Re: KQ...flop check okay?
*bump*
does anyone disagree with Joo for a good reason?? Is this what we would consider a solid line given his read that the pot turn is adaquate enough to discourage a "play"

2-4 Starting requirements. Too loose?

Is it too loose in a 6-handed game against typical 2-4 opposition who overvalues hands...

Re: 10-20 NL at Bellagio

Re: AA line check. 2-4, 3 flush board
This is a line you could take once in a while against an observant oppenant. On this board, you're either behind, but not way behind, or ahead a lot. So, if hes laggy/tricky enough, I would take the...

Re: Theory Post: On position
For one thing, you don't have to waste bets on Stop and goes and make your transparant when you do so. For instance

Theory Post: On position
I think I understand the advantages of position to a certain extent, but not fully. To me, it means the following:
- it allows you to pick up more small pots
- allows you to stack other players...
