Re: Who is the most famous person you seen play poker at a casino?

I played 5-5 pot limit hold em with Alex Rodriguez, when the Yankees were in the town against the Brewers, I picked up pocket Kings potted a bunch of limpers, and only A-rod and I saw the flop. The...

Re: x post---anyone know anything about if/when the BIG GAME will resume?

It's off... In one of Barry Shulman's blogs he stated that it had fallen through on Andy Beal's side, and I believe the major issues were Andy's not wanting to come to Vegas, and his wanting all...

Re: Stu Ungers most famous poker read. This is ridiculous.

Yeah, I actually looked for it, because I believe Paul Phillips said it a bit more emphatically than Greenstein, but I couldn't find it. Nonetheless, I think it's safe to say that many respected...

I don't put villain on tens. Though I doubt he reraises, I also doubt he hesitates to call with a pocket pair that high. It's possible that he may hesitate because he hates the price that...

Re: KK HU OOP, call down or fold?

Frank, for the first time in my life, I'm actually hoping someone here is a troll. Keep in mind, he's a little bit passive, meaning his raise indicates something, but he's also pretty solid and...

KK HU OOP, call down or fold?

The following hand took place last night at Potawatomi's 5/10 game. The full kill is in effect and the villain in this hand is UTG+1 and in the kill blind. He seems to be slightly looser and more...

Re: How does Kill affect strategy?

Perhaps the most important adjustment, is getting ready to here the words "I did (insert incorrect play) because it was a kill" also "I had to protect the leg-up." For the solid player the most...

I'm suddenly tired, and I don't really feel like bumping this thread in the morning, because the hand isn't super-interesting. Anyway, both BB and UTG folded, UTG+1 calls, I check behind on the...

Re: Live 5/10 KQs, right idea or chip spewing?

I think it really is the case that I only get 3-bet when someone has at least a straight, except by the donk... BB is weak tight, and UTG+1 frequently stops with a naked 9 right here (I've played...

Live 5/10 KQs, right idea or chip spewing?

Live 10-handed 5/10 at Potawatomi. Game is super-loose and pretty passive, with hints of aggressiveness postflop. I'm fairly new, but I haven't really won a pot so I'm a litte stuck. UTG in this...

New to NL, AKo, push or fold?

I typicallly play live limit poker, generally 5/10 and 10/20, but yesterday I was sort of feeling like playing a little NL. My local casino (Potawatomi) spreads a $3/$5 that's basically a...

Re: Heading to Chicago this weekend

If you're going to be in SE Wisconsin, I'd probably suggest just playing at potawatomi. The room is small (10 tables), but the drive will be much shorter (should be under an hour from just about...

Re: Isolation cap?

What position you are in preflop matters. If maniac was UTG, LAG was UTG+1 and you were next, I'd fold every time. If I were on the button I'd probably cap. In a situation like this, there is so...

Re: Is this prop bet +EV?

The fact that you aren't actually taking two 2's and the Ac and Kc out of the deck is what makes you a dog here. Do you see why?

Re: Potawatomi NL?

The pot used to spread its NL on Sunday and run it until it broke. The blinds are 3/5 and with a min/max of $200, but you can rebuy $200 anytime you go under $200 so it's really a max of $399. They...

Re: What would you do in this situation? (Mild collusion in a game)
