ANSWERS AND ANALYSIS

Holding: .

Answer 1: (a) -2 (b) 3 (c) 4 (d) 10.

Howard was never happier than when reraising. Therefore slowplaying this hand was not called for, and it was better to power ahead.

Flop: .

Answer 2: (a) 10 (b) 2 (c) 7.

I do not usually slowplay my trip aces. It is always possible to get turned over by someone making an accidental straight. However, I made an exception here. I can only be beaten by three jacks or three tens, if that happens to give someone a straight. If anyone were to make quads then I was doomed anyway.

Turn: .

Answer 3: (a) -1 (b) 3 (c) 10.

My hand is not as tremendous as heretofore, but still! I have 17 cards to make me the nut full house or nut flush, and three further cards to give me the nut straight. I am probably still winning.

River: .

Answer 4: (a) 10 (b) 2 (c) -2.

There is no way that I am going to be called unless Boris has the nut straight. If you are really fearful of making an almighty mess of the hand, it is okay to squander $500 on a bet.

Answer 5: (a) 10 (b) 1 (c) -1 (d) -3.

Reason 5: I have clearly been done over and it would be senseless to lose any more money in this pot.
