AJ sooooted kill - I made worst possible decision
This hand has been bothering me for two days. I think I know now what I should have done, but I want some opinions.
B&M 4-8, it's a kill pot so we're playing 8-16 this round. Killer has won 4 pots...

Re: Music while playing in B&M
Don't know how other people do it. It distracts me.
And it can be annoying when the dealer has to loudly repeat things to the ipod wearer. Not a problem if the ipoder is paying attention, but my...

Re: Is this typical for Live Play?
Northern Quest Casino near the Spokane airport has a nice poker room. Lots of good games.
There's also a couple of smaller card rooms in town, but I haven't played at them.

Re: Live Play - Is this typical?
Welcome to live play. This is normal. If anything, I've been noticing players getting more passive. Raise with AA, KK, QQ? Nah. AK? It never wins.
Part of this is the belief that "Aces never win"...

Re: hands/hour with auto shuffler
Yeah, what the previous reply said. 40-45 an hour. I've taken the trouble of keeping track a few times. And these are games with 5+ players seeing the flop.

Re: Aggression problems and the drunk -- River
Thanks for the comments, seems like I played it ok so far.
I bet the turn and get check-raised. D'oh!
I'm not liking my hand so much any more, but I call, really wanting a K or Q on the river....

Aggression problems and the drunk
B&M 4-8. A drunk drinking bourbon and cokes has killed the last 5 pots so we've been playing 8-16 instead of 4-8. Drunk is in fact playing any two cards, because as the killer he has to post $8...

Re: Check up on a river fold.
Flop: I like to check-raise here. Bad idea?
River - several good reasons to fold. Calling-station suddenly turns into aggressor, weak-tight button wakes up and raises, And I hate overcalling!

Re: Rare spot to call 2 cold?
Here's my math:
Method one:
There are 45/47 * 44/46 ways to not get a K on the turn or river. This is 1980/2162. Therefore, there are

Live 4-8, very very loose players. Big pots.
I'm SB. BB is tight agressive 2+2er, UTG is new to the table (his 6-12 game broke and he's waiting for 10-20) but has been in to see most flops since he...

Re: tightest game ever!
[ QUOTE ]
Only 2 - 3 seeing the flop.
[/ QUOTE ]
Not to mention that it was folded around to the blinds frequently. Sometimes 3 or 4 hands in a row. It was amazing.

Re: sults
Hand 1:
I folded. No other spade fell and the guy to my left won with two pair, 7's and 8's. I hung my head in shame.
Hand 2: I folded. Turn and river brought no card higher than my eights....
