Skills, Mookie and Smooth Calling with Draws on the Flop
[Hammer Player's Poker Blog] So first and foremost, given the bias towards high-card and Ace-having starting hands, the opponent in this hand likely had some kind of top pair hand as opposed to hidden two pairs or something like that. The likelihood of one's opponent having precisely one pair is one factor that I think weighs in favor of just making the smooth call in this spot.

Resisting The Raising Reflex In No-Limit Hold’em
[Noted Poker Authority] But another important goal is to protect your hand - or really, to protect the pot. Since the pot is generally large (maybe eight or ten bets) compared to the size of a raise (one bet), it’s often worth it to throw in an extra raise in an unclear situation to try to fold out your opponents and consolidate your winning chances.

Reg 3rd In Stars $8 Rebuy $20K Guaranteed For $3568.01 - 26th May 2008
[Poker Forum - Eat My Stack] This can sometimes work against me, as I often start the freezeout stage with a shorter than average stack but I find it’s too easy and expensive to gamble early on with speculative hands. I also like to play the torunaments for the value and there isn’t a lot of value in the games if you’re regularly re-buying five or six times.

MAN UTD: DOUBLE GLORY!
[blackvelvetkitten♥] There United were to have their glory but not before Ronaldo had his penalty saved by Petr Cech, to give Chelsea a brief advantage. When Terry squandered this, Anderson scored to level - then Kalou and Giggs both netted before Anelka stepped up for the final decisive spot-kick, saved superbly by Edwin van der Sar.

Loosening Up Before the Flop - Part 2
[Free Online Poker] By the same token, I’ll play a lot looser when I’m on the button and it’s folded to me: any Ace, any King, any suited Queen, basically any two suited cards 4 or higher, and usually any two unsuited cards that are 8 or higher. This puts 59% of the hands into play, which are just about how many you should play in that spot.

Back to the Basics.....Pot Odds
[Rakeback Poker Forum] Basic definition: Pot Odds would be the the ratio between the pot amount in comparison to the bet you are facing. Example: lets say the pot is $200 and your opponent bets $20, your pot odds would be 11 to 1, since you need to call $20 to stay in the pot.

Medium suited ace in the SB with big stacks limping, bubble of a SNG
[Daily Hand Quiz] To me, the button call is a mediocre hand that he is hoping to play against UTG cheaply. That’s not to say that he would fold if we shoved, but I would expect to see a hand like 66 or KQs from the button, which I’ll gladly take with the extra bets from the BB and UTG to sweeten.
