I'm surprised so many people have your back on this forum. Sometimes you really come off like a prickish egomaniac.

Re: A Heads-Up Hand - Standard?

Cant say I like it, Jeff. I just see myriad problems that could arise by you raising. You're just begging to get three-bet here by a aggressive player with a high heart or a pair. He simply might...

Given how the hand played, it looks like he was rolled up. You caught your best card, and then he re-drew on you.

With a dead Nine and a puny ante, did you give any thought to folding third on the first pass? I'd raise myself, but I've always been an optimist.

20/40 Bad call on third and getting what I deserved.

Thought I'd share a hand that should have hit the muck on third when I was raised, but then a loose call on my end led to disaster. Hell, I dont know though. You tell me how bad it is. Motivation for...

Carlos,

I really appreciate your thoughts in this post due to the fact that you have to be the expert shorthanded stud player on 2+2 if there is one. I guess its a good thing I agree with what you...

Re: Stud Winrate, possible move up?

As an interesting sidenote:

Just so you know the difference in difficulty between the 5-10 and the 10-20/20-40's, there is no player at the latter levels that makes 2BB/100 or more. Of course...

Is it possible that the games are softer now than when you were back at that level, or is 7500 hands just not a large enough sample?

Re: Blumpkin vs. Emery

Fold fourth. Four flushes really suck when they're live like yours is. It also isnt good that Mike bet into you again. I put him on quads. Definitely fold fifth. You have nothing but that lousy four...

Re: 20/40: Semi-bluffing and then calling down

I probably play it the same. There are two things I will point out and that I might try if I know the player fairly well. The first being that against some players you can raise sixth here and be...

Re: $2/$4 hand

Try to check-raise the one seat on fourth. If she dosent bet maybe the 8 will, then raise as well. Since this is 2-4 I'm assuming most arent dropping here on fourth, despite the scare card you...
