Re: Streaks
If the downstreak is affecting your play, you'd do well to take some time off.
I recently went through a really bad down streak that lasted 4 weeks and decided to just not play for a week to get...

Re: Multi-tabling Stud8
You lose an edge, yes, but you make it up in quantity of hands.
I regularly play 3 tables of stud with the odd game of hold'em on the 4th table. 4 tables of stud is doable, but was giving me a...

Re: Do you make this fold vs Chef?
"Random - what about the effective odds here?"
You definitely have odds to call on 5th. You then have to reevaluate on 6th. For myself, if I blank on 6th, I'm going to call another bet unless...

Re: Do you make this fold vs Chef?
I definitely call here because of the size of the pot.
I'd put Chef on only 2 hands. Pocket As (maybe with the A of hearts) or a flush in 5 (possible, but doubtful). I'd say he has pocket A's...

Re: My week\'s worth of stats
Absolutely! Remember there are lies, damned lies, and PT statistics.
All this talk of minimum sample size and variance is silly.
If I'm running well, I'm a poker genius. If I'm losing, then...

My week\'s worth of stats
Here's my stats for 33s the past week.

Re: A strange 10/20 high hand
I'm guessing Percy had Ax of spades in the hole for A's and 3 spades on 4th.
Since you would most likely not bet your unimproved board on the river, it is doubtful he'd overcall even if he makes...

Is there a \'Laffer Curve\' in multi-tabling?
Imagine if you plotted the number of tables on the horizontal axis and income/hour on the vertical axis.
While the exact shape and inflection point would vary from player to player, I think the...

Re: Done with stud....
Switch back to 8-man tables, tighten up, and play through the downswing.
Variance is a bitch, patience is everything.
If it bothering you to that degree, take a break from gambling, period,...

Re: Hows this hand v. trips
Hand 1, nothing you can do, just bad luck.
Hand 2, raise 3rd and 4th. And yes, fold 7th when it is 2 more bets back to you.
Here's some commiseration if you want:
7 Card Stud High ($3/$6),...

Bizarre bet of the night
Here's one for the conspiracy theorists out there. Ever run into those players who fearlessly bet their hands like they know what card is coming next?
I know there are a lot of bad players out...

Re: Avoiding Traps
Thanks for the comments, guess I'm being a bit too results oriented.
I've been having a rough night where I'm winning tons of tiny pots and losing all the meaningful ones.

Avoiding Traps
Being a trapsetter myself, I'm often on both sides of this. Typically, you raise with a big pair and someone behind you with a higher card merely calls.
You suspect they might be trapping, but...

Re: No content
My condolences. I've had bad streaks myself, but not one as concentrated as that in a single day.
Take a breather, maybe take a few days off then come back and get even when you are raring to go...

Re: Advice on this hand
Maybe pocket Ks and hit trips on 6th street?
I don't mind the aggressive play, even though you are probably betting 2nd best hand. There is no way he is going to raise you unless he makes Ks full...

Re: stud terminalogy
When you have a pair showing, people will say you have an 'open pair' like he had an open pair of kings.
