Re: Another laptop post..
I got the Inspiron 6000 a couple weeks ago. It is slick. I can get up to 1920 x 1200 resolution, but usually keep it at 1600 x 1200 to put a little less strain on the eyes.
Thanks to those who...

Re: Cashed in WPT event. They wont pay me!
This is typical Party Poker customer service, or lack thereof. I am not pleased that the money wasn't in my account when promised. I probably would have grabbed more cash on the boat if I knew it...

Re: woohoo! PPM 4 semi thread
I'm on table #116. Have only seen one flop in the first 25 hands. Blinds are coming up, so maybe I'll get to play. But that's ok. I put in my order for good cards to come a little later....

Re: AA utg
Oops. I did kind of skip over the part where pots were being won without flops. I was just thinking about the looseness of play that often takes place just inside the money. I agree, an aggressive...

Re: AA utg
AA doesn't come around that often. Sometimes you have to take a calculated risk and maximize the opportunity to get back into the tournament by limping with AA. However, I don't believe this is the...

Caught part of the flop with mediocre cards
Here are a couple mediocre starting hands that caught part of the flop in a party $50 MTT NL tourney. I was uncomfortable playing these hands and gave up big pots. The first hand was bottom two...

Re: AA after the flop
Thanks guys. I will look to push harder on the re-raise next time. I was definitely playing with fire there. Last week I was thinking about how I hadn't had AA cracked in a tourney for a long...

AA after the flop
I played two MTTs at Party last night and busted out in each one with AA UTG.
In the 2nd tourney I got the action I was looking for but just got unlucky. There were 45 players left out of 130. I...

Re: Tournament Adjustments

One of the biggest problems I see from otherwise decent players is panic of falling behind in chips. You need to keep a level head and look for the right...

Re: Big tournament wins and taxes...
It doesn't matter if you end up with a net profit or net loss on the year. You still should document your wins and losses for each session. Otherwise, you may find yourself with a larger tax burden...

Re: Fold or call here?
Good call. It sucks to get knocked out. But fold this hand and you are on life support anyways.
You aren't that big of a dog in this situation. The small blind should be going in with anything...

First one to Rebuy?
I finally went and checked out the local casino’s $100 NL single-rebuy tournament. Based on what I had seen on 2+2, I was all set with my $210. I was the 51st person to register (out of 65) and was...

Re: Chip leader w/ AKs vs. all-ins
It seemed to me that the BB had a pair 88 - JJ, or possibly AK or AQ. If the BB had AQ, then button would be in great position to win the larger side pot of 14600. Don't think the BB would make...

Chip leader w/ AKs vs. all-ins
Here’s a decision that I am curious as to how some of the 2+2ers would have played it. It’s from a $200 tournament with about 225 players left. Top 130 get paid, but obviously the real money is...
