This is just my opinion, but perhaps 'a hand too good to fold to a random hand' isn't a high enough standard when deciding whether to raise here. You are going to be out of position ...
No, you'll be beat on any flop besides those where you get heavy action. Most of the time with AQ, you're going to win a relatively small pot when your hand is good, and lose a large one if ...
I bet, if he raises I'd tend to think he has some pocket pair or a set. Queens or 8s are also possible. I'd call his raise, probably betting if I hit the flush, check call a King (KcQx is ...
What is your favorite hand? Not the obvious of course, but hands that you should really be winning with, but every time you get it you win?
Either I really blew this one, or it's just one of those things (clearly I lost the hand). On balance, I think I misplayed it. But this isn't a whine; I'd like to know how I should ...
There are some situations in which you are getting nothing but trap hands, and you are at the mercy of the cards.
It probably happens to everyone now and then.

Conservatives who want to put an even greater percentage of the wealth into the hands of the super rich with their own sort of welfare. No, that's not a power grab.

I was in a 20/40 game with a unique player sitting behind me. His VPIP was 65%, pfr was close to 30. He always raised first in with any playable hand. His postflop play was to keep betting if he had ...
