Re: 20/40 Getting aggressive
[ QUOTE ]
With all due respect, what's the point here? You started off your post by defending what you knew the response would be. You know it's -EV, at least by the book. If you feel like for you it's +EV because you get a "better image" or you know how to "handle situations where I've put myself in jeopardy" then go for it. If you're going to play this way, then go for it. But again, why are you posting this hand? And when you get the inevitable response, why are you so defensive? [/ QUOTE ] The point of this hand was to generate discussion. I dont generally post hands that are strait forward and mundane. No one, including myself, learns from them. You really need to take a chill pill, man. The opening of my post was simply poking fun at a few players I know and have posted with on this forum for along time. They all typically play tighter than me and I was only joking around with this fact, not being defensive of the play I made. And whats to say this is -EV by the book? Where in the text do you see a hand example like the one I posted? I think you should have more posts than 83, and even more credentials on top of that if you wish to question a hand that I post. To better players I think this hand is very interesting and definitely worth me posting. Mike Emery

[/ QUOTE ] On a forum that has always prided itself as a non-flaming forum, encourages newbies to participate, etc. I agree this is extremely rude and arrogant. Memo to self: Remember that I am not worthy of responding to Mike Emery's posts.

Re: 20/40 Getting aggressive
Don,
Mike was just joshing around with some of us with the tone of his post, then Uwda didn't see the humor, then Mike responded. He is actually a very nice guy (and hilarious) IRL even if he has no sense of direction. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] Jeff

One thing I do not wish to see, is for this forum to crush the questions and comments from those that may be a little timid jumping into the mix.

FWIW, I think mike should have just posted his hand, with the results, and explained his reasoning. Whatever though, Mike Emery's a great guy who supports working women.
