Hard to get beat by a set 2008-08-01 08:55:37 One of the worst scenarios for every poker player is when finally they got a set and someone else managed to beat them. This thing happened here to Godea who after a series of weak cards and two hours of persistent folding finally reached something valuable as set of 9’s. And after fast reraising they both went all in early on the flop.

Full house or how to bush the opponents when playing tournaments 2008-07-22 05:52:17 This bright example of how to press the opponents when playing tournaments especially when they are short stacked.
From the poison of the big blind I see two short stacks at the table who are in the game without raise. With my pair I directly pushed them to go all in or surrender their chips. In that particular case they both of them decided to enter the game (which is the worse scenario with

A pair of kings and all in 2008-07-13 04:03:49 Many players are loosing a lot of money because the way they play AA and KK. I met many who are raise just a little with such hand and then no matter the pot they are putting everything.

Three kings on the table 2008-06-29 05:57:30 This is one very interesting game with hiz61 and travski on the battlefield.
Both players were confused to see the flop and they checked. Probably a value bet would have won the pot at this moment.
The true action began on the turn when a Q of clubs was opened. This gave a powerful full house (kings
full of queens) in the hands of hiz61 and the nut straight flush draw for travski. There were Read more:Three
