True Fact: over 90 of 100 poker players are lifetime losers. Although, no, the game is not rigged, statistics like this are a bit daunting to say the least. If you feel you are in the "over 90"...

Re: Top two pair facing an all-in $50NL
You called AK pre-flop, which automatically assumes that you are not afraid of your opponents holding either AA or KK. Therefore, on a flop of AK6 rainbow, the ONLY hand that beats you is 66. Unless...

I am (most of the time) a winning player. If I play $1-2 nl with a bankroll of $2000 (10x the maximum buy in of $200), am I in any danger of going bust, barring a really horrible run of cards? I'm...

Re: Poker Stars doesn\'t offer true Hold\'em
