Re: merits and faults of the blocking bet
FslexcDuck, I like your reasoning a lot, there definately are a lot of situations in which you don't know exactly where you stand, and where a bet can define the hand of your opponent substantially....

Re: NL 5/10...Folding Set And It\'s Not Close

good analysis. This hand was online, so the cards were as well hidden as they could be, discounting a pattern map here and there.
