Re: Mobile Poker
I bought a supported phone specifically for pokerroom mobile poker, and downloaded the client. I can play it for play money against computer opponents and it works fine, but I can't get my phone to...

Re: WtSD <30
I'm under 30 for the last 10K hands, but I'm running worse than I ever have. Of course, this is on the heels of running great for 30K hands so it's expected...still frustrating as hell. Variance is...

Re: Battle of the blinds: TT
Did you consider 3-betting the flop? Couldn't he be raising two clubs? I think my hand is still best and 3-bet.
If he doesn't cap, I'll lead the turn as well. If he raises my turn bet then, I...

Re: basics: opening A2o in SB
Completing with A2o is very, very weak. IMO, it is a 99% raise hand - the 1% of the time I wouldn't raise would be if a very, very tough aggressive player was in the BB and I felt like I was going...

Re: weak?
Preflop good.
I hate the flop bet. You're just asking to get raised by donking that flop with an A and two hearts. I don't think it's a good idea to donk into preflop raisers when an A hits the...

Re: 10/20 6max: a hand I didn\'t like - KQo
Did you consider raising the flop? Sometimes I'll do this to knock the BB out, and represent a big hand. MP's flop bet to me means nothing - he's probably putting you on AK and "knows" that the...

Re: FairTax potential effects on gambling
Absolutely, positively in favor of the fair tax. Bleeding heart liberals will cry that it negatively impacts the poor and benefits the rich, but if you listen (or read) the logical arguments for the...

Re: Meet My Two New Favorite Players (LC)
I hate kurosh's line. If you're going to flop top pair out of the BB with 10-8 off and then check-call-check-check-fold, just save yourself 2 SB's and fold preflop. I have no problem with your call...

Re: Turn decision vs. loose-passive
Thanks for the relpy Surf.
I looked at the board, tried to figure out what he would 3-bet with, and figured I was down to 3 clean outs - the 3 10's not diamond. I also thought I could be already...

Turn decision vs. loose-passive
Villian in this hand is super-loose, very passive - 71/0/.5. I haven't seen him 3-bet at all.

Re: 10/20 6max: slowing down - AQo
What about the button's 3-bet with A10off? His stats seem too tight to me to 3-bet A10off, unless he has Surf pegged as too loose, too aggressive preflop maybe a 35/25 or something. Depending on...

I think I'm calling down too much when it's fairly obvious I'm beat, so I'm trying to find places to fold instead of the default "get to showdown cheap" line. Maybe this hand is standard, boring...

Re: Why will you never go pro?
Never is a really long time so I can't say never. But for the time being my reasons for not going pro are close to roundhouse's reasons:
1) I have a great job with great benefits.
2) My...
