Default Re: PL draw tourney on pokerroom about to start

I've never deposited a dime into PokerRoom (I have an account but have only used it to goof around with play money Chinese poker). If the PL Draw tournaments are going to be a regular thing, I might have to ship some money there.

Oh, IMO playing every pair is too loose for PL Draw. Two pair and low trips are the trickiest hands to play in draw-you got to know when to value bet them, when to check and hope to get a showdown, and when to throw those trips away. Sometimes "tripping up" your low pair is the worst thing that can happen to you. I've busted out of many tourneys overplaying these hands and I usually find that I've made at least one big "Hellmuthian" laydown when I go deep in a PL Draw tourney. You can be a bit looser with flush draws in PL than limit if you've got a table that will pay you off if you hit.
