Re: Thoughts on new party games?
I played the $100 NL prior to the change, although I also dropped down whenever necessary to find jucy tables. So I'd play a mix of usually $100 and $50, with the occasional $25 thrown in.
With...

Re: The truth about the limitations of LAG
[ QUOTE ]
I think the suggestion to experiment with Laggy play once per orbit is great. Raise pre-flop, bet the flop, and watch the loose callers fold. It's as if they can't see your cards. And...

Re: Please pick this one apart (99 vs maniac)
Hmmm. I think if you played short-stacked -- say, about twice his usual raise amount -- you could go in on him with a much wider range of hands, not just premiums.
In this case, he would call my...

Re: Please pick this one apart (99 vs maniac)
In this case, you've got a maniac who limps on the flop, at least some of the time. And you have position on him. The easiest way to beat him is to limp with him, bide your time, and once you have...

Re: Brain fart with bullets
Not so well. Smooth calling a pre-flop raise with AA is a tricky business. Basically, you gift-wrapped a bunch of chances to outdraw you before attempting to pop him.
AA is not a monster. When...

Re: Starting over online...
I tend to agree with the majority view that $25 NL is plenty "small" to be an online starting place -- with lots of bad players -- and that going to the microlimits might actually distort the game to...

Re: Limit SNGs
That's what I was wondering -- if I'm being too tight early on.
So, basically, in addition to pocket pairs, you'd play Ax suited and suited connectors in late position when there are several...

Limit SNGs
It seems like most of the discussion here is about NL SNGs, including that excellent tutorial a while back by benfranklin.
I wonder if we have many here who play limit ... and, if so, if you'd...

Re: A good night -vs- a bad beat
FYI -- I actually happened to be thinking about this general situation because it happened to me on my "biggest" hand last night.
I've been playing Party's $50 tables for the past couple weeks and...

Re: A good night -vs- a bad beat
I'm going to reply not because I know the answer, but because I want to check my answer against the folks here who know what they're doing.
First, I think you're lucky he didn't raise on the...

Re: Party Poker\'s NL.
I play multiple tables on Party, and solved the "misclick" problem by staggering the tables on my screen (each being a couple inches below and to the right of the one above). That way, the buttons...

Re: online hourly rates
No doubt you're a lot better than me. I can see a lot of the levels of sophistication of no-limit play, but I don't know how to exploit them.
I can also see the vulnerabilities in my game. In...

Re: online hourly rates
I'm a novice compared to the other posters here. So any observations from me are properly taken with a grain of salt.
