MMAsherdog Analyzes Student's Poker Game: Part 2
MMAsherdog advises that folding is appropriate against a triple raise from the second position due to high rake. He suggests that K4s and Q6s can be defended even with a rake of 50. MMAsherdog notes that KJo is a poor hand for playing in 3-bet pots due to its vulnerability to being dominated.
MMAsherdog recommends aggressive check-raising on a dry flop with a weak flush draw. He also advises that a smaller raise size makes an opponent's all-in less profitable. MMAsherdog suggests that a tuz is not a card to automatically bet a second barrel.
MMAsherdog recommends folding against a small blind's bet on the river, suggesting it might be a weak hand like a valet or nine. He advises that against a triple raise from the small blind, one should continue with a low rake and fold with a high rake. MMAsherdog suggests that against a small blind with a short stack, one can open a bit looser. He recommends checking against strong players and betting against weak players on the turn.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
