Re: How much dead money in WPT Championship?

"1)Phil Hellmuth

Re: Champion of the Authors
David,
Congratulations on your win.
Reasonable question, when it became headsup between you and Doyle and he had you outchipped 10-1, in all fairness, if most any us had your hands against his,...

Re: 20-40 AQo
BK,
I see AQ in this situation, one that is not that bad of a decision either way. Remember, there are few situations you want to do all the time...to become easily readable.
I prefer to lay...

Re: Flush draw
Andy,
If I think the SB will likely call if I 3 bet, then that is what I usually will do. Get the money in now, take the lead and get information.

Re: Sklansky slammers argument skewered!

Re: What he said is unambiguous
Mason,
Actually, the NL HE game is going strong at Lucky Chances, Colma. I was playing the $20-$40HE, on Wed. (Sept.3) and there were two full games and a third with 6-7 players when I cashed out....

Re: Bellagio hand: A9o in BB
"In the first version I concluded that calling with A9o was +EV by about $10 (in a 15-30 game) but now I concede that the EV is close to zero and should be folded."
