Re(5): H@ll Living In San Diego Now?
I had the plesure of playing with Oren Halling at the EPT French Open this year. I was at his table and he is quite a good tournament player contrary to what people say. He was super aggresive as usual and made some good laydowns. He busted out fairly early with his AQ vs. AJ when the J flopped. He was quite a gentleman and a solid player. Is Oren the best cash game player online' Is his heavy drinking interfiering with his $/Hour at 10/20 NL' Does 3 pair beat a straight' I don't know the answer to these questions but this should really help you out. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(4): consumed by the game
I did that once in a large lecture hall. The only problem was when my flopped straight was rivered by a backdoor flush I immediatly stood up and said "**** off PokerStars." It clearly interupted the lecture and I was banned from the University. Has the ban hurty my search for a real job' Does playing poker in lecture hurt your ROI' Is the $50K HORSE event the softest WSOP event' I don't know the answer to these questions, but this should really help you out. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(4): consumed by the game
My concern with duffer24 is that he is having too much sex. 40% of a standard day in America is 9.6 hours. 9.6 hours of sex is in my opinion a little over the top. You would have to be worried about getting burned out and finding new partners. Am I a sex expert' Am I a therapy psychologist' Does you flush draw count as your kicker in a Ace High situation' I don't know the answers to these questions but this should really help you out duffer24. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(1): Omaha H/L
The key to Omaha H/L is to be patient. My grandfather always said, "If your not waiting for the nuts, your not winning." He was refering to Omaha H/L. You must be patient unless the game is 1/2 Kill in which case you would need to also be patient. Am I a Omaha H/L expert' Was my grandfather a Omaha H/L theororist' When you get quartered do you beat the rake' I don't know the answer to these questions but this should really help you in your quest to conquer the game that is Omaha H/L. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(14): Cash Games Players are the True Players
I once played a Cash Game tourney. God was it fun. Real money in play but with tournament structure. I've never had such a rush. Stars should incorporate something like this. Everyone put up $100. Blinds start at .25/.5 and go up every 15 minutes. How fun would that be. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(2): how many outs does it take to hit a draw on stars?
I quit playing Stars when I was dealt Ts9s and the flop came AsTs4c. I knew something was wrong right then. I know play Party where I turn quads every fortnight. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(4): Cash Games Players are the True Players
Back in the 80's in a local card club half the pot was raked at my $8/$18 game. Did that make me quit poker' Did I ever beat the rake' This should clear up some of your concerns about rakage. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(3): What pisses me off about ring games.
Not turning the cards over reduces collusion so that is why Stars and such sites don't turn them over. Collusion is ruining the game and this is the one thing that could stop it. Keep the cards turned down till river. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Is the Re-Steal the New Play In Poker?
I consider the re-steal a way better way to accumulate blinds and antes instead of raising in LP to steal. It shows a ton of strength and puts all the other players chips at risk. Plus you don't have the image of a blind stealer. The only downside is when you run into a hand. Thoughts' Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(1): short handed 5 players card dead
Maybe you should try multi-tabling. Hard to go card dead with 10 tables going. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Re(3): Stu (the kid) on TV ESPN ECL @ 10 am est
I had the great honor of playing with Stu Unger in the late 1980's in Vegas. Though he was a great card player he was not a true gentleman to the dealer. I rivered a boat to his nut straight and he started cursing at the dealer and me. I do respect his play though. Keep doing it, see what happens.

Doyle's Room Story - MUST READ
Ok so I recently wanted to tryout Doyles Room, just to see how it is and all. I made a quick deposit and sat down a lil 2/4 NL game. So a few hands later im in the BB and a player in LP limps.His name was TheDevistater aka fish. Ok he limps in and I look down I have aces. I raised to 5x the BB.
