Re: When to take breaks when playing online?
I take a 5 min break from the screen every hour or so, just because I have bad eyes. I do this at work too, so it's not just a poker thing. I use the time to get a coffee and clear my head a bit, I...

Re: Frustrated!

I second that. You should have stayed at .25/50 a bit longer, unless you were willing to grab a bonus at a different site. And you lost too much. $85 isn't enough to play at .25/.50...

I think you played this fine. He likely has a set (T8 isn't calling a raise preflop I'd hope) but it's possible he has something like TT or 88 and the turn gave him some more outs or...

Re: Pot Equity Guess
