Re: are re-buy tournaments as dumb as they seem to me?

Your logic isn't quite right, and I think that a quick explantion is needed.
A site provides let's say a $10R with a garauntee of $20k, that means they figure that enough players will play and...

Re: ***Official Party 40K Guaranteed***

So the chip leader started going down in flames, and created another huge stack, who was raising liberally, I moved in over the top of one of his raises with JJ, certain I was 70/30 only to be caught...

Re: ***Official Party 40K Guaranteed***

I'm in, table 27, have the tourney chip leader on my left and he is terrible, called all in with bottom pair and rivered a straight to take down a monster pot.

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

This further shows how awesome position is, a lead bluff isn't nearly as strong as a check-raise bluff, but if you go for the check raise bluff after investing a decent amount on the turn, you are...

Re: How bad is this?

Why not lead this flop, 600-900 seems about right, it could be somewhat of a blocking bet, but it could take down the pot right here, and if he wants to raise he is going to bet quite a bit(and if he...

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

He has only 30 chips invested in the pot on the turn, and he is facing a half pot bet(not terribly weak), and with the check on the river he is allowing his opponent to check behind with a medium...

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

I would say MLG bluffs at this more than you think with a missed draw, but I think his draw needs to be big to call that turn bet, something like KQc,KJc,Axh, T9s,T8s, something that either gives him...

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

That and because I think their is a much higher probability that you would play KQ this way rather than some random drawing hand. I don't see you calling 150 for a 310 chip pot with 96h, KQc gives...

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

And the reason he may call is because you have played this hand like a busted flush draw, and he also only has to call 700 chips for a 2000 chip pot. So I think he could call with QT, Q9, why he...

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

KJ is a stretch, but for some reason KQ seems almost right to me, as I could see somebody playing QT very similar to this and so you may get a crying call from him on the river, with second pair, and...

Re: Hand Reading, PP style

I haven't read any replies yet, I wanted to crack at this and then read them. I think it would be easiest to go over your hands every street.

Preflop - Any 2 cards, minraise so you were getting...

My coding experience with Visual Basic is very limited, so it would be great if you got it going using that, C seems like a hack, perl would be very pretty, but like I said I haven't used string...

Speaking of which, it would be really easy to do in any program, but typically perl is the "language of choice" to manipulate strings. I could try to hack out a C program if you like, since C is the...

Sounds fairly simple with a perl program to extract the data, only thing is I have never tried to extract data, then use another program to analyze the data. If i grabbed another perl book(dunno...

Re: silly JJ

I am making it 1200 to go, if somebody pushes behind you, you go with their image, if they seem even a bit tight, fold, if the Chipleader pushes I go completely on my instinct. If we take a flop, I...

Once I get to the final table, I usually try to figure out how many chips are in play and how big the blinds are.
So let's say there were 2200 entries on a party multi, so there are 2.2 million...
