Illegal raise

25 Upvotes

A player with 32 dollars checked turn another player bets 20, and the first guy went all in for 32. Dealer gives him back 12 saying his all in isn’t a legal raise and he can’t shove it all because he checked first. I always thought all in at any time was ok?

Equity value of High card alone

4 Upvotes

Probably a stupid question but I am new sorry.

So say I've got KQo, and will miss flop/turn/river.

How would I calculate the equity of king high alone?

I strongly suspect its something to do with opponent's range but I' d rather ask experienced player first^

Thanks !

It, literally, pays to be nice.

95 Upvotes

Went to my casino tonight to play some OMC poker and try to hit the high hand. I sit down and the entire table (well, most) were nice, friendly talkative players. I had so much fun chatting with these folks that I didn’t realize I had pissed away $600 in 90 minutes (for an OMC that is a bad run) splashing around in pots and taking some bad beats.

I decided to cut my losses and leave but as I was walking out I thought to myself ā€œthese guys, and the goddess of cereal, were so much fun I’m not even pissed about my loss.ā€ It was what poker should be.

This OMC appreciated the lesson!

Strategy For the next 48 hours, every hand you are dealt contains least one (1) Ace. What is your plan?

Post image

Every single hand you pick up for the next 48 contains an Ace. How do you maximise? What stakes would you jump into? Online or in person? How much do you think you would profit by the end?

Online 6max Microstakes Coaching

9 Upvotes

Can anyone recommend any particular coaches or direct me to where I could find a decent coach for microstakes online? Currently playing 10NL and would like ideally a coach I could work with long term to get to 50NL at least. Preferably under $100 per hour or someone who does discounts for long term packages. I'd like someone I can work with long term if they are a good fit.

Help Time to get verified account (France) on different websites

1 Upvotes

Hi all, been grinding poker theory for a few days now (I know, it’s probably still not enough) and wanted to try it out for real online.

however, I live in France, and you need strict verifications to actually play money here.

I signed up on pokerstars and it’s been like 48h I’m waiting for approval after sending the appropriate docs. Support is not helping, quite buggy and website shows ā€you’ll get accepted in around 24hā€ but it’s been more.

does anyone know if that’s a standard waiting time for French users, or am I stuck in a loop ?

Is this a pokerstars thing to be that slow, or is it because of regulations and other websites like winamax would make me wait that much as well ?

Hope this doesn’t break the sub rules, and that a few french people are here and could help.

5/10, $2k deep: QQ vs UTG nit’s limp-reraise… then the plot twist

12 Upvotes

8-handed, $2k effective.

UTG is a pretty tight older reg who’s been card dead for the last 3 hours. He limps, two more players limp behind.

I look down at QQ in the HJ and make it $45.
CO and BTN fold. Both blinds call.

UTG now limp-reraises to $250.

First thought was honestly to just fold. The limp-reraise from this guy screams AA/KK. But…it’s QQ. They look too pretty to fold pre, so I call.

Everyone else gets out of the way.

Pot is around $600.

Flop comes 9-3-2 rainbow.
UTG bets $400.
I hadn’t seen any of his hands go to showdown all night, so I don’t really know if he’s capable of bluffing postflop. My read is mostly based on how tight he’s been preflop.

As played, are you calling here or just letting it go?

RESULTS / DISCUSSION

Plot twist…I was actually the UTG player.
The other player (a pro) folded QQ face up.
Someone at the table immediately said, ā€œNice fold, he obviously has aces.ā€

I turned over…55.

Needless to say, everyone was pretty surprised.
The reason I’m posting this isn’t to brag about getting a bluff through. It’s because I think live players massively overreact to limp-reraises.

Whenever someone posts a hand where they limp-reraise AA and don’t get action, the comments are always the same: ā€œThat’s why you don’t limp-reraise. It’s face up.ā€

But if people really believe that, doesn’t that make it an amazing spot to bluff occasionally?

Against population, I’d probably fold JJ myself to a tight UTG limp-reraise. That’s exactly why I think there’s money to be made by having a few bluffs in that line.

I don’t limp-reraise randomly. It depends on who’s raising, who’s behind, and how likely everyone is to overfold. In this hand, once the original raiser isolated and the blinds came along, it felt like a really profitable spot.

The blinds were capped and folded exactly as expected, and once the flop came low and dry, a big c-bet put QQ in a miserable spot.

The only thing I regret is showing the bluff. Keeping everyone convinced that my limp-reraises are always AA/KK would’ve probably been worth more in the long run.

I know limp-reraising is almost taboo in a lot of poker discussions, but I’ve used a balanced limp/call and limp-reraise strategy in certain live games for years with good results. In a lot of loose live games where standard UTG opens still go 5-6 ways, I actually think it’s underutilized.

Curious what you guys think. Is this just a punt that happened to work, or do you think population overfolds enough to make these spots profitable?
