Re(1): lol at poker pros
This reminds me of a funny story. When I was a medical student a couple years ago I was on the labor and delievery floor. It was a slow night and the doctor I was working with started a SNG online. One of the patients began to have some problems and I was forced to take over the poker game from him. But he would come out every couple minutes and see how I was doing and play a couple hands. I actutally ended up winning it for him. It's just funny to think that a person at your table could actually be in the middle of delieving a baby. lee_do

Re(1): Tahoe WSOPc.... questions:
I'm actually vacationing in Lake Tahoe right now. When driving around the lake I stopped in to check at the poker room. The room is actually in Harvey's, which is across the street from Harrah's. They are connected via a tunnel. The poker room was pretty standard - maybe 12-15 tables. I was there on a Tuesday about 1 pm. They only had 3 games going: two 3/6 limit, and a 2/3 NL. I might go back Friday night and check out the action. This week is transitioning between the winter ski season and the summer season. After Memorial day I'm sure there will be more action. I can't speak as to how many ...

Re(1): Came in 5th at Stars $100K Freeroll
Thanks for the congrats. All too true about the ridiculous $$ in rake I've paid. Would anyone be interested in me posting a complete or partial hand history' Not that I made a ton of great plays, but I played a short stack for a long, long time. I would love to hear some comments or discussions about certain hands. lee_do

Re(1): Serious post about multiaccounting//collusion
I reported a similar situation to Stars. An aquaintance told me that he and a friend would sit in the same SNG and share their hole cards (but I don't think they would dump chips or that kind of thing). I got an e-mail back from Stars after their investigation. It said that they showed instances of soft playing each other, but they couldn't prove anything more. So they banned the accounts from playing at the same table, but did not takes funds. So even a thing like sharing card information (which is a pretty big advantage) is very difficult to prove. lee_do

New Stars Feature
Looks like on the new update that you can disable the automatic congratulatory e-mail from winning a MTT/SNG. Not a huge deal, but those were kind of annoying. lee_do

Re(1): Limit strategy question; concerning the article on the home page
I don't raise there with the intention of winning another 6 small bets. You could argue that raising will only build the pot and give people pot odds to draw out on you after the flop. However, I still raise on the button hoping to get force out the blinds and give someone the chance to 3 bet it. I would also do this with KK and probably only call with QQ and AK. If I were in one of the blinds a would I consider checking or calling because I don't really want to play a big multi-way pot with AA out of position. lee_do

Pokerstar SilverStar $2500 Freeroll
Anyone else playing' At first glance you think, "Hey a $2500 freeroll is pretty good". But then you look and see the payouts start at $6. Plus this will be the smalled field of the entire year. Anyway, I'm gambling early and have doubled up on my QQ vs. AK. lee_do

It's an online tournament (on , of course), but will be played live down here at the Atlantis Casino in the Bahamas. Why is it called "Battleship Poker'" Because it will be a series of heads-up matches with the two players facing each other with their laptops back-to-back (reminiscent of ...
