Re: Taking shots is fun (low content)
Yes and no. The overs dont kick in until the flop, so you basically have a 80/160 game with a mini blind structure; assuming everyone has a button. The overs only kicks in on betting rounds (not...

Re: My Hand
Umm, maybe as a math guy I can't count (only prove things), but if a spade comes and there is still money left after a call, you probably have at least 15 (maybe 17 outs). You are folding?

Re: Three wise kings

You clearly must raise on 6th street. It looks as if there are a few draws to beat you. Charge them.
Those are the biggest...

3/6 online shorthanded - out of line?
Hi, this is my first post to the stud forum. I don't get to play stud that often; usually when I do I have played 15/30 at the Mirage as a break from holdem and done pretty well. I do not have much...

Re: 15-30/k ; kill pot
Astro, do you mean c/r the turn if he is CAPABLE of dropping a hand?

15-30/k ; kill pot
In a great game, 7-handed, and I've been running good. I'm in the SB and posting $30 since I've won two in a row, so it's 30-60 this hand.

When I was activated I played alot in the San Diego cardrooms, with mainly good experiences.
Viejas is good and the 8-16 is great, especially on days when they have their drawing.
