Re: Harrington Example Hand (Vol I)
I believe I explain exactly what he said in the book. Are you referring to my post?

Re: Harrington Example Hand (Vol I)
In a $5 SNG I call.
In the WSOP, I probably choke. My heart says call, but my overactive imaginatiion sees nothing but a set of 9s lying in wait. |

Re: Harrington Example Hand (Vol I)
This site has lots of great stuff on it once you get past the droll Miss Manners posts. Are we poker players or etiquette gurus? The gist of the example is in the original post. And I bet Harrington would be happy to hear his book is being talked about even if it is in slightly butchered form.

Re: Harrington Example Hand (Vol I)
No I was not reffering to you. I think if you are going to quote a book, you should do it verbatim, or at least keep the information. There is a difference between a 5x bbs UTG raise and a 4x bbs UTG raise. The difference is subtle but it definitely changes the hand.
I also meant in general, a lot of people keep missapplying some of the concepts, and then justifying their plays with "Dan said on page..." When there is very often a crucial difference in a situation, usually its the stack sizes, because we mostly post about shortstacked, online tournaments. |

Re: Harrington Example Hand (Vol I)
Good point. I thought I got the essentials of the hand analysis, which is mainly post flop, right. But a call of an UTG raise is different that a call of a BB raise. I would like some feedback on the questions posed, especially the weakness in my game that I address.
