Re: Top two on coordinated flop, facing a raise.
Well, here's the deal: I was the villain and I had KQ off for the nuts on the flop. My cards were pretty easy to play, but his were more tricky. He (the 'hero') called and hit a ten on the river to...

Re: Top two on coordinated flop, facing a raise.
Well, like I said, the calling station gave off a very clear tell that he was folding. I keep wondering-- is top two a through ticket to the river here, if it was heads up? Could you get away from...

Re: National Poker Fixation On The Way Out?
I saw something very surprising when I visited a local bookstore (for New Yorkers-- it's the one on Prince off Mulbury and Lafyette, I think. I don't remember the name, it's not a big chain.) What...

Re: Phil Gordon\'s Little Green Book
I do find the writing style to be somewhat irritating and it is possible to write in first person without using 'I' in every sentence. However, I think the content is pretty good. A nice suppliment...

This is the last one I"ll mention. I promise.
