Re: *cough* wuss! *cough*

Re: Monty Hall revisited, with a twist- survey
With regard to the EPR paradox and action at a distance, I think (as a layman, but having read a lot) that you are misstating the "speed of light" limitation. What general relativity says is that...

Re: Which hand is the favored?
Its free, but you get what you pay for...I find the twodimes interface and output inscrutable. If you are asking that question, than it is more than worthwhile to pick up a copy of Turbo Hold Em so...

Re: How can I work out my preflop %
The probability of seeing the flop from EP with one of those hands is reduced in direct proportion to the number of players at your table who watched Gus Hansen on WPT, as they take you all in with...

Re: AK v QQ
The rough math he is doing really isnt that bad, and certainly close enough for most pot odds calculations. For example, you say dont just take the 24% and divide by two...getting 12%, when 13% is...

Re: YAH (Yet Another Hand)
I agree. The one thing in poker books that stands out to me as total BS is that "Even when they beat you with a negative EV play, you've actually won $". Thats great. I hum that tune all the way to...

Re: ATs 4 handed...Ken
Thanks...yes I recognize and understand your points, I'm just not sure it leads to the conclusion to put in a raise of 20% of your chips. I think we agree if you were at risk of being blinded out its...

Re: Right move, or wait for a better place?
