Re: Follow up bets
I play mostly freerolls, and your last sentence describes it perfectly. In freerolls (and I think most low buy in events) many of the players are only thinking about their own hand. They're not...

Re: anyone know of any free tourneys?
Absolute Poker has them like every half hour most of the time. Some other sites that have qualifiers that allow you to play in freerolls on the weekend are PokerStars, UltimateBet, and JetSet Poker....

Bankroll without deposits?
I would normally consider this a stupid question not worth posting, but someone in the MTT forum pointed me here in response to a post I made mentioning that I was hoping to build a bankroll through...

Re: beating a low stakes tourney
There's one move that I've found works VERY well - even in freerolls. Most bad players aren't thinking about what your hand is...they're thinking about what their hand is. So if there's a flop...

JJ, fishy game...do I want callers or don\'t I?
It seems like I've read many times that with a hand like JJ I should be hoping that my pre-flop raise gets me heads up with one caller. My question is: in a fishy game, why? If people are calling me...

Re: Carnival Cruise Hold\'em
I haven't, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that if there's ever somewhere likely to have a soft game, I would think that's got to be it - just a few hours may be all it takes to pay...

Re: planning Atlantis trip
Food may be better than in the past. When I went to Altantis in March they were planning to open both a Carmine's and a Nobu by now.

Re: Party $33 - AKo with 18bb\'s behind UTG raise
I would think you have plenty of fold equity here. Not only would your push be pretty scary to him if he has pair up to 99 or so, but stacks are small enough that maybe he's chosen this as a good...

Re: planning Atlantis trip
I assumed it was the 'standard' Atlantis meal plan (which doesn't include lunch). Looks like the PS one includes everything.

Re: $12+1 K5 hand, river top two
Wouldn't leading out on the flop with a bet of 60 or 80 have accomplished the exact same thing as your check raise at a lower price if you're behind? This seems like a bad place to check-raise...but...

Re: planning Atlantis trip
I've been there twice (not for poker). I generally eat a lot, but still found that the meal plan was NOT worth it. Too expensive and too much food for dinner, but you still have to buy your own...

Re: Two hands (Stars 45k)
I didn't think a nut flush draw was impossible here, but it is less likely, since four of the nine diamonds between T and 2 are either in your hand or on the board already.

Re: RESULTS : Bellagio ME hand #2
I went back and read this thread because it was mentioned in another one. What does everyone think of the check on the flop here? I'm thinking I'd lead with a bet here. Unless he's got top pair...

Re: Two hands (Stars 45k)
Without reads I fold hand 1. If I had a read that led me to believe he'd put me on a steal and c-bet, then I push. My rule of thumb is I've got to expect the re-raise BEFORE he does it to push.
