Re: pocket 8s on the button, standard?
[ QUOTE ]
Again - this is really just semantics. [/ QUOTE ] I totally agree; it is just semantics, and I know you're advocating a raise for the right reasons. But this term gets misused constantly, and new posters like myself can fall into traps if they don't understand that the value of raising for a free card (as defined in TOP) is predicated on the bet size increasing on the next street. As always, thanks for taking the time to respond. |
