Re: Big Stacks are Limping...

I would feel more comfortable with one limper obviously, and this is definitely at the extreme low end of my pushing range, but you don't have a whole lot of time 5 handed with 6 BBs.

Has anyone...

Re: Calling vs. Raising

I tend to call more with low - middle pocket pairs, especially if I act in front of the raiser. I like to take advantage of the set value when I hit and I let him shove more chips.

Re: The Official $10+1 NLHE Sit and Go study group thread

I'm in. Started playing the 5.5's at PS and moved up to the 11's about 2 months ago.

Re: PP to stars transition (NC)

I play mainly on Stars, just because that's where I've started and I've only made a few forays over to Party.

IMO - the very fact that you have more chips means that solid poker will get you much...

Re: OT: Enough of the \"going for first/third\" crap

I agree, just smile and let them do it. In most cases, they're passing up opportunities that by extension help you and the rest of the players at the table. What's -EV for them has to +EV for...

Re: $11\'s Call shorty w/ AQs L3 (I have a read)

Call.

I don't put much stock in what he pushed with as shorty as it relates to this hand. Had he made a previous 3xBB raise with nothing, then I'd pay more attention to that. His previous pushes...

Re: Quick question

Great, thanks.

To follow that, is there a threshold of M where pushing becomes the play rather than ?xBB raises?

I'm approaching this from a SNG(my normal realm) mindset. I'm sure I can search...

Quick question

Can someone point me in the direction of a post that explains the "M" concept I keep seeing mentioned?

I'd search for it, but do you know how hard a search for a single letter would be?

Thanks.

Re: Heads Up Woes

I like to call from the SB with any two cards capable of making a straight. I've got position on him post flop and more often than not, I can pick up the pot, even when I miss. I'll raise with any...

Would this reasoning change if he were playing at Pokerstars with their bigger starting stacks?

Re: College Saturday YTD 4-0 (+4 units)..

Looks like you only disagree on BC @BYU.

That was a toss up for me. I like giving altitude some importance when an east coast team has to travel cross country.

Re: cfb..fri plays..4-2-0 ytd..$$

I've got AZ +7. Utah loses their head coach, their star QB and face the second year team under Stoops. I look for Stoops to make a statement vs the Utes, but I think Utah squeaks it out at home.
