Weekly Poker Hand #56
I extract a huge amount of value from a maniac with an underpair. Getting lots of money in the pot with a marginal hand is always scary. You must have the courage to make +EV plays!

I am away on my honeymoon so this week’s blog post is a guest post by Pamela Maldonado, who is part of the editorial team at PokerNews. I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think!

The only problem was that one, if not both of my opponents had me in bad shape. …
