You hand has good actual strength but the relative strength with the action so far would lean me towards a flop fold. All the sets are in the limpers' ranges and the raiser's range is pretty strong. Has all the overpairs, and even the A high hands we are only marginally ahead of. You have a healthy stack which I don't think is worth risking on a hunch. I'm nittier than most though.

Does anyone ever call here? Villain is very lag pre-flop playing 34/29 with 17% 3bet and squeezes at nearly every opportunity. My only notes on him are as follows:
b/c 99 on 567r in 3b pot as caller when checked to
raise 89s on 644 bdfd. Brl 2 turn and check back 8 river
Nothing makes sense to me here at all for value tbh. Literally JsTs or AxJs is all that makes sense right? Even at that the bet-sizing is very suspicious to me.

I really dont like the wording he doesnt have a picture pocket pair.
Anyway whats your plan for the turn.
Even if you might be ahead here there so many horrible cards that can fall.
These are the types of hands where people blow a good stack with a marginal holding.
Im slightly like ikilldurr and air on the nitty side of things usually.Pm for rakeback deals

Your right that his value range is fairly small for betting the river here. He could have KxJs and qxjs aswell maybe. I prob call and take a note.
Calling the flop and turn with no pair and a zero implied odds flush draw is pretty bad! I missed the fact that Ks wasn't on board, so I suppose that does give him a couple of flopped nut flushes too.Last edited by Guest; 22-11-11, 22:54.

I didnt actually notice that the Ks wasnt on the board. It probably makes it a fold then.

It's actually probably been over 6 months since I've really played any online poker, so very rusty. It's one of those 45 mans on Stars so only top 7 are paid. This was about the 5th hand or so of the final table and both people in the hand are unknowns to me. But the hand before this, UTG had 6x it to take it down pre. It's a fold, right considering the bubble hasn't burst yet?

Couple of spots...was unsure what to do on the turn as I was playing a lot of tables at the time. Guy plays 18/15 and my note on him is that he raised my cbet on a 246 FD board with overcards no bdfd and barreled on an 8 turn. Looking back at it I think the turn is a must bet as he has things like 89, 78, 67 and maybe 46s. I guess the river is a fold as played?

This one, the guy 3bets quite a lot vs steals and in hindsight I prefer to 4b call but I don't think flatting the 3b is too bad. Flop is standard, turn I think I should've folded but I saw his 100% cbet in 3b pots and 60% turn cbet and got stubborn.
When we got to the river he snap-jammed without even thinking, which I found really suspicious. I don't see how he get there with a 6 unless its 56, and surely he might have thought for a while or checked to me with AA to allow me to bluff as I'm never calling with worse. Anyway, I just thought it was weird and would like to hear what y'all think.

Around 3pm PT history was made at the Nevada Gaming Control Board in Las Vegas. In a 4-0 vote, the Nevada Gaming Control Board adopted internet gaming regulations. These regulations legalize online poker in the State of Nevada. These regulations also allow for licensed online poker operators in the state to offer interstate online poker should the federal government give its approval.
These regulations will give Nevada a big head start over other states competing to be home to the future regulated U.S. online poker market. Since Nevada is the first state with online poker regulations passed and an online gaming commission set up, states that follow by regulating online poker will certainly look to the state and its licensed operators for assistance.
The regulations that were passed will cover many of the issues that online poker opponents have been concerned about. These regulations include underage gambling, fraud, identity theft, technical protocols and problem gambling. The regulations require that a player be 21 years of age to play online poker through the licensed Nevada online poker rooms.
The passing of the regulations by the Nevada Gaming Control Board means that online poker is now considered to be legal in Nevada, assuming the operator is licensed in the state. Companies that have applied for an online poker license have yet to be approved. That means that while online poker is technically legal in Nevada, there is nowhere to actually play yet. It is expected to take at least until February 1st to begin approving online poker licensees.
Six companies have applied for online poker licenses in Nevada. These companies are 888 Holdings, Bally Technologies, International Game Technology, Shuffle Master, Cantor Gaming and South Point Poker. 888 Holdings hosts Caesar’s Entertainment’s World Series of Poker real money site which is available to UK players. Bally, IGT and Shuffle Master are slot manufacturers. IGT also owns the online poker network Entraction. Cantor Gaming owns many sports books in Nevada and offers mobile betting on sports and horses. South Point Poker currently offers a free play online poker room where players can compete to win prizes including a 2012 World Series of Poker seat.

Swift movement in the US with online poker regulation.
Could be a great holiday.
As consumers prepare for the holidays, the Friday before Christmas brought some great news to the online gambling industry. The United States Department of Justice has drastically changed their stance on online gambling, stating that the federal Wire Act of 1961 only applies to sportsbetting, as opposed to the previous perspective, which included all online gambling activities such as lottery and online poker.
Click here to view the full release from the United States Department of Justice
Many organizations in the online gambling industry applauded to move by the DOJ, claiming that this is a long overdue step to clarifying the confusing laws surrounding the industry.
“This is a much needed clarification of an antiquated and often confusing law,” said John Pappas, executive director of the Pokers Players Alliance. “For years, legal scholars and even the courts have debated whether the Wire Act applies to nonsporting activity. Today’s announcement validates the fact that Internet pokers does not violate this law.”
The Wire Act played an important role in the DOJ’s position on how to handle the legalities surrounding offshore online gambling firms that offered online poker to players residing in the United States. Many legal experts think that this move will lead us to legalization of online gambling in all forms in the United States.

