If I were instead calling 2 cold closing the action, I'd be getting 12.5-2 = 6.25-1. No good if I'm splitting or drawing dead already, but if I'm the only remaining J and can figure at least that one...

Re: Tough Game Theory Problem
The situation you describe involves bluffing. It was my explicit intent to make a simple strategy based only on the actual strength of respective hands, and then expand it to include both betting a...

Re: Slowplay Quad Aces?
If so, then what a relief that I posted this hand here, instead of on a forum where people just take cheap shots at new members.

Re: Slowplay Quad Aces?
