POKER SHARK 2.0
Poker Strategy
I have question for some of the poker experts. I was at a game last night and there was a disagreement and I’m trying to find out the rule. Let me tell u wot happened. The blinds are 500 and 1000 player 1 calls player 2 calls player 3 goes all in for 6500 player 4 and 5 fold player 6 has not heard the all in bet and says call wot he think is the big blind he is told that he has to call the 6500 bet does he have to call this or can he fold or dos he just lose the BB. Can anyone help please?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Heads Up Play!
Player Y has Player X just barely covered.
Player X is the SB with pocket 2's and go's all-in
Player Y calls with pocket KJs
Player X's pocket 2's hold-up and Player Y is crippled and then eliminated on the next hand.
Question: From a pure technical perspective did both players make a correct decision in this hand?
Thanks,
Alan

I have recently entered into a bet with a longtime friend and regular player for $1000.00 which I was hoping you could help me out on. The bet arose from a hand that played out which ended with one player holding an ace high flush and another a straight flush. The player with the ace high flush announced “nut flush” at the end of the hand and the other player then revealed the straight-flush winning the hand. I cannot recall or not if the straight-flush was the nut straight flush or not but it shouldn’t matter either way. The issue that came out of this particular hand was whether the player with the ace-high was incorrect in announcing he had the “nut flush” due to the fact that he was beat by a straight flush. My position on this is that there is a clear difference between having the “nut flush” and having the “nut straight-flush” or any straight flush for that matter. I believe that each hand category has a “nut”. Such as the “nut straight” or “nut full-house” and that the “nut flush” is simply the highest possible hand in that category.

The term "nut" or "nuts" means winning hand. In the case of a "nut" flush it would be the highest ranking flush on the board in this case it was the straight flush. The bettor who called nut flush with an ace high flush was mistaken his flush was a grteat one, no doubt, but the straight flush beat him so it in effect was the "nut" flush of that hand.

Logic: The early position player who opened for $15 has been raising alot pre-flop a then betting big on the flop when no overcards turn up. This happened about four times within a ten hand span. After he went all-in on the Flop, I was pretty sure no one else would call and we would be heads up. I called thinking I had 15 outs; the nine outs for the flush plus 6 more outs for my overcards. I put him on pocket Jacks or pocket tens. I knew I was'nt getting pot odds or implied odds, but if my read on him was correct, I would have a 54% chance to draw out on him. I'm calling $92 to win $167 with a better than 50% chance of winning. Pot Odds don't justify the call but my pot equity was greater than 50%. Which is more important? As it turned out he had pocket tens, and I didn't hit any of my outs.
