totalise, although I don't agree with you, at least you, unlike the two posts after you, made sense (apart from the last bit which may as well be latin).

LOL well all the posts make sense to me (ok maybe not the last bit of Totalises), the thing about hand analysis is that we can all agree/disagree to out hearts content.
Put forward our opinion and our reasons for them, slagging off peoples play and others opinions is just rude.

Since when is J hi ahead of AA?

Yeah he is a faveourite. A very small one.

When you have 77 on the Bubble do you pray that AQ calls your all in?? Thats basically what you are all saying.

Yes i stick my chips in, but i am hoping for a pass not a call.

Spot on.

I know its a big raise but I'm all in on the flop here. You only have 3k and 1200 is in the pot. You do not want to see an off suit Ace or King on the turn because it ruins your hand.

Yes you may well be 55% over AA here but the real trick is to make yourself a much bigger favourite by giving the other guy maximum opportunity to pass his hand. You do this by going all in.

On a seperate note: Checking the turn is an awful idea once the Jack has come down. What if the river is an ace and he has A2?

playing the odds means there is always what ifs.

but yes ifm I was rude you are right and I apologise.

having said all that, about 10 minutes ago I finished 1st of 650 for $3981 so I'm in a good mood and I'm more than happy to be wrong about everything
