    good evening to the both of you enjoying the show.

    having called the flop with QQ one of my concerns is what card the turn would have brought. the flop had both a J and K also it had 2 hearts and on of my queens was a heart so another think I was want ing to ask is although it was a 5s here had it been a heart or 10 that come on the turn.
    would it have been better to just ignore the straight and flush draw or could I go on and make the call.?

    Hi guys,

    Regarding that AKs hand....

    Basically, he's repping nothing no big value hands at all with his flop raise. If he did have an 8 he's either gonna flat for deception or if he does raise, he'd raise more than a clickback considering were 300xBB deep.

    By the river I put him on a range of pretty much two big paint cards or small PPs. I'm ahead of all of the high card combos that haven't hit the river, the only reason I donk bet is because I know he'll checkback and win with all his small PPs when I could get him to fold them. The only small danger is if he's managed to hit that Q on the river with some of his paint combos, otherwise I think he folds pretty much his entire range.

    What makes a good poker player:

    1) Raising huge with aces, and getting called by kings or queens

    2) Calling all-in with the nut low, and hitting the river

    3) Donking out with a pot sized bet, whenever you have top pair or better

    4) Making a tiny c-bet, when you want to draw to a gutshot

    5) Accidentally inducing a bluff, and then calling it off with bottom pair

    6) Four betting the flop all-in, with top pair top kicker

    7) Check-calling every time you have two overcards

    8) Limping in from any seat, with weak aces, small pairs and any two suited

    9) Last but not least, when you make the nuts on the river, use up all your timebank first before calling the all-in bet J

    when I am on a micro stakes I never can get much money in the pot with my good hands because my bets will just be getting called or folded.
    normally all I am thinking they will hold is a draw gut shot or strong hand if I have a good hand should I just shove it on the turn rather than value bet?

    I did do that in my last hand the villain had QJ i bet pot he flat calls so i decided to jam and he called.

    1) passionate

    3) luck
    4) talkative:try and work out if the other person is bluffing 
    5) bet sizing 
    6) music
    7) drinks/food 
    8) concentration

    Sarah

    If anyone wants more poker terms explained, I created a thread in the Poker Chat section of the forum a few days ago entitled "Poker Terms & Abbreviations" which may be of use to those who are wondering what something means

    Ross, earlier in the show you mentioned having good hand selection. In terms of a percentage, how many hands should a player be playing?

    I know this question is very vague as it depends on a number of factors such as the type of poker, reads on other opponents and stack sizes, but some guidelines would be nice.

    PPS you may find a number of our lady players use female avatars
    they may not be too amused by your constant reference to them as male
    a little gender awareness may be appreciated

    yes i know many people use the opposite avatar - but they can hardly complain if you get it wrong for them

    52 cards in a pack, you need to hit just 1 of them......

    Think 50/1 sounds closest ;)

    The odds of hitting a one outer with two cards to come are 22.5:1

    In order to know that you need a one outer, you need to know your opponent's hand. So you know the locations of 7 cards, leaving the one outer as one card in 45. On the flop, you're looking at odds of 22.5:1 and on the turn it's odds of 44:1.

    It all depends how many cards are known.
