QQ fold in loose spot tonight
Table was tight and setting up for precisely a moment like this. The all-in was weird and I'm out of practice with bet size tells. :) I guess [AA,KK] strength would 4x the re-raiser there, then at least my fold would be semi-legit. Awful fold in retrospect!

QQ fold in loose spot tonight
I've been raising 200 pre for about 2-3 entered hands prior. Early to mid tournament, decided to fold QQ after 2 reraises. Judging by KINGOFKONGS2's hand, my table image was probably slightly loose pre. Is a QQ fold in this spot legit' Full Tilt Poker Game #24733779137: $8 + $0.80 Tournament (191522151), Table 9 - 25/50 - No Limit Hold'em - 23:24:56 ET - 2010/10/15 Seat 1: lineham3 (1,390) Seat 2: KINGOFKONGS2 (6,825) Seat 3: BigPimpLvL (6,220) Seat 4: HandsomMcdoodle (1,745) Seat 6: WellsFargoTilt (9,110) Seat 7: P gaston (3,765) Seat 8: acls7 (1,345) Seat 9: ...

Rankings: P5's Showing Points and Percentiles Details
or moderators, is there a way people can view a pointscale to percentile to give an idea of how many points it takes to move up certain percentiles' I thought this would be neat and a nice-to-have for site members. I am curious to see how many points it takes to get to the 80th, 90th percentile, 99th, percentile, etc. Maybe a simple: Percentile 70th 80th 90th ---------|---------|---------|----------|----------|----------- PTS 300 500 1300 Also, maybe a breakdown of how many players total and how many players you rank higher, etc. P5's FTW if this is available to players!

Re:weird 100r hand
You sure about "some monkey raising to 699" in this spot' Monkey seems too advanced brain-wise on the evolutionary tree. Might want to try "some donkey" in this spot, but maybe that is too weak of a play. Not standard IMO.

Top online pro Annette_15 OMGClayAiken - Do they use online poker tools?
What software tools do top online players like Annette and Galfon use while playing to help them make better decisions at the tourney or cash tables tables' -Pokertracker 3 -Pokercrusher -Others I use Pokertracker 3, but not while I'm playing. I don't use any other poker software while I play and I find I could still put up okay results.

Since the only information we have available to us is our hole cards, we have no way of knowing how often two players heads up both flop a flush.

Re:how bad did i play this
Amount to bet pre is a style issue. With your short stack, shoving pre widens your range. Bet about half your stack pre. If called, then shove any flop quickly.

Re:FTP $500 TLAP
The TLAP site loses the professional website layout continuity with the FTP site. Someone needs to run this stuff by FTP software QA IMO.

Re:Poker Player Efficiency Rating (PER) - incorporating volume in ratings
There exists an upper limit to volume in a day, a week, a year. PER should indicate a positive correlation with big $ earnings. I advocate making a PER only part of the P5 rating to differentiate the top pros a little more. Something like a bonus add-on: Player Rating + PER. For some pros, I see a lot of $0 earnings in between big scores. For others I see less $0 earnings. This may also lead into ROI scoring.

Poker Player Efficiency Rating (PER) - incorporating volume in ratings
Should a person that takes 10 tries to win 1st in a tourney or multi be rated higher than a person that takes 20+ tries given we normalize # of players and buy-in amount' This punishes low ROI, high volume players rated slightly higher than other more efficient poker players. Should there exist a P5 player efficiency rating' Do we have a P5 statistician to incorporate something like this into player ratings'

Re:Last tourney hand, any alternative lines? Leak in my game?
It looks like its a little tough, even on a flush/straight board, to get a set to fold on a 2/3-3/4 stack or push with my stack size vs. villian's. Given the play pre and flop, I think maybe a 2/3-3/4 stack bet on the turn is better.

Re:sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk spot vs truesyaloseeeee in $500 cube on stars
So far, if a creative donk had balls and shoved the river following all the logic the board gives, they could make good players Andy, Perl, guts, head, fold here with 33, 44, Q3 and maybe Q4, except for Mark' Interesting! Maybe Galfold's cash game bluff river raising would work in certain tourney spots: OMGProtogen Edit': 15% AQ, 15% Q4, 29% Q3, 1% 44 40% Bluff I'd shove it.
