Hello, I’m now bothered about the two very interesting hands I played just recently. Well, the game was $2.5/5 NL Hold’em. At some point, there was a very hand before the other one which I raised on the button to $20 with A-J. I got three callers for it, thus making it a multi-way pot [...]

In most readings, I noticed that no limit texas holdem is either about deep stack no limit or extreme short stack no limit, but if you’ll try to look at the majority of the lower to middle buy-in NL cash games, you will see couple of differences. You can play a wide variety of starting [...]

In one of my games, I am not sure if I played recklessly for a certain hand. It was actually the last hand of our 2/4 NL. I’ve been dealt Kd2d in the big blind. Eventually everyone called the big-blind and the flop came 8cKc8d. I considered the small blind having lost about 9 buy-ins [...]

I’ve been having bad beats quite often since last week, particularly when playing KK pre-flop. Because of this, a question has popped out in my mind the other day. In your opinion, do you think it is wise to go all-in or call all-in with all my stack? Or just fold and patiently wait for [...]

Hi, I’m just curious, can you share to me what NL games do you typically play? I hope you don’t mind if I ask. By the way, how does the game change compared to lower limit games? I want to find out how higher limit players think about the game in general. In our place, [...]

Hi, I’m curious if how do players in a 6-handed high-stake online game look to exploit weak play. I have no idea. By the way, is there any difference between actual value bet and scared bet on different streets? And how much limping is permitted? Also, do you have an idea about the various ways [...]

Hello, I don’t have much idea about 6-handed high-stakes online games. Let’s say in a particular 6-handed high-stakes online game, how frequent does a call in position slow down a lead bettor, or other way around, post flop? Do the players have to anticipate more bluffs along the way? How about big pots with weak [...]

Ever since, I never thought of high-limits being bluff fest events. I know poker is all about making a hand and being paid off. However, better players play stronger and look to control the action no matter if they are betting, bluffing, semi-bluffing, or the like. In my case, I love to play small ball [...]

Let’s say in a cash game at a local card room, with 7 players, blinds 2/3. The players at the table were known for being tight and agressive. In front of me, a few hundred of those players. For an instance, I’m UTG with AQs and raised to $9. Then, folded to button who re-raised [...]

Hi, My question has something to do with one of my no limit games where the buy-in is $4,000 and the blinds 10/20. By the way, I’ve got 3,500. In that particular game, everyone had folded to me. Quite surprised, I picked up Ad 5s when I was in the button. I actually thought of [...]
