Re: defense against semi-bluff

Re: Turn Decision
I just reread sklansky's TOP "defense of semi-bluff" and it seems he would agree with 3bet/fold lines in this situation. He mentions that just calling is terrible umless the pot is big or you have...

Re: Flip the Cards Over
There should really be a notational distinction between 'correct' play(a la TOP), and the most likely estimate(mle? the 'right' play?) of correct play when there's imperfect information. By taking...

Re: I\'m turning jason into a LAG. The AQo test?
One more thing:
Pokerstove is still chugging away, but when you add in a third person limping with a wide range (40% minus premiums), equity looks like it drops to about 34% preflop. I suppose with...

Re: KQo in the SB.
I like the line, since it only needs to be good >26% of the time to make money. A bet would have opened you up to a turn (semi)bluff, but it only has to be good > 18%. Also you're likely to get...
