Default Re: Queens are a bust!

Zag,

I just read your noted post with great interest. It makes perfect sense to me and I think the most useful (for me) aspect of what you wrote was that if I have a big stack, people will play differently against me. In particular, we can generalize what you wrote to mean:

- when you have a big stack (and I would add, especially when people know you are not afraid to push) people show you more respect. They are less likely to make a big bet on a bluff as they know they are putting their whole stack at risk. This is especially true for the middle level stacks.

- people will play you all the time for the implied odds, so you have to be doubly suspicious of calls that "aren't getting correct pot odds". If the boards looks scarey, you have to give it more respect.

Thanks! Fantastic post.
