Deep in a $33 tournament online. We are already ITM with $138 locked up. Next pay jump is for $175.47.

Hero starts the hand 15/62.

Starting stacks:

  • Hero: 52bb
  • Villain (CO): 46bb
  • LJ: don't remember but villain covers, could be 35-40ish.

LJ opens to 2.2, CO flats, Hero flats with 9c8s.

Flop comes: 9s 3s 4h (Pot = ~8bb)

Hero donks for 2.65. Both players call.

Turn comes Td - Board now is 9s 3s 4h Td. (Pot = ~16bb).

Hero checks. LJ bets 8bb (half pot). CO calls. Hero calls.

River comes 2c - Board now is 9s 3s 4h Td 2c. (Pot = ~40bb).

Hero checks, LJ checks, Villain jams for 33bb.

Is this an easy fold? I'm thinking that villain has a lot of Kx or Qx suited with spades that cou

My wife and I plan on using a projector in our bedroom with a throw distance of 10 feet and image size diagonal of ~65". We plan on projecting straight onto the wall.

I put those parameters into projectorcentral's "Find a Projector" and when I sorted by price I came across the BenQ MS536. It states it is a "business projector". Is it foolish to consider buying this for personal use in the bedroom? This piqued my interest mainly given the price of $379.

I guess the alternative would be the Epson Home Cinema 3800 which comes in at $1,399 which is significantly more.

I frequently see public % and money % on a bunch of different websites suggesting picks. How is this data acquired? Are all bets on the big sportsbooks made public? Can these 3rd party websites literally see if someone made a $10,000 bet on team X? I'm just curious as to how websites like Action or VSiN get their data. Why would the sportsbooks agree to give them this data? Are they required to make all bets public somewhere? Any insights would be much appreciated.

So I'm starting a new slime hutch on my save file on my Switch. I know that putting flooring down prevents the slime balls from spawning inside the pen, but I can't figure out how to put the flooring down in the first place. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Hi r/golf! I'm a new player who just got into golf during the pandemic. I started out playing pitch and putt and have moved onto some Par 3 courses and am excited to play a full course soon. My question is in the title. I understand that calling a ball good when it's close to the hole saves time but in my opinion holing the ball is the most satisfying part of golf. Not to mention sometimes people miss those putts (speaking from personal experience). Do people just "good good" those lies just for time's sake or is there some other reason?

Stacks:
Hero: 165.00
Villain: 404.96

UTG Opens to 3. CO and BUT call. Hero 3bet AsAh to 14. Only BUT calls

Flop: (Pot = 35)
9d Qh 4c
Hero cbets 20. Villain calls.

Turn: (Pot = 75)
9d Qh 4c Jd
Hero checks to villain who bets half pot, 42.50. Hero rips for 131. Villain snap calls.

River:
9d Qh 4c Jd Ad
Villain turns over KTo

Is this a better spot to flat on the turn? Villain could have QQ and JJ or QJ. But Villain could also have some KQdd AdX QT JT type hands. Or am I just overthinking this and it's just a cooler? Thoughts on this spot?

Stacks:
Hero: 166.21
Villain: 89.44

Villain opens the button to 1.50. Hero looks down at AdAh in the BB and 3bets to 4.50. Villain 3bets to 8.50. Hero 4bets to 20. Villain calls.

Flop: (Pot = 40.25)
Ac 5d 4s.
Action goes check check.

Turn: (Pot = 40.25)
Ac 5d 4s 4d
Hero checks to Villain who bets 20.12. Hero calls.

River: (Pot = 80.49)
Ac 5d 4s 4d 3d
Hero jams (villain has 49.32 behind), and villain folds.

I was worried about Villain checking back this river so I jammed but I'm thinking the diamonds could be scary for him. Should I be checking this river, or should I be betting like 1/4th pot to try to extract some value? Thoughts?

I forget stack sizes but probably something like Hero 300BB and Villain 200BB.

+1 Opens to $1. Hero 3bets aces to $3.50 in +2. Everyone else folds. +1 calls.

Flop comes Td9cTc. Villain checks to hero. Hero cbets $4. Villain calls.

Turn 9h. Check check.

River Jd. Villain overbets for 20ish. Hero folds.

​

Should I be checking this kind of flop in position to keep the pot small? Should I be betting my Aces here on the turn?

Preface: Fishy player trying to get better online in 25NL/50NL. I understand that a question like this requires a lot of information regarding position, player info, preflop action.

I noticed that I'm floating a lot of flops with marginal hands and folding lots of turns and basically just losing money. I was wondering what this subreddit's thought process is when floating flops with hands like middle pair + fd, or middle pair + gutshot (or open ender) or even middle pair + ace high. Obviously OOP floating frequencies should be lower but in position I've been calling probably more than I should. Basically, how frequently should I be floating, and what are the spots I should be doing that in?
