Re: $22: Push or wait with an uber short stack

Re: Curtains hand 4: desperate from SB

It's become a very common play in the 215s from a short stack SB. BB is either a moran, or had like a bottom 10% hand or worse (like 62o) that whiffed completely on the flop - that's probably the...

Ugh, I wanted to puke at the indecision here (I get queasy more easily in my old age). TT may not seem too great here at first glance, that's why it pays to think it through/utilize software...

Re: First time I thought about laying down Kings preflop

It's more just a thing that I play 8+ tables at once. I don't have time to do the analysis to make a fancy fold, and I see so much crap in Level 1&2 at even the 215s, that I just go down swinging...

Re: Online pros: How many STTs per day?

No worries, I hope it came through that what I was talking about was more general-oriented, didn't mean to hate on you for any particular reason. You seem to have your head on straight FWIW.

Why not make it interesting and make the mile 12 minutes and a "beer mile." Chug a beer, run a lap, repeat three more times. Measures your level of "fitness" in two categories.
