Re: KQs making two pair.

Re: 5/10 - fold KK pre-flop?
No read at all?

Re: Horrible, Horrible River Check - Help?
I have a few problems with this hand...

EV Question
This is a newbie sort of question, but I do have to ask it, as I'm a newbie. I've really only started taking Poker seriously for about a year.
What is EV, and how do you calculate it? I've seen...

Re: AK vs. JJ
"It's because with AK, you almost always have to make that mandatory preflop bet even when you don't hit."

Re: Shutting up the Table Coach
Let the player believe you are sincerely sorry for taking the pot from him/her with something like:
"Oh man... I totally misread you there..."

Re: Did I misplay here?
Can you explain a little further here?

Re: $1/2 NL at the Tropicana - Show Your Bluffs?
My rule of thumb has always been, only show them if you absolutely have to. If you must (to prove that you won the hand), then you must... but otherwise don't bother.

Re: Did I misplay here?
The buy-in does kinda suck, and there's been a lot of talk about getting the Card room to increase it...
