Re: binion\'s 1/2 NL hand
I don't se JJ taking too long to call the raise to 30. I don't think 77 or 55 would call your raise to 100.
I think your push is good here, particularly if you aren't sure about your read, since I...

Re: Dealer Tipping @ foxwoods
[ QUOTE ]
What about tipping $1 on your button? Faster play === more $$$. Still gives incentive to the dealer, and they control their own destiny.

Dealer Tipping @ foxwoods
So I tipped the dealer when I was at foxwoods every time I won a substantially raised pot, or if I was taking down a string of a few hands in a row, even if the pots weren't huge. Because this was...

Re: Favorite Lines at the poker table, part 2
At my NLHE game at school, folds around to SB, who raises.
BB: "Are you ahead of big, little?"
SB: "How Big's your big?"
BB: "Well, my big isn't that big... but my little *is* pretty little."...

Re: What\'s my correct turn action?
That turn completes the rainbow and is no threat to your nuts, I think you should definitely play this much slower... I think your read of him on the flop is very reasonable, and your turn bet wasn't...

Re: Is checking the river weak?
The only hands that I might call your raise preflop with that are now beating you would be A9s, 99, 33, 44, and A4s if I'm in uber-loose mode.
In his shoes, if I did flop the set, I might check...

Re: Playing Pocket Pairs
Yeah, there's something about 9s, I don't like seeing 9s in a showdown, generally, so I'll try and buy with 4 or 5xBB from first in or late position if there aren't many callers.

Re: PS 5-10 hand v. BBuddy - A8s
