Not 6 max. Just 6 to the flop. Full ring.

ahhh, I'm an idiot, (been drinking) hmmmm, then I find a fold more often, but still, I get in with this more than fold.

Re: Question in Ciaffone\'s PL and NL book
 

against thinking opponents all you can beat is a bluff

also, the important concept herein is that if you call your entire stack is at risk, with that raise your opponent is making you decide if your hand is worth your stack, while if hes bluffing not another cent enters the pot

just a piece of advice, next time you REALLY want to learn something about this great book, dont respond so forcefully when someone reinforces your preconcieved notions, let the discussion grow naturally, this thread closely resembles a dialogue of theoretical masturbation

Little hostile. It is a great book, note I put one question up for discussion not the grounding of the entire book.

I don't believe I responded that forcefully. I was surprised someone would advocate so strongly a fold with such a strong hand to just one raise. I don't understand why you have to commit your entire stack if you call. Why can't you re-evaluate on the turn. Does the villain bet the turn here 100% of the time as you make it sound? I don't believe so. That is just the point I'm trying to make. A thinking opponent can make this raise with a wide range depending on hero's previous actions. I've done it with nothing to make it look like I have a set (case and point, it was against Fslexcduck when she had a set [oops!] and she strongly believed she was going to stack me).

Anyway, I'm not sure what 'preconceived notion' Ciaffone reinforced. How do I let the discussion grow IF I DON'T POST.

Your response is inane.

I like theory. And I like masturbation. Why not put the two together?

Re: Question in Ciaffone\'s PL and NL book
 

hmm how can i be clear, memorable, and yet also less inane...how about this

it would be a vast overstatement to say you understand the basic concepts in the text

a random case hand with duck doesnt address the issues or provide any sort of compeling argument

Re: Question in Ciaffone\'s PL and NL book
 

Pot is 350. It's 110 to call. You'll have 830 behind after you call. Are you serious? If you're so sure you're beat why not call then lead any turn for 1/2-3/4 pot, then if he pushes you can fold. You really think this is that cut and dry huh? I'm not saying it's an easy spot to stack yourself. I'm just saying it's not an *easy* fold.

Oh, also, there's a piece of sand in your vagina. I'd advise to remove it immediately before it becomes infected.
