Re: Did I play this hand ok?
You would accomplish the same with a 3-4x BB bet. w/ blinds @ 200 and the villian having only ~1200, calling 600-800 more commits them to the hand anyway.

Re: Did I play this right? where was mistake?
I still prefer raising pre-flop. People are playing tight so you will only get called down by a hand that has something. I don't like like limping here, cuz BB and SB get a cheap shot at taking...

I thought about it for a few seconds then moved my entire stack in. The button thought about it for really long time before he finally called. The SB and BB folded. Cards turned over and I was...

Re: Wired 8\'s in NL Tourney
I limped exactly with the intent of hitting my set or folding, as that's all I figure the 8's were going to be good for after all the limps pre-flop. Now, when the maniac bets weak on the flop and...

Wired 8\'s in NL Tourney
A hand came up the other day that I was wondering about. It'd about 2/3 way through a multi-table tourney. I have about 27000 chips, which is just about average. At this point in time, the antes...

Re: rebuy tourneys
You're right. If you have a satellite where the winner takes all, it does not appear to be a diminishing effect as you add in more chips.
I worked out the example again, this time assuming that...

Re: rebuy tourneys
Never mind the second case, it still works out.
Easiest example is if you make it an extreme. You pay $11K for 11K TC, everyone else pays $1K for 1K TC. You paid $11K to win $20K, so you need...

I was reading an earlier (length) thread on rebuys, and I don't know, but it seems relatively simple to me. As long as you are as good or better a player than the field, it makes sense?
The way I...

Re: Sucked out in low limit pots
I know what it feels like when you start good, flop even better, but then get sucked out on.
Here's the way I think of it: I can either have a table of people who "play" properly and only get 1...

Re: Hero to zero in 2 hands
No faults with your play at all, just unlucky. I do find though, that players are more likely to call your big-reraises if you've just taken a bad beat. They often (incorrectly vs a solid player)...

Re: Moron
I don't agree w/ checking the pot, but do you think all-in is appropriate? Poster didn't indicate how much he raised pre-flop, but you've only got 250 + 2xRaise. Lets say he raised to 400, then...

Re: Result
Don't beat yourself up on this one. He made a few poor decisions pre-flop: first he called with QTo from EP, then he calls a raise with a crap hand. Even if he's calling 300 for 650, what kind of...

Re: How to play AA
I might grit my teeth and jam them all in there. EP limper probably doesn't have the straight yet. A set is possible, but the limper checks on a dangerous flop. If he put you on a draw, there's no...

Re: Rate each player\'s play...
I definitely agree with most that the pre-flop call w/ A8 was pretty loosy-goosey play. But what do people think about calling a pot-sized bet on the flop?
In this case, player A showed pre-flop...

Implied odds are horrible excuse to make a call here. What kind of flops are going to make you feel confident enough to push in your entire stack? 772, 777? It's really rediculous. 7-2os is the...

Re: Opinions of how I played this hand
Pre-flop, this is a pretty loose call. KJo is a big time trap hand, and you're playing it from bad position. If you are going to play it, I'm not certain that a limp is the best idea. By limping,...

75 TC from the blinds plus 3 other callers, so the pot was 225 by the time it got to me. My stack was about 975.

I pushed all in on the flop. A pot raise didn't leave me with much anyway, so I pushed in. All folded to the cut-off who called with middle pair and a heart-flush draw. I think he had 7h 8h or...
