Home Tournament Structure
Aight, some friends at my school are trying to develop a formal poker series and there've been some disagreements over structure. Where it's at now is posted below. I think 50BB for starting stacks...

Re: ATLANTIC GAME IN AN HOUR!!!!
I'm not really in a position to trash talk, but I will share this. When it got down to heads up last week with me and Shilloy, we traded AIM sns. First thing he writes:

Aight, I'm finally doing well enough so that I can buy this puppy and not piss away a significant fraction of my BR (thanks all /images/graemlins/laugh.gif). Anywho, before I buy it, I wondered if...

Re: Two Hands Faced with Calling an All-In
Really? In the first hand, in spite of the odds, I just felt like I wasn't commited and should wait.

Second hand I'm calling as well. In general I ignore timing tells. I also think...

Two Hands Faced with Calling an All-In
Now, I realize the Trout games are MTTs, but I don't wanna have to go next door and make new friends.
Seriously, I played this game against you guys and figure who better to ask then the other...

Re: A Pacific Trout Hand
Yeah, at the time 2000 into a 300 chip pot seemed ugly. In hindsight I think about my 600 raise as "more than a third of my stack" and know my raise was wrong. I do not like my line and would not...

A Pacific Trout Hand
Went out on a sloppy play but it makes me think of a much broader question.
You're medium or shortstacked, but not yet push/folding. You're in LP with a good but not great hand. It's folded to...

Clearly this is going one of those threads where I'll post a stupid opinion and learn something /images/graemlins/smile.gif. Personally, I don't like this at all. OK, SB/BB probably won't join in...

Re: 77 lev4, call and hope for race
Yeah I push. SB+BB will take over 1/3 of you chips in the next orbit, and you're not in good stealing position as they approach (edit: now that I think you may be BB, maybe you will be in decent...

Two Bubble Hands
Last two times I've made it to the top 4 I've shot myself in the foot, which I have no problem with, if I believe my move was OK. Both of these, however, were really shaky for me. I've been trying to...

Re: Following raptors post or just plain stupid?
Yeah, I meant to mention that too. This feels very much like he limped a big pair (JJ+) and now feels stupid and wants people out. I think you'll see QQ and JJ here a lot, again, I think at the $11s...

Re: Following raptors post or just plain stupid?
Do you mean the AJ post? I think TPGK is much more marginal than bottom two pair. Granted, your hand's not invulnerable, but only a set or two-pair beat you. Nobody overbets the pot that badly when...

Re: 88 Later in the Game

there's no reason why you shouldn't have bet this flop. Even if you didn't raise preflop you can still represent at least a Q. Since you didn't bet the flop the BB was able to bet his...

88 Later in the Game
Usually I'm in push/fold mode here. Now that I actually have a few chips, should I limp and play for set value? It's short-handed and 88 is probably the best hand on the table, can I raise? How would...
