Re: Antonio Esfandiari exclusively WPT?

I definitely agree that he's a very good tournament player, although I think that the whole rocks and rings garbage really detracts from him as a poker player and makes him more a show-man, but...

Re: Antonio Esfandiari exclusively WPT?

No I mean obviously he's not guaranteed to make WSOP final tables beacuse he makes WPT final tables, but I mean does he play any WSOP events?

Antonio Esfandiari exclusively WPT?

I haven't seen "the magician" on any of the WSOP broadcasts this year and so far I haven't seen or heard anything about him in the Main Event. Does he only play WPT events? I see him all the time at...

I was thinking of this just now and I wanted to get some opinions from y'all.

Re: I am in a $50,000 tournament online tonight, is this the right strat

Eh, I'm not an expert on these tournaments but playing TAG poker doesn't necessarily mean limiting yourself to these few hands. Expand your hands-played when you're in position, and try to mix it up....

Re: ($27) Yicky KK hand

Folds in disgust. Chances are he hit a flush, or at least that's my read. Maybe Ax /images/graemlins/diamond.gif or a set.

Re: Trying to get most from big hands

Wrong forum.

You'll get better feedback in the 1TT forum then here.

Did I make the right laydown?

Game is 200 NL. Hero has about 90 and us UTG+1. UTG is a pretty tigh player, was shortstacked for most of the time I was at the table so I didn't really get a great read on his play.

Hero is...

Standard Fold?

CO has ~500
Button has ~100
BB has ~45

Table has a full 10, CO is fairly aggressive, Button is apparently good friends with CO and is a pretty straightforward player, and BB is a little tricky...

What\'s the ruling here?

Action is post-flop. Player 1 bets. Player 2 calls. Player 3 pushes all of his chips into the middle (only about twice the original bet) but does not say raise or all-in. He simply pushes his chips...

Re: KK on the button. Yes, I tuck....

So, I was going to wait for my 100th post to be something exciting, but I guess I'll comment here.

My guess is that he had at best AK or JJ because he checked through and only bet 11 on the river....

Re: Aces played poorly [100nl 6max party]

You have to raise pre-flop to at least 4, if not 5, and since it's NL100, probably even 6.

What I don't like at all was the size of your flop raise. You have to raise it to 8 or 10, beause he's...

Re: **SEMI OFFICIAL WCOOP EVENT #4

It's because it's 6-max; final table = final 6, so 7th-12th is final two tables. The big jump makes sense.

Re: Re-Raising Pre-Flop

Really. What about full ring rather than 6-max. Does a lot change, in your opinion?

Re-Raising Pre-Flop

There aren't any real examples here or hands to use as demonstrations, but I'd like to get some opinions on this. Assume that the game is a 200NL game, and the original raise is to 10 straight.

One of the funniest moments I\'ve ever witnessed in poker history

Let me give you the boring background first.

This event took place at one of our home games. The person directly involved in the incident is a decent player; not great, but not bad either....

Re: 2+2er yahtzem in round of 16 (nt)

Yeah, hell of a play is probably too much, but it was a pretty good play nonetheless. He hesitated for a little bit before re-raising all-in, so he must have been absolutely sure of his read that his...

Re: 2+2er yahtzem in round of 16 (nt)

Hell of a play- facing a raise and then another raise, he had the presence of mind to know that his TT was good enough, and then when that set hit it was all but over. Good stuff.

Re: To pair and flush-draw against a reraise..

I don't like the push, really. To call your pre-flop raise he has to have AT LEAST AQ and clearly better. And while I don't know if a small pocket pair like 55 is great for calling a raise with, he...

Agreed- I've never seen a darkcheck mean anything in a live game. Usually, after someone checks in the dark, someone at the table will glare at them as if to say "and you accomplished what by doing...
