|
|
|
You are holding 55 in middle position with two callers to you. What should you do?
|
|
Either call or fold. If it is a loose game call and try to see the flop cheaply and hit a set. However, if you miss your set you need to fold. If it is an aggressive game and you think you may be reraised, you should probably just fold here.
|
|
|

|
|
You have AK, the flop comes AQ2, with A2 of hearts. The turn is a blank and the river comes Q of hearts. Your opponent checks to you, what should you do?
|
|
Just check right behind him. Either he was on a flush draw, he had a Q, or an Ace. If you have him beat then he may not call you here anyway, but there is a good chance he is check-raising you here. (If you know your opponent to be the type that never check-raises, you can go ahead and bet.) Basically, you stand to gain one big bet and stand to lose two. So you need to have 2:1 odds that he will not raise you in order to bet.

You raised preflop with AK and the flop comes Qxx. You have position. What do you do?
|
|
Sometimes make a pot-size bet and sometimes just check. You want to pick up this pot if your opponents have nothing. Even if they have a Q, you still have 6 outs on the turn and river, if they fail to raise you on the flop then you may luck out. If they do raise you, you should probably fold.

|
You have AK and the flop comes K83, K8 of spades. What do you do?

You have 99 and were raised preflop by an aggressive player. You put him on AK. The flop comes a rainbow K94. What do you do?
|
|
Bet small into the raiser with the intent to reraise. If you bet out too strong the other player might just fold if he has nothing. But if you bet small you might draw a bluff out of him. Even if he just calls your small bet he may hit something on the turn and then you can go for the kill.
|
|
|
The flop comes AK7, with K7 of spades. You hold 54 of spades. Your opponent makes a bet about 1/3 the size of the pot, what should you do?
|
|
Call. You have about 18% chance of hitting flush on the turn, so you need 4:1 odds on your call, which is exactly what you are getting. The other option, if you think your opponent is bluffing or weak, is to reraise as a semibluff. You're hoping he'll fold immediately but if he calls you may hit your flush on the turn.

Omaha Hi Questions
|
You have AKJ9, the Ace is a diamond and the KJ9 are all clubs. The board is Ace of clubs and 8754 of diamonds. What hand do you have?

You are playing a shorthanded Omaha game and in early position you hold AA32, A3 of hearts. What do you do?

|
|
|
You are playing a shorthanded Omaha game and you hold KQJ5, KQ of spades. The big blind calls your raise but everyone else folds. The flop comes AK3, A3 of spades. The big blind bets into you and you call. The turn comes 7 of spades. BB checks and calls your bet. On the river the Ace of hearts comes and the BB bets into you. What do you do?
|
|
Call. Your opponent may have AK or A3, which will now give him a full house. It probably would not pay to fold, since there were 5 big bets in the pot and you have to call only one from him. He can bluff at this pot 6 times and break even if he hits even once. So you should not fold unless you are more than 80% sure he has the full house. It is unlikely that he has only trip Aces. It is most likely that he is either bluffing or has the full house - so he wouldn't call a raise unless he had you beat. Now if your opponent were the type to bet into you with trip Aces only, then you could consider raising.
