Re: Triple Flop Hold\'Em?
So someone loses a bunch of $$ at holdem, blames it on constant suckouts and bad beat, and, instead of learning how to actually play the game, he goes off and designs his own game where suckouts and...

Re: limp-folding preflop
At the Luxor, they have a $4/$8 game with half blinds. So the big blind is $2, but pre-flop raises are in increments of $4. I think there are situations in this game where it may be correct to...

What games does Borgota offer?
I play at the Taj Mahal just about every weekend, but I'm thinking of getting up a little earlier this Saturday to beat the lines at Borgata. I haven't played there since the summer, and I don't...

Re: ATo heads up against a possible steal
Another non-expert opinion:
I'd 3bet the flop. I think AT is pretty strong against a possible steal. Otherwise I think I play it the same. Maybe I bet the turn, depending on the villian.

Re: Suited connectors vs offsuit broadways
The big advantages mid-suited-connectors have over offsuit broadway are
1) their suitedness
2) they make more straights
These two characteristics make them much better in multiway pots, which if...

Re: Another River Question...
I agree with what you wrote. Though you didn't mention my other opponent, and there was no way in hell villian2 would be clever enough to checkraise me. This guy was unbelievable.
Here's what...

Another River Question...
This hand came up last weekend at the Taj. 3/6. Table is generally loose passive. Lots of people calling the flop and folding the turn. Kinda nice. Though I managed to lose AA to 52o AND 53o...

Another river question...
This hand happened a while ago, so I don't remember all the details. Ignore that I probably made some big mistakes before the river. Sorry if this is hard to read.
Live 3/6. I hold QQ in MP. ...

A set with a four flush on the board
Live 3-6 at the Taj. Villian is fairly tight and fairly aggressive (not extreme in either case) and seems generally solid all around.
I'm MP1 with 99. I open raise. Villian (2 seats to my...

Re: Big blind baby flush
Actually, after re-reading, this hand is too dumb to post. I've removed it to spare myself some dignity.

Re: Sngs at Partypoker.
The $5+1 mainly suck because the entry fee kills your RIO by 10%. I also think the difference in players is much greater between $5 vs $10 SNGs than it is at $10 vs $20.

What if there are more players calling you down?
I've been in a lot of situations like this where there aren't really any draws, but I get 3-4 passive players calling me down.
If I'm in...

Re: QQ - stop and go
I 3bet the flop and bet out on the turn. I think with a board like this you need to be careful not to give any free cards.
And I don't like the check raise with two 9's showing. I think it costs...
