Re: should I have dumped this?

It's a Deep Stacks 10+1, only 10 minutes in. I already had the feeling that the pusher was a bit of a maniac, although I had no real reads on the cold caller. I figured he had the As, but didn't...

Re: MUST I call all-in river bet with A-high flush?

So when you went into this hand you were really playing for the nut flush, now you have it and you don't want to play it? If you can get pushed off of the hand you were hoping for on the river, why...

Re: Avg chip stack vs. one of the chip leaders late in MTT

I actually laid it down. I had Harrington on HoldEm 2 in my head saying don't play small pairs with an M around 10-15. The raiser flashed AQs after I folded. Ironically I made the final table...

Re: fun at the $1 tables - (LC)

Maybe if Mr. Happy raised before the flop he would have a right to complain. He was behind on every turn of the card after that.

Playing against the flush draw.

I've got no specific references for this case, but it comes up often in tourneys. Let's just say you're playing a hand with one other person and the flop gives you top pair, top kicker or some other...

Re: When to take those EDGES

Early in the tournament it's better to take only big edges. Blinds are small, chips stacks are pretty even, and the people that will call with anything are still in the tourney. Why leave yourself...

Re: Multi-tabling STTs.

Could've been worse. I could have been multi-tabling razz and 7 card stud. That would have really been a serious miscalculation.
