for me i'm able to put ppl on hands more easily when i play NL online, sum nights when i'm really playing good i can call out ppl's hands almost everyhand, but then sum nights i'm just not there so.. i started off playing NL and thats all i ever played, i guess i play NL cause i'm impatient. Sum nights playing NL i can triple my stack, also while playing NL it's easier to control the game. I should start playing sum limit poker though to get ready for the casino's. I feel that limit is more mechanical and what i mean by that unless your playing at higher limits, its pretty much check, raise, and what are my odds.. I'm thinking bout switching over though, cause i've read more books on limit, and i'm beginning to think its a better way to gradually increase your bankroll.

You, sir, are a moron.

You WANT action on aces. The more your opponents you have, the higher your expectation will be. You want a million people going to the flop with you.

the more people that are in the hand sir the more you are going to lose it, i want 1 or 2 ppl in the flop with me when i have a high pocket pair

I think I showed you make the most profit long term with AA if 12 players go all-in with you.

In your example, I will call very often. AQ is a HUGE favorite over JQ.

In ring in would't touch this call at higher limits (NL) it's smells too much of a set up with you opponent holding AA or KK or even made set - reverse psycology - it looks like a buy so I'll call.

In a tourney -call - life is too short. One on one a lot of pros will hit the all in button with mid par/weak flop - kost ppl will put down Tp ifs its J or T.
