Re: IRS tracking of deposits/cashouts/withdrawals

I didn't say anything about evading taxes. I'm just looking for some objective information about the issue.

After some searching, I couldn't find an answer to this question.

Re: AK unimproved to LP coldcaller

So are you saying bet/fold to a raise the turn?

Re: what\'s optimal here?

Sorry this was 5/10 on Stars.

Well it wouldn't be me capping preflop, I could definitely 3-bet though.
I guess, if he caps and bets the turn, fold.

I'm not convinced this is the best way to play it. In fact, it may even be a horrible way to play it.

Which poker rate would you pick up out of Wynn, Mirage, Bellagio?

Mirage is cheapest buy isn't Wynn really nice? Worth it?

Also, I'm assuming you don't have problems finding a game at Wynn?
