Re: UB $10+$1 AA hand
I think scooping T490 without having to show a hand is not a bad way to go at all, especially since you only start with T1000.
You should always be careful about slowplaying your bullets, as...

How to play against someone who bets at every pot?
Played in a single-table SnG last night and ended up at a table with a guy who bet into every pot. Most of the time, the table would fold to his bets, but he raked quite a few unwanted pots in the...

Re: $10 UB--Raises out of position
I would suggest limping or folding the small pairs in EP, depending on the blinds and passivity of the table.
AK is table and player dependent. If several folks are limping with few raises, a...

Re: Burned by the Sloooooooooow play
Come on out... the more the merrier. I typically find the UB games much softer than Stars (where my ROI is only 20-30%). And the blind structures are much better than Party or Paradise (much less...

Another KK post
Disclaimer: This is another "lost my stack with KK post," so if those drive you crazy, no need to read any further.
1 table SnG at UB, and I'm in 3-4th place of 5 with approximately T1600. The...

Re: How does the online dealing work?
what is the purpose of the burn card anyway?
sorry if this is a dumb question, but I've always wondered. does it have something to do with imperfect shuffling?

Re: What a comeback
I saw a guy playing in a single table SnG at Stars who was reduced to T20 in level 2 (15/30 blinds). When I was busted out in 3rd place, he had built his stack up to about $7k and had 2x as many...

Re: I got trapped! Could I have avoided this?
U have straight and flush possibilities on the board. Two pair is not a strong hand with both of these possibilities and certainly not strong enough to bet the rest of your stack on.
I'd play...

Re: Trapping with AA
I'm going to disagree here. When the betting gets to you, there's already 350 in the pot. Increasing your stack by 350 at this point without a fight would be just fine, and you don't want to let...

Re: NL Tournament Hand
I might have reraised the button all-in before the flop, although with half of his stack already in the pot, he may not have folded regardless. Ultimately, you got him to put all of his chips in the...

Re: Party sit&go\'s
I think most decent players hover between 50-60% win rate. ROI differs greatly depending on whether you play 1 table or 2 table SnGs. I am averaging about a 55% win rate this month and a 27% ROI. ...

Burned by the Sloooooooooow play
1 table SNG at UB, low buy-in, and an environment in which I normally do very well (70-80% ROI). I hit a monster flop earlier and doubled up to approximately T2000. I have added a few chips since...

So what are the good casinos bonuses lately anyway? Any of them that you can play through a corporate firewall? The only one I ever managed to get to work was Riverbelle's flash version.

Re: draws good in tourney?
Kurn,
2 questions:
1) Would you make this call PF given how close to the money you are?
2) Would you raise/reraise once the flop hit or just call him down unless you hit your draw (because...

I would have limped also, although with ATs, you can't feel overly confident if an A hits the flop. Once the flop comes the way it does, I push in here. With short levels and a small stack, you...

This is an excellent point.
