making pot odds calls from the blinds in MTT's It depends on your opponent's range (opening frequency in x position), opponent's aggression/skill level, and on your ability to play your hand out of position vs. the opponent. Against someone who plays passively in position, or face up, or whatever, you can definitely peel if you feel like you're gonna find a way to win the hand reasonably often. Obviously stacks are a factor and you'll need good implied odds. Against a strong player it's not highly recommended as you'll get owned a lot OOP. Posted in: Poker Discussion	selder1 May 15th, 2012
AQs 29bbs facing nitty 3x (11bbs).... It's 11bb effective This hand would be much easier if he just jammed, in which case we snap re-jam.. I'm assuming the guy isn't very strong based on his 3x, as shoving and minraising are the only good options for him if he's not folding. If he's bad, there's a good chance he just doesn't even understand that he needs to be open shipping 11 bbs in a spot like this, so I'm not sure he's just jamming AJ/KQ, etc.. Not sure there's any point to 3b small, as we shouldn't really have a 3b/f range here. I think we have to jam.. 11/5 can be misleading also.. There are tables where I've had tighter ...

Selling Shares for Upcoming Live 1k-2.5ks --> Long term >35% ROI Player Hey guys, My name's Sam. I've been playing online for over 8 years and have a ton of live cash experience. I've played less than 100 live MTTs but have a few ~2k wins in Vegas and one tracked 2nd place in Reno last year for 5.4k in a $400 bounty tournament. I'm headed to the East Coast for WSOPC AC, Foxwoods, and the Borgota Spring Open. Possibly more.. I'm going to be putting myself 100% in all events Posted in: Stakees Forum	selder1 Feb 16th, 2012
Bodog Software up date.. I definitely think the s/w is an improvement. The racetrack theme is decent. Now, Bodogs to do list: Tolerable sounds, or at the very least, the ability (like in the old s/w) to make it "Alerts only" SCREEN NAMES! I have a name yo, its not "player 0046" I have to say though, fucking with people in chat is kind of funny. Didn't see if anyone posted this, but if you have something written in the chat box, and action goes on you, your text gets wiped out. blast.. edit: apparently also if a new hand is dealt' Posted in: Poker Sites	selder1 Dec 1st, 2011

Bodog Software up date.. I used to work for Bodog in the Poker and Poker Security depts. and I certainly know for a fact that Poker is far from their priority. When I was there, basically EVERY issue (i.e. disconnects, s/w crashes, and on and on) was well known by everyone but we kept making excuses because, although the issues had been presented to the "higher-ups", nobody was willing to invest any money in fixing it. I talked to managers, etc, arguing that a reasonably small amount of money to fix the issues would add to a really nice boom in traffic eventually... to no avail, obviously. They were just not at all ... Posted in: Poker Sites	selder1 Nov 30th, 2011
Quality or quantity in MTTs I think it's definitely important to find the "sweet spot", where you're playing a good amount of tables and still fairly well engaged. ( can still take notes, etc ) For me, I can play 16-20 tables, but I like to stick to 8 or so. Everyone would probably get their highest ROI if constantly 1-tabling, so obv the more you play, the more you "compromise". (although some just get bored and spew 1-tabling) My advice would be to review your play after sessions, and when you're playing a lot of tables, see if you think you're missing any spots, or if you make any bad plays based on having a lack ...

Kaspersky Internet Security I have had it before and found it light and effective.. Just got it again from the VPP store myself for my new PC, clicking buttons and trying to spend VPPs. Only 1 PC license and the "cost" is 16 GBP which iirc is 30+ USD. Might just be better to go buy the actual product with 3 PC licenses and get better value from the VPPS buying something else..'

pot n poker I'm pretty comfortable playing baked but I've smoked for like 10 years.. sigh.. I'm thinking of doing an experiment to compare my high vs. sober game.. To agree with some others, it's def. dependent on subject, as are other things like driving stoned. People that rarely smoke probably shouldn't drive baked, whereas people that have smoked a ton are like normal. (well, pretty much :P) Posted in: Poker Community	selder1 Nov 25th, 2011
looking for new site..canadian It depends what hours you play.. I'm on the west coast so from like 9am to 1 there are a few ok tourneys on 888. From like 3pm on there are some ok tourneys on Merge, Bodog. Obv the first 2 are euro sites so our primetime is off peak, and for the US friendly sites our primetime is peak. Bodog doesn't take Instadebit but they do eCheck that works fine. It's more direct than ID, obv. Edit: Also, ID gives you lame conversion rates.. I get screwed every time I c/o decent amounts with them. Posted in: Poker Sites	selder1 Nov 25th, 2011
Live Tournament Hand Advice As a general rule of thumb, you want at least 15BBs on a reship such as this one to induce enough folds to make it profitable. If he's opening absolutely 100% including 72o and is really bad this shove may be marginally +ev with 12 BBs, maybe 11, but with 9 BBs you are limited to a) open shoving, and b) shoving when you're sure you're ahead of the person who's acted in front of you's range, because you're getting called 100% of the time. Yes he should be opening the button reasonably wide, but in general due to button vs. BB dynamic, we don't much respect at all. If you really think he's ...

Early in Nightly 70k Line Check.. Not a bad beat post obviously.. Is this optimal or maybe just b/f turn' Villain is tight/unknown. I think that he never has Qx, so if I bet the turn, I can fold to a raise... I can only beat KK in that spot and most don't flat KK pre. Villain is a random tho...

Re:couple of HH's from midnight madness Hand 1 you definitely need to bet the flop vs. some random in a $10fo. I think since the turn is an Ace we kinda need to bet it too since all of the hands he calls the flop with except for his sets should hate it and we're the pfr. Once he calls that, we can easily be done with the hand. He won't fold to any river bet, especially some random in a $10fo. With your line, he will certainly not fold on the river and I think it's foolish to expect amateurs in $10 tournaments to fold because our "line looks super strong"... They don't care about your line, they want to ... Posted in: Poker Discussion	selder1 Nov 24th, 2009
