Re: OTAY.. HERE IS A SIMPLE 3RD STREET HAND...
Not that often, true, but it does happen. Playing 5/10 at Party, I see a **LOT** of people bringing it in for the full bet with a pair and no kicker (for instance, pair of sixes with a 3 kicker). ...

With 1300 in chips, you just anted 100 and brought it in for 200, leavind you with 1000, or enough for 8 more antes and a bring in. Less if you're the bring in more than once. In a tournament...

Re: What Percentage Hands to Play

Re: Fold on fifth?
You should have folded on 3rd, but once you're in it, there's no way you can fold on 5th. Other than having made your hand already on 5th, what else could you want other than a totally live 4-str...

Re: To Bet the River or not?
My rule of thumb is "Will I get a call from a hand worse than mine." Will opponent 1 call with Aces up or Kings up? Will opponent 2 call with a busted flush by 2 pair? If either of these is a yes,...

I think you're right in this case, assuming Bull's read on his opponent was so clear. Given that it was so clear, however, the play of the hand is not subject to debate. If you know that that...
