Re: Near the bubble, short stack, hand analysis

After the flop the...

Re: Call w/ any two here?
I think the posts on this thread are a clear indication that valuable contributors in this community already have a good understanding of "inflection points".

Re: techniques for letting out frustration
Play a Heads Up match at a limit where the money is significantly below what you would normally play for your bankroll. As in, you really don't care if you win or throw away your "small" entry fee....
