Re: Maybe worst beat I\'ve ever seen

Agreed its not the worst ever, but pretty sure its the worst I've ever seen first hand in 100K+ hands. Plus the lack of action and lack of comments after was amazing.

Maybe worst beat I\'ve ever seen

Weirdest part was the lack of action. Guy with the losing hands' only comment was "you got lucky". Wow. I would have snapped.

Re: Collusion question

Flashing hole cards is only one of the worst possible cases of collusion. There are plenty of others including whatever betting scheme you guys used. Its cheating plain and simple.

Re: Whats with all the limp reraising ?

Big pockets do not go up in value with more players. They go down in value. They are meant to be played against few opponents, not many. Drawing hands are meant to be played in multi way pots.

I agree with Evan almost completely. I will complete if there are 2 limpers or less. If there are more than that and an ace flops you can be almost sure you are dominated. If its folded to me, its...

Re: Poker Tracker

Where can I find gametime ? Also, how much machine do I need to have to run PT with and without GT ? I currently have a p3 800 with 128M. Does OS matter ? I'm currently running 98.

Re: Review of Lee Jones\'s Winning Low Limit Hold \'Em

The Lee Jones book was the first I ever read as a newbie. It will get you going in the right direction. A great place to start. When you're comfortable with that, read SSH.
