Groundbreaking New Poker Text

The cover should certainly have AA getting cracked by 32o on the river. Those hands are too good for that board. Nice work though Nagoo!!!

my favorite is "the bluff-call". well done

I need to get better at flopping sets.

Please note- another improved cover is up (scroll up).

Don't forget the important concepts laid out in the hold'em poker for fishy players post awhile back (I can't find the link). They include:

1. The importance of being unsuited. You can make two different flushes with unsuited cards, as opposed to one with suited cards.

2. Low card power. Everyone else has high cards. They'll never expect your 24o. (As previously mentioned)

3. The power of reverse domination. Laugh at all of those AK raisers when you ALWAYS catch your two pair with A5o.

And that's an appropriate cover.

Funny no one has mentioned the importance of playing cards that have been showing up on the board lately. "I had to play the 6-3o because the board flopped 6-6-? like four times tonight."

I know we all could benefit with a chapter titled How To Flop Pairs, and another one titled Why You Should Always Over Play A-?. And lets not forget Why You Should Never Fold Pocket Pairs.

It's not possible to overplay this monster. I suppose there may be something to letting a few suckers in when you have Ax but it should be played as fast as possible and hence is impossible to overplay.

Good point. I love telling people "5s are runnin' tonight". Also works well for flushes "Diamonds are runnin' tonight". [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I had a little too much to drink at the boats one night. I was playin' video poker while I'm waiting for an opening at a table. And I hit trip 7s like three times in an hour. So I go over to the roullette and put $20 on 7. It hit on the second try...LOL. It only works if you're drunk though. Is there a chapter on the right types and qunetities of alcohol to drink because "I always play better when I drink."?

SlOWPLAYING: Be smart, don't raise your sets until the river. With quads, wait even longer. A few hands later should be safe. You don't want to scare everyone off!
