1-2 live hand @ parx
yeah, shoving is really the only play worth while here unless villain is the tightest player ever (and I mean ever) and then I'd still jam. all-in is a pot sized bet and you'd get value from a call with any draw. if you're beat--ul, reload.

1/2 hand with AA
what was your stack size' up to ~$125 I don't mind a shove-looks like a huge (albeit non-garbage) range, something like 55-AA and A10+. looks weaker than a standard raise. Can definitely get someone to gamble with a mid PP or AQ/AJ type of hands OR someone that limped AK/higher PP hoping the straddler would raise. Above $125-$250 then I'd go with your raise size or slightly smaller/larger and plan on getting it in postflop anyway possible. Above $250 I'm making your raise size and playing postflop to the best of my ability value-wise. No mathematical logical to those cut-offs, just how ...

live cash spot. whats your line?
Need opponents stack sizes. I don't think its a bad call pre if stacks are all fairly deep and there's been plenty of action on the table but, damn, most of the time we have interest in this hand postflop, we'll be playing against an utg raiser with a draw oop against most anyone else that is also along for the ride. folding pre is probably best, but only u had a good feel on table conditions at that point. 1. your bet prices out a flush draw but this is live 1-2, we can generally get way more value and we really want to get the button to fold. I'd bet ~$35. 2. good turn card, but as played ...

1 2 Hand for Everyone
I know what you were feeling. when you get in that 'zone' ask yourself if your plays make sense given math, reads, etc. and then when you're feeling angry/confused asked yourself why you're there. if you answer with anything other than 'here to make money first and foremost' then leave. seems so f@cking obvious but have seen people tool out for no good reason all too often.

Open Relationships
dude, you're young. this isn't a 'bad' situation-but it has real potential to get bad if you really want a 'real relationship'. Like I said, keep it cool so you don't burn the bridge. I'd also look into what she said about her past relationships to get a read on what's going on. It's possible that with you going on trips and openly admitting to banging other broads that she's just trying to get your attention because she doesn't think you care for her. yeah, i know, this sounds pretty obv. I just see no positive result here in the short term. I would think that even if she's a 'good girl' ...

Open Relationships
Been in this situation before (roughly) and prolly about the same age. if we're using poker metaphors then play this one like you've already busted out and anything further is a bonus. I'd get any ideas you have in your head that you two will 'have a real relationship' changed right quick. you won't last, one (or both) of you will get mad and years later you'll wish you kept it cool for sex when you both weren't in better relationships. And you'll look back in a few years and realized this was a learning experience. imo, open relationships are fine, its just a problem with people that ...

"Interesting" Live $1/$2 hand
the thing i'd be learning from this is to look for this guy whenever I get to the poker room and do everything I can to get onto his table. I would also console him after the hand and tell him how 'unlucky' he was that a king came on the turn. nh gg ul; "won't happen again in a hundred years" or something

1/2 NL Live, WWYD?
I agree with dtools for the most part but I'm not worried about the caller. good 'young guys' would be raising with a monster hand in that spot and bad 'young guys' are folding to the big action that has come afterwards. you're just ahead of way too many hands that these live dopes are betting/raising with. disclaimer-I live in vegas where there is absurdly bad play in 1-2 games. that said, might as well reach for the wallet right away, you're probably fading hearts, other two pair cards and aces/nines once the old man decides 'there's too much in the pot' to fold.

Recently Moved to Thailand. Keep Banging "Secret Lover" or Date Nice Thai Girl
op states that boyfriend of columbian is 'visiting'. come on, you can go without for a few days, week, whatever until the visit is over. non-issue here; you're right where you need to be. end it with the columbian when the thai starts giving it up.

UFC 143 Diaz vs. Condit
I'd agree with a draw for round 3. I didn't think condit really did dominate until round 4. to CardxFactor--those kicks have to count, but I agree otherwise, diaz controled the fight most of the time.

UFC 143 Diaz vs. Condit
well, i'm glad condit won but I had diaz taking the first 3 and condit with the 4th and draw for the 5th, didn't look like diaz did much damage on the ground. however, I can see draws by random judges in the first 3 rounds as well. I think diaz won but I was diappointed with him after the 3rd and don't feel bad for him losing subsequently.

I had it 30-28 chael. Won 1 &3, 10-10 second round. I can see a one round swing for bisping, but chael won. Agree though, chael didn't look like a silva beater

My last live $1/$2 of the day
I think you should have thrown out the quasi-min raise to $30. prices everybody else out (and who cares, you have aces) and doesn't allow the maniac to fold (it's a min raise ffs)

Is it me or did chael not go 100%' I know that sounds ridiculous, but only 3 rounds. Chael could have had bisping on his back most of the time without gassing

**Official** Ron Paul Presidential Race Thread
sorry brah, just putting my two cents in (which is actually worth less than that). strange, I've never felt anything during any campaign/primary/election-just didn't care (call me what you want) but revolution has me caring for some reason. anyway, I asked prior in thread if he'd have interest in a VP position and that got a big negative reply. I wonder if this is his last go-round cause he evidently stated that he won't run for his seat again.
