Re: Any \"pros\" here ONLY play live?
I only play live these days. I enjoy live poker and don't enjoy online poker (at least not being a multitabler). I moved to Cali so that I could only play live, when I lived in Seattle I felt like...

Re: three hands against one maniac
Hand 1, I raise river (or turn) if I think I can get A high / better Ks to fold with her. Otherwise I call too.

Re: help with blind structure at local B&M...
I would actually prefer the 1/3 in 3-6 B&M game, since there is going to be 6-8 to the flop no matter what the blinds are (in fact I bet that would happen if there were no blinds at all.) So forcing...

Re: Why do many pros preferr Limit poker to NL?
There are a few reasons I prefer to play limit, one is inertia, I play it because I have a lot of experience with it. I want to play no-limit too, my problem right now is that I have to play so many...

Re: To call down or not to call down, part 3
UTG probably doesn't have 98, though it is possible, and that's the draw that got there. So I don't see the T helping him all that much. Ax of diamond is certainly a possibility.

Re: who has insurance?
Yes definately, if anything else, you'll get worse medical care if you do come down with some kind of major illness and don't have insurance, and it could mean the difference between life and death. ...

It wouldn't surprise me if they weren't intentionally distributing players into random bands and giving them better/worse offers based on that, so they can test the effectiveness of various offers. ...

Re: 80/160 AK hand vs Tommy, missed some betst?
....but he's good at game selection, so if I see a table with Tommy and a bunch of people I don't know real well, I'm going to assume that's a fine game, and bankroll willing jump into it.

Re: Tournament vs Cash Game

Re: 40 80 bottom set
I want one more person in before I make the preflop call, I don't think it is all that close, you need to make up around 5BB in implieds, and you can still lose with a set.

Re: checking along w/ Tommy Angelo
I was willing to play tough and agressive, it was just that I put him on a range of AK/AA-TT at first, and I didn't feel I could push him off KK or QQ. So betting doesn't seem to do any good. If I...

Re: 50/100 Blind play
I'm not sure I raise preflop, because we know he is going to 3-bet because he is a LAG, and we are playing a below average hand out of position for three bets.

Although in that cardroom, if I knew you were a 20-40 regular, and didn't know anything else about you, I would probably assume you were a worse player, or at least more crazy/maniacal. ...
