    Results in white below:
    No showdown. Hero wins t1680.


    Villain seemed to be rather loose and calling a lot of raises when he had position. Felt that if I checked this to him he would bet no matter what he had, and then I could come over top with a push. My thinking here is my UTG raise, and then check raise on flop will appear super strong. Plus I have had a decent image (fairly tight). Just wondering if this is a pretty standard re steal or am I being too aggressive in this spot?

    I like it, played it well IMO.
    For Free Money, Rakeback and some 6x Ongame bonuses, I recommend PokerSource.

    I recommend Cardrunners for superb poker coaching. It was honestly the single biggest improvement in my game signing up there! Sign-up fee might seem steep, but it pays itself back within weeks.
