Re: I\'m a brat at the table

I find it amusing that the response you got for your post proves the point of the post.

I don't understand why so many...

Scary table talk from a losing player

First off, I understand that poker is a game of winners and losers, and for the winners to make the kind of money they do, there must be losers donating all that money.

I also understand that not...

Re: Is checking out \"unethical\"?

I never found it unethical when a few players at my local cardroom throw their hand away instead of checking. I find it hilarious when they do it on a constant basis.

Re: Gambloor needs some perspective from non-donks

One of the best bits of advice I've seen on this site is this:

Don't move up in limits just because you have the money to do so.

Higher limits often take a different approach to beat. The...

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: How can I seem relaxed after monster flops?

The reason you feel nervous and excited is the anticipation of the expected rewards of winning the hand. Rewards like the fame of adoring fans, the prestige in the eyes of your peers, the lust of...

Re: WHAT IS THE STUPIDIEST THING SOMEONE HAS SAID TO YOU WHILE PLAYING?

I personally find it stupid to habitually use the word "gay" to mean "stupid, lame, or anything unwanted."

Re: Determining if Im getting unlucky or outplayed.

Let me respond to a few points, hopefully with some useful advice.

Having big pairs be a money loser over thousands of hands is a leak. Some of those losses must be coming when you are behind on...

Adjustment for California Grand blind structure

The closest card room to me has an odd blind structure for the Texas Hold'em limit $3/$6 game. The big blind is $3, which is normal. The small blind is $2, which is not surprising. What's odd is...

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?

What I think is funny is that he thought his bet was OK, but your raise was not.

Re: A little math help?
