Fun $H!+ to do in vegas
Hey all, I haven't posted in OT in awhile but I figured this would be a good forum to ask this question. What are some random fun things to do in Vegas' As it relates to me, I have had a miserable time the past couple summers that I have gone to the WSOP. I have focused mostly on poker and if I catch myself focusing on something else I get mad at my "lack" of dedication. I realize this is extremely unhealthy and probably even counterproductive to my game. So this year I am looking to play a little bit less and try to enjoy more of what the city has to offer. I've been to my share of ...

your poker story
yevgeni and i actually didn't get along. we were only 19 so we both had problems. i was kind of a hothead and drinking a lot. yevgeni was sort of socially awkward and you could tell that he had been spoiled as a kid. he beat me in a controversial game of pool for over 3 grand so that didn't help things either. he's definitely a sicko when it comes to poker though and i'm pretty sure he is a lot better socially now. i think he reminded me of some of my tendencies in junior high/high school that i had worked out, so i sort of singled him out and made fun of him for it. ofc i didn't know ...

You mention working hard to improve your game to start beating fulltilt and pokerstars cash games. What specifically did this mean' What adjustments did you make to your game and how did you go about finding out how to make these adjustments' nice showing, and +1 that you come off as a class act.

simple-ish spot that is kind of hard to play in wednesday 320
i don't think flatting is burning money and i don't think it sucks. we could lead or c/r missed flops as long as they are unlikely to hit his range. not to mention we could actually make a hand and we are getting a really good price to do so. villain is controlled and aggressive but i'm not afraid of being 3barreled with AQ with these stack sizes. if anything that prospect makes me happier for the implied odds of hitting an A or Q. as for 4b/folding i don't really like it. i think if we 4b/fold AQ we should 4b/fold a higher frequency of hands and if we are doing that then we should ...

Howard Lederer at the Bellagio - Your Thoughts?
i don't care if he plays but you have to have a lot of money to sit in bobby's room. how has the US not seized all of his bank accounts and assets by now' i imagine every dime he owns at this point is from the fulltilt poker scam.

simple-ish spot that is kind of hard to play in wednesday 320
Agree with this. To me it looks like he doesn't want to flat and doesn't want to fold so he is deciding to take the initiative with some sub-prelim hand. ofc this read could be wrong and he is probably capable of making this raise with a strong hand but lets say our read is right then I am still unsure about how to proceed with the hand. idk what's best between get it in pre (by jamming or 4b/calling w/e) or flatting preflop. i kinda wanna be able to use my read that he is weak and i feel like shoving kinda lets him off the hook. on the other hand i would just be folding like 67s to ...

simple-ish spot that is kind of hard to play in wednesday 320
villain seems to be one of the better regs i have played with. i view him as pretty relentless but also controlled and smart. i expect to have the best hand more often than not but i don't expect to get it in preflop ahead very much. that said if i just flat call i let him own me in position on many flops and i do not like this. so what is the best course of action' PokerStars Hand #87473755457: Tournament #651011043, $300+$20 USD Hold'em No Limit - Level IV (50/100) - 2012/10/10 19:20:07 PT [2012/10/10 22:20:07 ET] Table '651011043 16' 9-max Seat #3 is the button Seat 1: Stunts25 ...

Range question Deep in high roller
i think gags' range is a weeee bit wide. not too far off tho and extremely hard to calculate for sure what his range should be since metsfan's tendencies are the biggest kicker. if he is ultra 2006 lol tight then phatcat should prob be weary of AJ here. if he is like 2012 tight but understands basic math and shoving ranges then it will be hard to fold A9s or AT or KQ or 66 or maybe even worse. sorry he sucked out on you with KJ =(

Is it worth it to Cbet with air in early levels of MTT's?
c-betting without thinking about board textures and the way the hand can develop is very bad. when i'm playing bad i've noticed my c-bets are apathetic, like i'm just going through the motions. when i'm playing well my cbets are very pointed. In the hand you described (which is a very general situation) I would be inclined to c/f. there are 4 cards we are up against and one of them probably has a pair or at least a decent draw. There aren't very many good turn cards to double barrel and while an ace or queen would be good turns they are infrequent and might be "false" good cards ...

My WSOP Main Event
Hey guys, I haven’t been active on pocketfives in a long time but the site has done a lot for my growth as a poker player. So I thought it would be good to give a little back. I also thought this would be a good exercise for me to do before I move to mexico in a week and get back on the full time grind. I’m just gonna recount as many hands as I can remember from the main event. This is just day 1, depending on how this turns out I might do some of the other days later. My WSOP main event Day 1c Let me start this off by saying that the WSOP main event is the greatest poker ...

Staking Dispute Question
and mr. blonde you are wayyy out of line. this is a serious matter involving a lot of money and op has every right to argue his case fully. action is swapped/purchased/sold ALL OF THE TIME between high stakes MTTers with just verbal bookings. people assume the money will get straightened out whenever. i mean i understand there are a couple of grey areas here but i think smokrok's line of credit exceeds 50$ lol.

Staking Dispute Question
i didn't read through the whole thread but i am really surprised to see the verdict here. i have always thought verbal bookings=action between friends. i guess this situation is different, but smokrok was good for 50$, come on guys.
