Yet another AKs post...
1-2 NL on Stars. I've been at the table for almost three hours and the table has just recently turned over with six new players posting $200 within the last two orbits, so no real reads and no one...

Re: Table Image
I think you need to be aware of how players perceive your play whenever you sit down at a poker table, regardless of whether you're playing in a B&M, online, in a tourney, or in a ring game. It's a...

Re: THANK YOU!!!!
It was oddly comforting to know that my $10,000 was nestled down somewhere in your ENORMOUS stack at the end. Congrats, Greg, you sure as hell earned it. Viva la 2+2!!!!

Re: Question for those who know Vegas
Ah, the Hard Rock. Stayed there a couple of years back with five of my buddies. Racked up a $2200 bar tab at the pool over the course of three days. Good times, good times.

Re: Bush came in 2nd in WSOP event #25
Umm, actually, Gavin Griffin is from Darrin, Illinois. Gary Bush came in second in the $3,000 PLHE event and is the bloke profiled in Poker Kings. Guess he can buy a seat this year.

finaltablepoker.com has event reports by Max Shapiro and Andy Glazer, and it looks like they're going to have updates for each day of the main event as well. GL TD, hopefully I'll see ya there.

Re: Hand from positively fifth street
Yeah, McManus says something about how T.J.'s book taught him everything (I'm at work and don't have 5th Street in front of me, so I can't quote McManus exactly), and T.J. says, "I didn't teach you...

Deception is adding suited connectors, A-xs, and other marginal starting hands to your arsenal and raising them preflop from time to time. Not slow playing monsters.

Re: WSOP satellite - strategy question
In most rebuy tourneys, I'll rebuy immediately and then try build modestly (or, of course, double through /images/graemlins/smirk.gif) until the end of the add-on. The immediate rebuy gives you a...

Re: Early stages of a 160+ player tourney
Gotta agree with everyone else here. Early in a tournament, as tough as it may be, I lay this down. The all in limp re-raise virtually screams, "I'VE GOT THE NUTS!" You've shown a fair amount of...

Just curious, but with the resurgence in poker and, consequently, the influx of new players, books, et al., how much has your play changed from "back then" to now? I am especially...

Re: slow play the set?
I absolutely agree with Richie. With six in the pot you usually have to figure that this flop fits into somebody's hand. Charge 'em.

When I made the play I wasn't thinking, "Well, if I lose that will sure loosen this table up." In re-reading the posts I guess it does sound like that was part of the...

I knew the "95%" statement would get a response. I don't think that 95% off the people that play on Stars would make this lay down either, but I felt certain that this guy would. Guess I gave him...

That's the read I had on him. Not neccessarily cautious, but definitely not willing to risk his stack on a scary call (obviously I was wrong). Granted, he'd only been in the game for a half an hour....
