Re: Turn Poker Tracker Off.
I always have PT running.
That being said, I do it to make sure that the auto-requester and importer are running. I almost never check the stats once I'm playing.
Why? I multi-table and...

Re: Looking for Ratings on Books
Thanks for all of the advice. I've read both Warren and Cappelletti's books, found the first one a bit stupid and the second a bit muddled. I did some web research and looked up the Hutchison point...

Re: Looking for Ratings on Books
That's the one! Thanks.
Also, I'm looking for good books on Omaha/8. Any ideas would be good, but I'm especially interested on anything applying at micro-limits, similar to SSHE.

Looking for Ratings on Books
I remember stumbling across a post (or page) somewhere that had ratings and mini-reviews of various poker books. I want to say that the reviews were Mason's, and that I saw it on the 2+2 site, but I...

Re: Just saw the craziest thing (low content)

Re: How many bets would you go?
To win, he needs to hold KsQs. You know seven of the cards, so he has a 45*44/2 = 889:1 chance of having the winning hand. Every additional dollar bet is +EV (and by quite a large margin), so the...

Re: TPWK vs PFR out of position MW
If both limps stay in the pot after a raise, raise again to gain PE. After all, you have two chances to catch five outs (OK, maybe 4 for the potential K[A-T] your opponent has :-)). If both limps...

Re: Flopping around on the Button
Fold the flop. You have a max of 5 outs (3 A's + maybe one for the 10, BDFD and BDSD are both ~ 1/2 out (maybe)), giving you a 1 to 10 chance to win and only a 1 to 8 payoff. And implied odds don't...

Re: Stop-n-go\'ed 3 times
Why did you call the river instead of raising? The only hand you're losing to is JT and, if he has it, you'll know when he re-raises. Plus, it's going to be a rare player savvy enough at this limit...

I really only have 5 other outs besides the diamonds (you're counting the Kd twice, otherwise). If I'm re-raised, I either put more money in or I fold. And I really can't put in more money, at...

Re: Big draws in the SB and 5-6 players
I'd have bet the turn. Only a 46 beats you. When you're ahead, bet. It usually gets you more than fancy play. Plus, with this hand, betting the turn might make it look like you have something...

Re: Bet the turn?
The choice is between betting and trying for a check raise, because both your odds and PE are right. Three other players in the pot are enticing for the CR and, though they know you have big cards...

My assumption is that villian is going for a check-raise on the turn, because the check-raise on the flop seems to indicate he has an AA. The bet on the turn would be better only because, when he...
