Re: limit O8 - betting top two pair or a set on the turn (or not)

Very nice post. I think I'd intuited some of this, but had never seen it worked it out as you have done. A lot of my pre-river betting is done in consideration of these river decisions: something...

Re: 7/8b hand 7

This is an interesting one. What was your thinking on 3rd, 4th and 5th streets? How long had you been at the table? Did you have good reads on your opponents?
