Re: I\'m a brat at the table

Re: Is checking out \"unethical\"?

Re: really weird AJ hand 3/6
I find it amusing that when someone posts without reads on the players in the pot they are trashed for not having reads, and then when someone does have a read and acts on it, they also get trashed. ...

Re: The perfect fish (LC)
Reading this I just had to share this hand. I notice this one guy at the table who is seeing the flop 100% of the time, no joke. I figure I want to isolate him quickly before he runs out of chips....

Re: Correct play or a waste of time?
