oh, and I ended up taking 2nd in this one, lost 2 coin flips heads up (pair vs overcards)

Again, comments appreciated, thanks!

hand 1: nh
hand 2: i don't really like the call preflop unless you have some sort of special read on the raiser... and i don't see why you bet the flop here with K high, i find when people don't cont bet their PF raises they are slow playing a set or two pair, in this case i would say i put him on a set, TT and 88 both seem very probable... i'm content to check behind with only a pair draw

gokorda

he was a bit of a maniac, raising with rags, trying to buy most of hte pots he was in, and calling down with bottom pair or A high..

specialK

yeah, i don't know, still don't like a big call (more than 5x the BB) from EP with KJ even if you are playing a maniac...

ChrisWinsor

Hand 1: Raise by 40 more since you got 2 limpers before you. Never min raise, it's the noobiest thing to do. When he raised 40 you should have raised by 120, remember your pre-flop raise was already 60, and this chump bets 40? Check on the turn was good, river bet was good. Most smart players will call seeing as they're only losing to an ace or pocket kings... That's online poker though...

Hand 2: You played very well. Call pre flop was risky with 3 players behind you.

Gord

fold PF in hand 2, you really shouldn't be playing anything but like JJ+, AQ+ when the blinds are 15-30, let alone when its raised to you.

thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it!

What if it was an 18X BB re-raise when you're out of position with 66?
