late. The group of people I've been...
