Re: Interesting Tournament Idea
There is a World Head's Up Championship held every year, the most recent one just ended in Barcelona. But I think it would be a cool format for former champions. I can't think of a way to seed it,...

Addtional Idea
As an additional idea, a tournament of previous Players of the Year would also be a great tournament to watch. Any ideas of how to structure these things would be appreciated. Maybe if we get...

Re: Jeff Schulman rant
He got seventh, was busted out by Jesus Ferguson after he made a huge read on big raise by Ferguson- Jesus had 66 down and Shulman had 77 down, makes the huge call, and of course Jesus flopped a six...

Re: 88 hand, push or raise?
Pot committed is when you have to call of your chips- for example, if you raise half of your stack and then get re-raised for the rest of it. You are pot committed when you make that 50% stack...

Re: Party Poker 3 table NL
I am certainly no expert on these tournaments, being that I have only played one $30+3 Partypoker NL 3 table tournament. But I did get fourth. One thing that I did, which I would reccomend highly,...

Re: Poor play or just flat out unlucky?
What was your "moderate" raise pre-flop? It seems to me that it was probably too small if you got four other callers. You played it correctly, both of the other players made terrible calls on the...

Re: Satellite bubble: do you fold AA?
There are a few specific instances in which you should fold AA. The main one I can think if is if there are four people left in a tournament and three of them get all-in before the flop. You are...

Re: Who\'s the moron?
You put in an absolute huge raise pre-flop early in the tournament with a hand that can't even stand a re-raise. At least I hope you would lay A-Q down if someone came over the top of you. When you...

Re: Flopping a set
I think you played this first hand a bit too fast. Besides the two flush draws, there is really not very much to worry about on this board. There's about a 20% chance that one of the two flushes...

Re: Two Blind Hands Penthouse to Outhouse
Reading through the action on the second hand, that re-raise just smells like Aces. TT is fine to raise with, thin out the field, but if you get popped with a re-raise you've got to lay it down,...

Re: Tournament report - First final table - Long
Hey just a thought, this is my first post ever here so maybe I am being a bit presumptious, but those couple of times you had Aces in early position were great chances to slow-play. You had Aces...
