Re: AJs - Live game at Caeser\'s, deep

I'd probably bet out on the turn. I am a bit too aggresive though.

Re: How do you make money in SSNL?

confidence of being better?

Lets say two very similar players sit down and play heads up limit poker against each other. Lets say one of them should on average make .1BB/100 hands off the other. How long would you expect it...
