Re: Site where cards run fairly even?

Re: Site where cards run fairly even?

Re: SSHE p.148: Continuing with marginal hands

Re: SSHE p.148: Continuing with marginal hands
RAKE!!!!! RAKE!!!!!!
I forgot to even think about rake effects here.
I wonder if anyone ever figured out the actual EV/hand for this example. It may be ones of those examples where theoretically...

Re: SSHE p.148: Continuing with marginal hands

Re: SSHE p.148: Continuing with marginal hands
This is a bit after the fact, but I was rereading SSHE myself and wondering about this hand. I ran it through pokerstove vs 5 random hands and various plausible situations, and in all cases except...

Re: A common occurence at all levels
Yes, but they are even more likely to have nothing,
Yesterday I had pocket aces and there was a 4 straight and a possible flush on board at the river. Because I knew my opponent I called and won a...

Re: kk with a on board
nothin you could do about either one, in hand 1 the guy flopped a set, and in the second calling a raise in the small blind w a suited ace isn't a bad play.
