Well, at least highlighting the name of the player who is last to act?

Still takes too long. They can't just click on the name and something happens. Its like a text box. They'd have to manually do something to notate the last to act EVERY SINGLE HAND. It's much easier to just say "Button is on Tony" or "Button is in seat 3".

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (11/10) (10/20 NL)
Bart,
The question kind of morphed into "is it ever correct to raise ONLY for information?" Ex: you've got TPWK or middle pair and want to see if anybody out there has you beat. However, in this situation, you also want people to fold, nullifying the "ONLY for information" part.

I imagine raising for information can get you in trouble by exposing you to a reraise bluff.
If you have say JJ and the flop is K 3 8 rainbow, do you raise here if last to act??

Nobody cared last night about my trivia about the Earl of Sandwich inventing the sandwich so he could eat while staying at the gambling table. - true story.
Think about that the next time you are at a table and see a fat lardo stuffing their face while cold calling your raise.

That is too dam funny to believe almost. Cite your source sir! (please) Btw, that whole etymology of "the nuts" was fascinating. Can anyone corroborate that story?
