God damnit he's CO+2, which makes the call even worse, but I STILL make it. If he's pushing 66+, ATs+, and AJo+, and he's likely pushing more, then it's +0.1%. I do it because I...

Re: How often do you see the same players?
I only just recently started playing Party STTs. I played for a few weeks at the 22s (but only a couple hours a day), and for about a week now at the 33s. I was already seeing "noted" players once...

Re: Does anyone even play the $33s anymore?
I only recently started playing STTs. I've been mostly a no-limit cash game and MTT player over a couple years now. My feeling has been that the MTTs are the best in terms of profitability and a...

Re: Money Etiquette
I'm not anywhere near the level of you guys, and this is certainly a hobby for me and not a job.

Re: Am I a pussy or just being smart?
I play the $100, $200, and occasionally sneak onto a $400 table (which I don't have the bankroll for).
I would observe that the $200 often plays similarly to the $100 -- you can get in some juicy...

Re: QQ in the cutoff
Yep. And, actually, this is what you're looking for as you move through a tournament. You tend to move up either (a) by making moves, or (b) playing back at someone who makes moves on you. You're...

Re: Belterra and other Indiana Riverboat Casinos
Wow, Belterra has poker now. Good to know, since it's the closest thing for us here in Columbus, OH. I stayed at Belterra with my wife one weekend a while back -- very nice facilities. We went off...

Re: Taking it to the Next Level -- Longish Post
I'm quite new to MTTs, so take any of the below with a large grain of salt. But here are a few observations.
