    There's almost no answer I can give to that which would not imperil my job.

    In essence, if we have QQ & our opponent has 9-3, we want him in the pot every time.

    It depends, of course, how we played the hand pre-flop - if we butcher it by slow playing, we only have ourselves to blame.

    If we run that hand 1,000 times, (& play it properly.....) we win 863 times. We'd be millionaires very soon, but we need to be able to take the 137 times it loses with an understanding of how maths works. I'd happily give Villain my money 137 times if he is going to pay me off 863 times, & it's a bit surprising you don't like those odds.
     
    What do you want - that QQ holds up 100% of the time? Ain't gonna happen, ever, here or elsewhere.

    The only money the site takes is the rake, yours and everyone elses.
    Everyone is entitled to play how they want.
    If everyone just played premium hands all the time, it would be very boring indeed.

    Sometimes , when Im in a preflop -3bet- 4bet -shove situation 

    and the Hands are say ...

    Me....KK v 77 

    When the hand deals out, I think , If a 7 drops , I might have a heart attack here. 

    When It does drop  , I never seem to have one. 

    But , one day I might.

    So SKy admin, If you do bad beat me, and I do have a heart attack...how can you sleep ?
