ML Digest: Week Ending 12/8/05

This Week's Headliner
*Redd offers a pithy post that encompasses the wisdom of the micro-board. (One sparks a bit of controversy, though...)

A Well-Timed Raise
*If you have good reads, seize the opportunity to fold out a better hand.

Getting the Most Out of a Huge Multi-Way Pot
*Betting vs check-raising for value when you're drawing and playing vs a limp/reraise.

Does Micro Know Best???
*Micro-posters weigh in on a hand originally posted in Small Stakes.

When the Flop Is Ugly
*Just hitting the flop is not enough. Sometimes the right play is check/fold.

The Odds We're Offering
*Like the casinos, we want to control the odds we offer our opponents so that they are in our favor when we can. Our opponents don't have to understand odds for us to benefit (in fact, if they don't, all the better).

The Exception That Proves the Rule
*Don't be scared to value bet the river! That said, there are times to check behind.

Watch Bottomset
*The reigning King of the Kiddie Pool offers a thread. All hail the King.

When It's Raised Ahead of You
*A Discussion of Cold Calling

Three Hands At a Tight Table
*This thread also answers that musical question: "Why are you sitting at a tight table?"

Putting the Maniac to Work for You
*Use him to protect and help you build a pot.

Turn and River Dilemma
*Not boring.

The Book of Aaron
*Forget Matthew, Mark, Luke, and all the rest of the posers. Tiltaholic compiles the canon of Aaron W.
