Our home poker tourney. Blinds are t500-1000, I'm the big blind.

I'v got...

Re: Poker table shapes?
I definitely prefer round or octagon since it allows all players to have a reasonable view of all the other players. Being on the flat side of a long table sucks, since you can't really see the...

Re: Proper Shuffling and ethics
I riffle 3 or 4 times, then do a box shuffle (becuase my riffle technique flashes the bottom card to observant players). I offer the cut to the player to my right.
Our game is pretty casual. We...

Re: What do you think of 100xBB structure
The problem with starting with a small stack in relation to the blinds is that it makes the game more dependant on luck. If you take it to the extreme (1bb), it's clearly a game of luck since you're...

Why bother with any physical conversion? I just picked up a cheap fridge and got standard keg tap parts online (CO2 line/guage, tap, hose, etc.).

Re: Am I overplaying AKo?
Thanks for your feedback. I'm hoping I can learn from this.
Also, duly noted about the use of "raise"...not sure why I put it that way.

Am I overplaying AKo?
This starting hand bit me in the butt three times last night. I'm thinking I'm taking it too far. It was a live NL MTT, start with 40BB which increase every 20 minutes. I felt like I had zero room...

I'd have pushed pre-flop too.
You're down to less than 7bb, you gotta make your move while you still have enough chips to make 'em think about it. Wait longer and your push is an insta-call for...
