Re: Sister\'s hand
Hi Yugoslavian! Thanks for the thoughts. What is your handle on partypoker? Which buy-ins do you play? Did you watch curtains' stellar performance last night? I'm going to post another interesting hand i had in a separate thread.

I'm going to post another interesting hand i had in a separate thread. [/ QUOTE ] My handle on Empire (where I play STTs) is TheYugoslav. I play $33 STTs at the moment. I've watched your brother play in a couple of those big MTTs for a while and I felt he played very well (FWIW much better than I would play). You wouldn't have a chance of remembering me but I met you and your brother at the US Open on the big island of Hawaii a few years ago. I was like the only high school person there not playing in the Denker, [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]. If I remember correctly, you finished ahead of curtains in the tournament, [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]. Anyway, welcome to the forum.....I'm sure you'll get much less grief here than your brother! Yugoslav (who just loves a good pwn3d curtains thread) |

Re: Sister\'s hand
i'm a little confused by the gushing responses. i don't like the bet on the river. i think you have too much hand. i suppose it's possible that he folds a 6 or an A-rag chop. most likely you had the best hand. if you are putting him on a 6 or some small pair, i think you need to bet it all to move him off it. but checking is best.

[/ QUOTE ] She had to bet, because she cannot call any of his bets, as for betting his whole stack, that is what she accomplished by her bet. That is why I said earlier, 700 is enough, because in his eyes, that is the same as betting his whole stack. |

Re: Sister\'s hand
She cannot call any of his bets? Isn't she last to act after he checked. |

[/ QUOTE ] This is probably true for the better players you play against, but I would say that for 90% of the $22 players I play with, if someone bets half their stack, in their eyes it is NOT the same as if they bet their whole stack. |
