Re: Strasser in Paris?
A trip report would be great. For what it's worth, I've learned more from you about SNGs than anyone else on this board. Thanks for that.

Re: Poker Novel

After playing at Party for many months and building a comfortable bankroll, I want to cash out for the first time. I want to use iMG-pay and wonder if it's safe, effective, confidential. Also, are...

Re: Longest SNG
Have any of you noticed a trend toward players who intentionally play slow to induce tilt? I mean really slow, using their full time on every street. I thought I noticed it a few weeks ago but it...

Re: Why SitnGo\'s?
A lot of it is personal, but I have found SNGs to be very profitable when compared to ring games. I love the opportunity to punish weaker players, take their chips and best of all make them...

Re: interesting heads up problem
I was getting a lot of seconds before I started using this approach (when the blinds are large). It significantly improved my HU game and evened out my number of first and seconds.

Re: Thanks
I also want to add my thanks. I lurk here quite a bit and have learned a lot, more than I can say. I will try to be a more responsible community member in the future.

Re: Why Oh why?: Or Lost My Nerve
Not cruel at all. Let me have it. I'm trying to become a better player (and have fun) by clarifying my thinking in this type of situation. Thank you, and the others, for your comments.

Re: Why Oh why?: Or Lost My Nerve
Actually, the Asian guy didn't raise MP's raise on the turn. One MP had AK and I didn't see the other guy's cards.
I guess I'm just disappointed with myself for not being decisive at a moment I...

Why Oh why?: Or Lost My Nerve
First time playing B&M 6/12. (I’ve been winning 1.4BB/hr at 3/6 for two months and decided to try moving up. The next level at my club is 6/12.) Table seems fairly tight with solid players. Maybe...

Re: Turn

Re: What\'s your river action?
I think you have to raise. If tricky's really tricky he may reraise with 3 Js (which is what I think he has, with a Q) and you'll have to pay off to see them. I think the turn probably was a failed...

Re: Mixing up one\'s raises
You're right, it was a tilt raise. I let my emotion, irritation, cause a raise pf when it shouldn't have. But if I'd done it with sober calculation, to be random and confuse the others at the...
