Re: How Much Influence Does The 2+2 Board Have?
Fwiw, I've also long been an advocate of the limp reraise in certain types of games.

Re: 10-20 5 handed online hand--perfectly played?
If the typical short games at Party Poker are similar to their Paradise counterparts I'd say you played it pretty good. I don't know if you won but I'm pretty sure you didn't get raised on the river...

Re: How about a report forum
I think reading how rharless checkraised two respected 2+2 posters/players off of their hands on the flop nicely falls into the "Gossip" category.

Re: From online to real play.
I'd recommend you spend a few hours playing low limit before you jump into your first live cardroom game, whether in Vegas or elsewhere.

Re: a thin hand in a big pot
Reraise preflop if you're going to play it.
Good raise on the flop. Good bet on the turn.
The river? Yes, I like your bet. I don't think you have to fear a check-raise here.

Re: When do you tap your bankroll?
It depends how high you want to play. I recently took online winnings to finance a nice long holiday. I had been playing 10-20 or 15-30. Now I'm playing 5-10 and 3-6. Not for too long I hope. Best of...
