Okay, corrections in place and that incomplete question is answered.

Thanks,

The only 2 abbreviations i have not figured out yet:

OP (the poster but what does it stand for?)
SOP (standard opening play?)

In the pot and implied odds section I think a very basic discussion on how to apply these odds to your decisions will be very useful. E.g. on the example used, deciding to call a bet on your flopped 4 flush, do you look at the 4.22 or 1.86 odds and how to take bets on further streets into account.

Nope, my nitpicking is just the residue of trying to get those anal-retentive teachers off my case in high school and college. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

"Original poster," I believe.

"Standard operating procedure," perhaps? That's not a poker term, just a general abbreviation I've heard used.

Thanks, pottie. I'll revisit the question and see what I can work in.
