Re:Full Tilt Rush Poker
I've seen a lot of talk about "seeing how the hand plays out" but TBH... I kinda like not seeing parts of hands, because it doesn't allow you to be results oriented. Let's be honest, when you fold a mid PP or suited connector and then see a flop that hits you hard turn into a mega pot, it is hard not to get a little tilty, even though most of us know we were justified in folding in the first place. Also, I run really freaking good @ 100NL Rush, <3 it.

Re:Please look at this hand history and let me know if i played it bad opp says im an idiot
You say the 5x is going to mix things up and change their opinions of your hand strength.... are you 5xing your blind steals' Do you 5x 76s UTG' Because I HIIIIIIIIGHLY doubt you are 5x raising on the button with A3o with nearly enough consistency to justify your thin argument that the 5x raise is designed to mix up your opponents. Same PFR size, always. KISS.

Re:what steams you when you're playing an MTT
Adding to the minraise out of the SB in a limped pot... why is it everytime this happens I have 22-66 and never hit a set, or 45s+ and brick... why''!'!' That tilts me harder than anything.

Re:when do you think people will start folding?
That had nothing to do with the fact that Annette said it and everything to do with the fact that I run bad. But I'm sure she appreciates you blindly defending her at the expense of belittling someone you know nothing about. Soooooooo.... GFY'

Re:1000+50 Super Tuesday hand vs QTegirl- snap call?
I generally find the "I raise 90% of my stack but not all in to convince you I'm strong" is the weaker side of someone's range... but I'm not liable to comment on cmoney's play, or the play in 1Ks overall. FWIW tho I think he shoves KK+, given that the pot odds mandate a call from a large percentage of what someone is opening for ~1/5th of their stack UTG. I'd say this is rarely TT, commonly JJ, occasionally KK, hardly ever AA, and more often than not AK. EDIT: And as to your second question, fold because QQ never beats one hand, how you gonna beat two' :)

Re:Question about the Nightly Hundred Final Table
If you went through that analysis before making the decision than I think you are fully correct to raise/call. I don't like open shoving obviously vs. a competent player b/c like you said it does give him a chance to rr light and make a mistake. If you have made up your mind to r/c than I like your play. Vs a weaker player I would open shove, but as played I think you did fine. I cannont comment on ICM calculations at a FT bc I never make them anymore. :(

You guys need to get out more. She's maybe a 6 on good days. For the online poker community I guess that's the top of the food chain though.

Re:9/14 in 750k
The whole HH thing is shady, but as far as "changing gears" or playing on different levels... sometimes weak/tight nits go on rushes. What we all think is making moves, three-betting, restealing, whatever... is actually just the same weak/tight guy who refers to 50/1 HU when he clearly means .50/1 HU. The PERIOD before 50 makes a big difference. I hope they investigate it fully though, if only for ruso's benefit!

Re:How do you measure chip stacks live? Any hints/tips.
People usually stack their chips in towers of 10 or 20. Other than that it really just takes time to get comfortable with it. Also don't resteal in a small buy-in live MTT. I think this was a $300 right' If by resteal you mean shove an appropriate range of hands that you can expect to be profitable WHEN (not if) called, then go ahead, but if by resteal you mean ship on the button raiser with J3o... might as well not drive back. There is no such thing as fold equity in Atlantic City.

Re:A Shark's ROI
How are Sharks and Fish determined' EDIT: OK so that links to their homepage bc their website is the pitts... but, here is their explanation: "The shark symbol means the website has automatically categorized that player as being very strong. A very weak player will get a Fish symbol. The exact criteria used can be viewed (and changed if you disagree with our settings) in the preferences. We broadly aim to make the top 15% of players Sharks and the bottom 15% Fish by default. We have 3 types of Shark as a good Av. ROI varies with stake level. For example a 7% Av. ROI is extrememly good ...

Re:Questionable 3-bet over-shove preflop by Menlo late in the Sunday Brawl
BTW its not referred to as a "line" preflop. A line is your sequence of actions on the flop/turn/river, or any combination of those... just so you know as to not further enrage Andy McLeod with anymore incoherent dribblings... :)

Re:Fold KK to J high flop? - Folding overpair
I dislike shoving pre FWIW, you're not getting a high percentage of calls. Honestly I dont think there is much debate to be had, this is one of the better flops for KK that doesn't come K high rainbow. If this wasnt a 3 way pot and went bet-minraise, you'd happily shove over the top of the original raisers c-bet no'

Umm bc Guy can do whatever he wants' Being a mega billionairre affords you some unique opportunities. You think Ivey and anyone else on Team Full Tilt is going to say otherwise when the dude is donating 22 million in 2 years'''' Also, 22 million to Guy Laliberte is probably like, what $1000 to the average American'

Not jealous. Also my P5s name has to do with the river, in poker. I thought it was funny almost 4 years ago when I made it. But, for the record, not now, not ever jealous of Michael Phelps.

Re:3 betting pre for value
Must be nice to call almost 10% of your stack pre, hit a dream flop, and then proceed to double through a guy when your stack size practically mandates it. You are Daniel Negreanu, I bow to your greatness.

Re:High Stakes Season V - Who would your ideal table be?
No more Jen Harmon, Todd Brunson or Phil Laak plz. And I've seen enough of Sammy, Barry and Doyle from an entertainment standpoint. Hellmuth and Matusow, strictly for the lolz. Negreanu, Benyamine, Antonius for live sickos. Durrr, OMG, and maybe that tool SBrugby if only to hear people bust his balls about being such a white shirt/khaki pants wearing toolbag on PAD and cheating incessantly.
