Re: LAG experiment

Obviously, but there's always that maniac that people think somehow are making money in the long run. Just try it and you'll prove to yourself it's not possible.

LAG experiment

If you wish to learn the value of position, try an experiment where you raise with any two in an unraised pot preflop.

Keep firing?

Is it dumb to keep betting like this with flopped TPTK into someone who just keeps on quickly calling? If the betting's fine, I betting too much, too little, or am I OK?

thanks,

Re: 2 pair hit flop... fast play fails....

Just a thought: putting the result in white doesn't help when you put in the suit images. All we need to see are the spades to know he had a flush, heh.

Re: Party stock almost half off hi --- when to buy??

I'd give it a while. Let all the IPO speculators get out, then scoop it up at the bottom.

Re: Did I do right PreFlop??

Re: How much do you call with this J5 full house?

I'm guessing SB had A5, and technically this wasn't a bad beat post because Hero was behind the whole way.

Re: First NL session, 87o from BB (NL 100)

Fold preflop.

This is hard because you have no kicker.

Edit: didn't notice the straight possibilites. I still think it's a fold preflop though, heh.
