I will call you. Cause im crazy like that. Most of the time they have some small pair or AQ. I have called many times with complete garbage. Some serious rags, and i win. Every 1 laughs. Im not pro as you can tell. So dont raise me.

I usually exam my risk vs gain. It depends on the player's chip count as well as mine.

Yeah , there are always lots of strange situations , where you don,t understand really who this person , which you play now ? just remember how i was going 3rd with 30K in chip past tavern,s freeroll , after that i had preflop 1010 , i made a 3x raise , my opponent moved all in for 18K chips and i decided to fold , there were people with low stakes in pot , so i see he had just A9 , and no A on the full board , that situations becomes really dissapointing for me , after that the situation was close to this , and i lost all my chips , because this time another opponent had AA , that,s poker , hope my luck will be back someday.

I guess i should of maid this post a bit differently worded, besides what i said i mainly was refurring to leadue play, have you wanted to call but didn`t becouse you didn`t want to loose the hand becouse you want to help the team , where if you was to call and loose,maybe i still didn`t word this right man i hate being old and forgetfullness,lol ttyal

Yea team play does change my game up some what. i dont take as many risks as i would if i was playing for myself.i fold alot of playable hands do to too much action before its my turn to act.sometimes its hard to figure out which hands to play and which ones to fold.when playing for the team i might let a few hands go that id normally try to win by out playing the person im in the hand against.best of luck in life and on the felts to all.have a great day yall.

Seems that i tend to fold alot of winning hands due to allin or high bets as well. but really hate it when i do go for it just to lose to crap cards on the rvr too. just finished a game to where this bigstack just couldnt lose with anything. me a dumbass got involved in 2 big hands to be put out. grrrrrrr KK vs 10 2 and Ak vs A 2 and poof i was toast.

It depends on the hand and who else is all in. If there a donk then chances are they have crap or a very limited marginal hand and preflop your 100% better. Then again up against merge anything is possible. My mood and aggression level vary as well so I also take that into consideration. Good luck both on and off those felts my friend. *hugs*

I sure everyone has done that. It really goes both ways though because some of those times you could have called and would have made a good call with the percentages on your side, as it turns out they would have beaten you. You could look at like this,"If, IF was a fifth we would all be drunk" and of coursde hindsight is always 20/20 ya know.

Just wait for you hands, and play them aggressive when you got something. Don't be scared when you got a premium. Go for it sometimes you got to win a couple flips to make it deep in a tourney.

Sometimes I folded good hands .Today i fold QQ (when one opponent raised big, in DON sng,in bubble phase,when my stack was good enough to be pacient. with time you learn to fold hands that when you start playing you would not ever quit.

Learning the team concept is tricky, first time for me, i usually will call a donk and have but now i think twice just base on how the league play works here..gl

To be annoyed at a decision too bad let it be a good or bad decision
it is necessary to deal with him because of that only subsequently how
I shall learn from him and let me not decide nearest badly

I know there are times I'm watching the hand play out and i'm sitting there with my 2 6 suited and see a straight flush hit..or have folded my low pp and a boat appears, of course, I am sure we have all had that at some point. I'm just not confident enough to play those hands regularly, so playing them in an allin hand? not very likely....so chalk it up to experience, I guess.

I'll tell ya, I'm folding aces in the early stages in these league games (I say that as I cross my fingers) I have had them cracked more times than I care to remember. But, I know now, just how wrong I played them..sigh..live and learn.

I tend to obey the "gap principle", so most of my hands will go to muck 'cause of all the (huge) bets, raises or reraises, to the (extreme) point I might fold AA to a 3 bet before me.

Well i usually fold but if i been at the table for a few and i have been watching the crap he/she is playing or raising and keeps doing it constantly i will limp big and if he/she raises into me then i come overtop.

In poker just like life it is good to NOT take chances sometimes only once in a while yes but it is pure risk no gurantee for ur return why do it? do that which u are certain wen u go allin u wud win but from mine experience calling an allin may work say if there 2 3 9 or table and u have nine he is low on stack u may win because he goes allin on 7 pair but if u r expecting go allin and getting ur flush draw or straight completed it is too much ask expect lose unless ur lucky day.

It depends on how good my hand is,my position,and how many people have gone all in

Everythngs is from the situations. Some times i am sure that i will lose with some kind of hand cuz this is online poker.Once i had pari QQ and was at second place affter the chip leader had about 26 k and the game was at the begining the chip leader go all in with his 32 k and i was sure that he have AA and fold the QQ cuz was too early to make so big call and to risk all my chips. When you see an aggresive player at the table sometimes you just waithing for a good hand and when you get this hand mostly the aggressive player lose a big part of his chips or eliminate you with an big luck on the flop. Everything in the poker is situations you can win and lose with everything (without royal flush off course) .
