Hello,
Just yesterday, I was in a friendly tourney. At certain point, I mucked my straight flush draw on the river based on pot odds and then later on realized the card I should have. And so I started questioning myself afterwards about pot odds. Are they really significant in tourneys?

Hi,
For some time now, I’ve been playing 10 player tournaments for about £10-20 entry fee. Well, most of the time I can make it to the last 3, but at times just at the 7th place. I must admit, when I’m already in the last 4 or 5, I’m confident ... Click to read more

Hello,
I’m not really serious about playing poker or even being a pro. I play just during my pastime. Well, I love playing online. As a player, I’m a tight type and if I don’t have good hands like ak, aq pocket pairs etc, I don’t get involved. In early stages, ... Click to read more

Hi,
I was able to join many multi table NL tourneys just these past months. Most of the times, I’m going home with nothing and the reason I believe is something related to all-ins, when I have high pockets or hands such as AKs, usually I get excited preflop. However, I ... Click to read more

Hi,
Ever since I really don’t like starting hands such as 5-7, 4-6, 8-10. Why? Well, because I typically just get weird straight or full house when I unfortunately have them. I can also just nail a player when I have a good flop.
Another thing, with such hands, I usually don’t ... Click to read more

Hi,
Yesterday, I was in a small 10$ no limit tourney. All of us who joined got $1000 in chips. At the table, we were actually 10 players. Well, I believe some were extremely aggressive, some were maniacs, and some were tight. I chose in the end to be tight aggressive.

Hello,
Just recently I joined a home tourney. A hand came up at some point. On the button, I got 4-5 clubs. Everyone at the table folded to me therefore I raised, 80. By the way, the blinds then were 10-20.
Later, both the small blind and big blind folded. Just to ... Click to read more