Hypothetically, if I was to play abroad (In a country where it's perfectly legal to play online poker and the site I'd be using is freely available) using a VPN like logmein to tunnel into my current home network, would that cause any problems? Would the site have any way of knowing/would they care?"In the world, there are many kings but there is only one God. I am God, I am El Tren" :{)

On an unrelated matter, I'll probably be staking a friend of mine I've been very casually mentoring into micro limits cash games, is that free open source alternative to HEM any use? Does anyone here have any experience with it? Almost never see it mentioned so I'm assuming it's a bit rubbish...
EDIT - Also, one last thing...What would be a good staking deal for something like this, where it's very much between friends and given the size of the cash involved I'm not all that worried about maximising my ROI? I'm thinking ship over 50 buy ins and take 50% of any profit made in a month until the person has enough to send me back the original stake to in effect buy out of the staking deal?Last edited by Sledgejammer; 01-01-12, 17:29."In the world, there are many kings but there is only one God.

Villian is a b/e reg. He seems fairly bad tbh. He plays 30/27 over 1k hands and his fold to 3b is 60%. Ive seen him do this small 4b oop once before with a small pair so felt I could call preflop given the odds. Thoughs on the whole hand.

I dont know much about Villian. Hes playing 17/15 with a fold to 3b of 40 over 150 hands. Both blinds are pretty much unknown but the sb was playing 12/10 over 50 hands. I probably should have bet a little bigger on the flop to set up a turn shove. Whats your plan on the turn here given 2 callers. Do you call the river as played.

IVe ran into a ton of spots like this lately. Are these just standard stack off spots. Villian is pretty much a complete unknown.

hand 1 - hate messing about here with QJo, if you're 3betting it's almost certainly 3b/f vs this kind of guy. Don't like bluff catching with muck without specific reads after the turn either.
hand 2 - call the 3bet imo. shit your pants at the mini 5bet
hand 3 - interesting river situation. UTG can only really be bluffing with 88/99 in this spot, and that's pretty much only to make you fold JJ and QQ, which is pretty much what you always have in this spot tbh. I think we see AK here almost all the time though.
hand 4 - I think you've played this spot on.

What do people think of the hand below.
I reckon i should raise pre and c bet flop bigger the way i played it.
I assume im ok calling i have 34% equity i think that sort of makes it a fold from a maths point of view but surely other variables make it a call ?

Quick 50nl hand. Villain is 24/21 3b 13% 243 hands(6%3b sb from sb 23% from bb). Think pf,flop and turn are pretty standard although maybe i can do something different on turn? River..call it off or dump it?
Only big pots he's played are raise pre with AQ and cbet/get it in on Qxx mono without flushdraw v donk(who had flopped flush) and another where he 3b ep raise pre from blinds with KQo and c/r get it in on Kxx all clubs where he had Qc in reserve

Tough one, you're losing to AT, QT JT and an unlikely 66, 89, AK; but you beat some hands, and he can be bluffing.
I'd much rather get it in on the turn given the river card improves JT and gets there for some of his semi bluffs; but obviously you don't know what the river is going to be.
I'd probably call - the more aggro he is the happier I'd be

Quick spot from a live game last night.
Blinds 1500/3000, no antes.
Final table - 9 handed (7 paid)
UTG+1 flats 3k (50k stack - which is average stack)
No real history on villain only that I doubled him up on FT bubble when he reshipped over my raise with 99 & won the flip.
Hero in next seat with 55? (53k stack)
Average stack is sub 20bbs so quite shallow for a FT.
What do people do here & what if we were all 50bb deep?

If you raise i can see him shoving then we have to fold unless your a 6 7 x maniac and committed and you have others to act behind you
Hate games with no antes

Bob I'd definitely shove the turn in your hand and probably fold the river to the over bet.
Dice it's a fold for me the majority of the time unless the standard is so bad that you can be confident it will limp around. I wouldn't be a fan of raise/folding here with ~16 BBs as I'm sure you're getting called in at least one spot.

Yeah I think in retrospect I should probably get it in on the turn - although my thinking was he's bluffing/semi bluffing here sometimes and I wanted to leave him rope to hang himself on the river seeing as I probably have the best hand and the best draw. On the river I don't beat much of his value hands, errr 9hTh , maybe T8hh if he flats that pre- and I really hate the J obv - but I call it off anyway and he has 66 for turned full house

I don't mind calling the raise in position this deep. It looks so strong so you are unlikely to be bluffed off your equity on the turn and should get to sd easily enough. Without any reads though folding is probably best as you are in bad shape if he has no bluffs or semi bluffs in his range and is only raising pure value.
