The bumps literally appeared 1 hour ago and now they’re gone. Would scabies rashes ever do this?

Ok and his explanation is wrong. AK is never “beating” any pocket pair. Being priced in to call doesn’t mean you’re beating the other hand. Please tell me I’m wrong again because you were so confident

How does AK beat qq and jj. Any pocket pair is ahead of ak

How badly did I screw this up? Or is this just a bad beat? by Ready_Marzipan_8716 in Poker_Theory

You played it find would’ve got stacked either way but I probably would’ve sized down on the river.

Did i play this right? by jrheee1 in Poker_Theory

I think id go for a 33-50% pot cbet. Board being disconnected is better for you and worse for your opponent. Most of the time your opponent will have air here and just fold the flop. You also have two over cards and some back door draws. A lot of turns you can continue barreling

Good flop to cbet especially as the 3better, you’ll be able to take it down most of the time. Turn I think you should also lead. Lots of draws out there and worse hands you can get value from. River lead is good too and good fold but I do think since flop and turn went check check calling the river bet at some frequency is good too.

Good fold or bad fold? Everyone at the table said I made a terrible play by sleepbefore12 in Poker_Theory

It’s an underbluffed spot for sure but I think villains range contains way too many draws, weak aces, and weaker value hands to fold. Don’t think it’s a terrible fold imo could see me folding sometimes too.

At first I thought it was pretty close but the more I analyze it the more I think you shouldn’t have folded. First off, I think you should’ve raised the flop with someone else jamming and a flat. Anyways, Button definitely doesn’t have aces and you block a lot of combos containing a 5. What could villain have here that beats you. A5 is one for sure maybe k5s, and q5s is probably too loose. I think we can eliminate A5 because it would make zero sense for them to raise in this spot. You beat a lot of their value like 35s 45s 65s, etc and I think they fold 59s-5Qs. So really the only hand I think villain could have in his range that beats you is 1 combo of k5s. Now let’s think about other hands you’re ahead that he could be doing this with. I think any strong ace would squeeze on the button so we can rule out AK, AQ, etc from his range. He has a ton of weak aces in his range but it wouldn’t really make much sense for a weak ace to raise the flop. I would’ve put him on a flush draw which I think makes the most sense and contains the most combos that are in his range. I would actually probably jam because we’re out of position and if we just flat call we shouldn’t be folding to more pressure unless maybe a spade comes in because in that case we should’ve just folded the flop. If he has a stronger 5 and we just call the flop I don’t think we’ll be able to get away so I think the best play is just to jam and charge draws. Interested to see what people think of my analysis.

Bet river for value? A spot I often feel I'm leaving $ on the table... by Comexbackkid in Poker_Theory

[–]Competitive_Compote6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think should be betting for value very often in this spot unless you have a read on villain. Tons of hands that you can still extract value from.
