Re: Another boring thread . . . way too long. The river bet is a gimm
Hi errant.
I actually think that handreading is a very important skill and I like to see whether I am reading well or not. I don't ALWAYS try to see what my opponents have, but in this case, against THIS player, I really wanted to know. Does that seem too weird to you? [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Re: Another boring thread . . . way too long. The river bet is a gimm
Well I'm not going to lie and say that I agree with the check... and I don't think you presented this hand in a terribly constructive manner... but both are beside the point.
If you felt you had a rock-solid read on this player, and that seeing his hand here would help verify that read, and having that knowledge was more important than playing this hand for maximum value, then I have no problem with your play. Regardless I don't think it's too weird, just peculiar. Ciao

Re: Weak Tight you say Mikel?
Subfallen,
That is hilarious. lol. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Actually, I was going to say it was the 4th person, but then I remembered that you were from somewhere named Blue and would not understand. The next time the Babe (3rd person) has a question about anything in the English language, she is coming to you for clarification.

No need to mention his race . . .
If you were in a hand with more than one player, the poster could arguably say "white guy" and "black guy" if she was interested in trying to differentiate between the two (certainly, there could have been other, more appropriate, ways to do it, like UTG, MP, LAG, TAG, player1/player2, solid, tricky, loose, passive, etc).
However, since she is only describing one opponent, she could have said "guy" or "player" without any reference to color, race, gender, etc. I find the reference to "black" guy in the original post to be offensive since it was totally unnecessary, and I hate the republican-esqe way an attempt was made to legitimize said reference.

The fact that I see some humor in these remaks apparently eludes you. [/ QUOTE ] No, it doesn't - they are quite the thing that makes this thread great (other than you not agreeing that you should bet the river). Especially amazing is you not knowing betwixt 2nd and 3rd person and then using "heuristic" in a sentence. All sorts of comedy genius in this thread - especially when "the black guy" in question joins the discussion. Barron Vangor Toth BarronVangorToth.com

Sorry you take offense to the term Black guy. It was not meant to be offensive.
