Was this collusion and what should I have done about it?

Playing 4-8 at the Bellagio this Sunday. I only get down to Vegas a couple times a year so I am a bit out of my element/comfort zone as far as rooms go or I may have acted differently.

There is a...

Re: Empire Royal Flush Club Questions

I received a phone call from Empire that said they were "checking in" with all their Royal Flush members. It was just a voicemail so don't know exactly what they were doing, but I found it funny.

Re: Sucker II

There is a lot I don't know about a lot of things. If asking questions when I don't understand something makes me a sucker, at least I'm a tootsie-pop with a delicious center.

Re: Can this end it?

This sounds like interesting stuff, but I have no clue what most of those terms mean. Can you elaborate?

Re: Baccarat

I don't want to speak for cardcounter0, but he may be reffering to progressive jackpots that are sometimes attached to these games that can get large enough to eliminate the EV.

Re: Right or Wrong Way - Craps?

Craps is a lot more fun if the table is rocking and you are rocking with it. The difference in HA is so insignificnat that it just isn't really worth it to be the "bad guy" at the table. Even...

Re: House advantage on Place Bets

Typo. Hit the 9 instead of the 0 on that one. Good catch.

House advantage on Place Bets

I thought I would look them up and provide them instead of just saying they were bad:

6 or 8: 1.52% HA
5 or 9: 4.09% HA
4 or 10: 6.67% HA

Re: Craps: Explain to me place number bets.

They are pretty lousy bets from a HA point of view (well the 6 & 8 aren't horrible, but still not great). You are better off playing the come line backed by max odds.

Re: AKs in BB.

Ok, here's my reasoning during the hand.

I can see the 3-bet preflop but was trying to disguise my hand a bit to get more action post-flop as lately in the 5/10 my big hands have had no action.

AKs in BB.

UTG is a solid TAG (15 11), but not particularly tricky from what I've seen (which is only about 200 hands though). UTG+1, not much a read but seems fishy.

Re: Mouse to prevent carpal tunnel

Trackballs are great. Switched two year ago because of all the pain in my wrist. Would never go back. Give it a shot. Logitech has some good ones.

Re: Thanks again for your support

Great post Greg and great run. Truly amazing and you are a great ambassador for the game.

You may want to change your occupation in your profile from "patent attorney" to "poker god." Just sayin'.

Re: Empire VIP freerolls

There are two types of VIP freeroll: The WSOP seat and the 10k. I believe the 10k has a normal payout structure for MTT while the WSOP is winner takes it all. Usually around 200-250 people.
