Re: POLL---Who is more Reasonable
So, an example of a prophesy fulfilled is the parting of the seas?
And, there is independent evidence that this occurred?
Or maybe more recent prophesies such as the Christ's rising, for which we...

Re: ($11) level 2 AQ utg
TPTK on the flop - pot size bet, fold to raise.
Wouldn't raise that much UTG with AQo - if you'd raised to 60 or 90 preflop then you wouldn't be looking at such a large pot sized bet now. Plus, a...

Re: Is my blind play a leak? 5$+.50 SNG
On Party level 1 I'm completing with pretty much any 2, if there's no more than 2 limpers ahead of me, and then folding to any raise from BB.
I do this particularly on Party because you start with...

Re: One sentence on Thought
Actually, taking a theory as true until it is disproved forms the very basis of science. In its strictest sense science admits to everything that has not been disproved.
Naturally, scientists would...

Re: Most money of AA postflopp
Obvious check situation from UTG.
You've led out with 4xBB, so let them think it was KK or QQ. A check will leave the door open to anyone playing a J to bet hard.
Min-raise any small bet that's...

Re: Overpair on paired board?
What'd villain do on the turn? (He was first to act)
I'd be inclined to call anything up to about 1/2 pot - less is weakness on his part. More is worrying.

Re: How was the play and Lay this down?
Don't see any choice but to lay it down.
You've got to put him on JJ - KK or AK. Only hand you're beating is AK.
Throw them away and count yourself lucky that he didn't have the wile to draw you in...

Re: Difficult play (for me)
He was raising a lot.
A couple of hands earlier he called down big(ish) bets to fill a straight on the river with 45o in the pocket.

Difficult play (for me)
From memory ...
Party $6, level 3: t25/t50, 8 handed
Hero (~t750) is UTG+2 with A/images/graemlins/diamond.gifJ/images/graemlins/diamond.gif
Villain (~t1250) is SB (has been quite lag)

Re: 88 lvl 5 with 11bbs, was this push wrong?
I'm probably way wrong, but I'm not thrilled about mid-pairs in this position.
My line would be raise to 300, and then check it down postflop looking for the set, folding to strength.
Preflop...

It seems to me that the only solution is to define 'free' within the context of determinism.
You need to be convinced that a person behaving 'freely' is completely deterministic.
In a sense, this...

Re: Whats your line here? party 22
Its a straight gamble, depending on your table image. SB and BB would need something good to call - but either could put you on a steal.
Personally, I usually try to steal only if I've got something...
