Did I overplay this hand? I was hoping to force out a naked nut low, I was fairly sure the all-in guy had me beaten for high.

Here I hit call by mistake (new interface just cost me 150! in another hand). I was going to pot it, what would you do?

Hand 1

Played perfectly -- you get quartered every once in a while in this game. SInce it was 3-handed, you weren't quite as screwed (i.e., only 1/4 of a stack rather than 1/2).


Hand 2

SInce this is the goofy Swedish site, I'd take a different line than normal. My normal line is to pot it here -- the problem is that you'll probably only get calls or raises from hands you don't want to call. As such, I'd wait until the turn and then pot it on a non-low card. If a low card or a spade hits, try to show down cheaply.

Hand 1
I would be more hesitant to do this if the 3 stack sizes were even but it looks like you built a reasonable side pot against someone flat calling (looks like another A2).

Hand 2
Raise pot but be prepared to slow down if necessary. There are still players left to act and you have no idea how much they like the flop, so if you get re-raised or even flat called you need think hard about slowing down on the turn.

First hand - This is just my personal opinion, but I think that you were one of those "naked nut low hands". On that board with no draw for the high against 2 opponents, I doubt there'e too many hands where a single pair will win. I'd fold the flop there, but that might be a little weak tight.

Second Hand - Since your low has no hope, I'd call and wait for a high turn, then pot it.

[Stoneburg]

Well when the guy just flat called my pot bet on the flop I figured him for a made low, most likely the nut one. If he had something for high as well I would expect him to raise.
