The abbreviated hand was: I was nearly on the bubble in a MTT with 88...

Re: SQL Data Model for Hand History?
Yeah I'm told it keeps them in an Access database. That's sort of a poor man's version of an SQL database. I would be curious to see the data model for that. If I could be consistent with it without...

SQL Data Model for Hand History?
I want to store my hand histories in a database but surely I'm not the first person to have thought of this? Is there some standard data model people use for storing hand histories in SQL databases?...

Re: Using pot odds in NL
Moreover you have to include the chance the other guy will fold. If you think he's on a marginal hand (like playing high pair when the board is all low cards -- any high card could be a scare card...

Re: ITM Hand
I don't really get it. If it were heads-up just you and him with those stacks and these blinds, would you push with 83o? If you're going to push with 83o I guess that means you'll just push any two...

Re: Friend Destroying $11s, should he move up?
I don't think 50% TM is unreasonable for $11 tables. Hell, when I don't make blunders *I* get about 50% ITM at them. And I'm pretty mediocre. I've only been playing for about a month.

Re: Complicated three-way hand
Sorry for the confusion, what actually happened: (after UTG bet 300 and I raised to 500) BB raised to 700 (550 over his 150 blind).

The convertor doesn't handle pokerroom.com tournament hands so I'll do my best here.

In my limited experience it seems people often let me see the turn and then get aggressive and push me off the pot before the river. Therefore based on my...
