Re: PP 15/30 88, looking for opinions
I would say there is a 60% plus chance you are beat here.
You need to ask what the co would cold call three bets with and raise the turn with.
I think you can eliminate AA and KK - I find it...

Re: is 40% see the flop tight or loose?
I think this count the blinds - so it means 4 to a flop with blinds - seems average to tight - you can find tables with 50 to 60 seeing the flop at other sites.

Re: Turn Raises -- How do you handle them?
I have called down my fair share of raises and check raises on the turn and have seen about 1% or less of these be bluffs. In fact, I cant remeber the last time it was a bluff with a smallish pot.

Re: Turn Raises -- How do you handle them?
I think you need to specify what limit you are playing - again at 3/6 I think it might be +EV to fold every time except when you have a strong draw.
I would love to here others thoughts

Re: Turn Raises -- How do you handle them?
I am having the same set of questions and issues.
I think its a major leak to just go into call and check mode. I know most posters will say you need to call it down.
1)It depends on the size...

Taj 5/10 vs Borgata 6/12
Anyone who plays in both of these notice a difference.
I found the Taj games way looser. Is this usually the case on the weekends. Or was it just variance in tables.
If the wait were not an...

Re: Where have all the loose games gone?
I would think tables would be tighter after summer is over - many people take vacation in August both in U.S. and Europe - but does not seem to be the case -
I do find 3/6 tigher than 2/4

Re: THE BORGATA
If you are going to play 10/20 or 20/40 - you can play at either Taj or Borgata.
If you play 8 hours on the weekend the Borgata will give you a room for 149 or 159. I think the comps are better at...
