Any place to find Pontoon in Vegas?
Going to Vegas for a week and will be staying at the MGM and also Stardust. Are there any casinos on the strip that have pontoon and if they do are they good rules? Thanks.

Re: Turn decision OOP, A8s in SB.
I think I call and then call down against a LAG here. I'm not sure if the flop was correct I might have bet out there however I'm a little too aggressive so you might have been right in c/c. I...

Re: TT Prima - 14BB pot decision
Ok, I can see that. It's just that I'm puzzled by UTG1's play a bit. What could he have other than a big PP or trips that he's playing this way where we won't get trapped if we bet? If he had A9...

Re: session review time again
Hey numeri,
I'd like to do a session but am going to be on vacation after X-mass for a week (Vegas baby!!). I'm assuming it will start the 19th and go to the 2nd? I'm sure that some others will...

Re: TT Prima - 14BB pot decision
I think you should've taken the free card. If he's got TP or an overpair and he was trying to punish a free card play then he would've probably fired again on the turn. I think you're up against a...

Re: Defending BB issue
Thanks. I've got to find a way to get better HU. I'm probably one of those TAG's that has no idea how to play HU. I do try to be more aggressive but I know I can improve greatly in this area. I...

Re: Silly little PF w/ 66
I usually call in the first situation and raise in the second. My reasoning is that you've got the same position but you have a better chance of getting HU in the second. However, against players...

Re: Bizarre 6 max hand
I think that I bet the flop on this one but a c/r isn't bad if you think button is aggressive. I think the rest is standard. On the turn you didn't isolate so you don't have much of a chance to win...

Re: Value bet ?
I think that I check/call the river against two opponents. Any butsted draw will fold and the Q will call. The only probable thing you beat is a smaller pp.

Re: Anything wrong here?
HU with position I bet the turn here. I would do this to (hopefully) get a free showdown UI and possibly win the pot right there. I think on the river I'd play it the same.

I think if you plan on folding the turn if he bets and you don't improve you should've folded on the flop. You're getting 8 to one but as passive as he is he's probably got the J. If you think he...
