Re:Will US players ever play on Party again?
That sucks Hoopie1. They always said the ability to rebuy everytime you went all in (win or lose) was not a glitch. Sure was advantageous to big bankroll players. Oh well.

Re:Gus Hansen on Tilt?
After reading his new book "Every Hand Revealed", I can understand why. Don't try this at home kids. Clearly he has good results in WPT events, but I don't think many people could survive with that playing style. _________ - A Digg-like social voting site just for poker content.

Re:New 5R tourney on Stars tonight
I likey the sound of this one. Buy yourself a big stack. Oh how I long for the Party Poker days when you could exploit the "rebuy glitch" to buy a big stack. Damn the government for chasing Party out of the US. ___________ - A Digg-like site just for poker content.

Re:is this the right call by him on the bubble
I do not think your push is bad with JTs -- JTs plays pretty well against AK and AQ. You were short-stacked with an M around 4 and had to make something happen. However, everyone in tourneys now knows about M theory and so big stacks will often call you with any A. His was also short-stacked and I don't think his call was terrible. You could be pushing with any two value cards -- KQ, KJ, TJ, 44, etc. At this point, getting into the money to win your $1 back does not matter, building a stack is what matters and pushing and calling with value hands is what you have to ...

Re:Bet on the river or no
I think I would have checked the river too. I think the calls by charlimand were pretty loose -- I either would have raised or fold on the flop. I think your bet was a bit small on the flop and I would have suspected you did not have the K on the turn with the small bet. But I definitely would have checked the river because all that calling should denote at least a weak K. ___________________ Check out , a Digg-like site exclusively focused on poker.

Re(2): how bad is my call here
I definitely would have folded that hand. I try to use 20% of my stack as a guide for making questionable calls late in a tournament. For instance, if I have less than AK or pair of 9s, I am not calling half my stack. However, if the all in raiser only has 20% of my stack or less I will call with a lot of cards I normally would not even play in an unraised pot - hands such as A9, AT, QJ, JT, 55, etc. If the raise is only 10% of my stack or less, I will likely call with any two cards. He is desperate in that instance and could be raising with anything and I will just take a gamble to try to ...

Re(2): Any other basketball crazies here?
I disagree JRoth, I think the Illini will surprise this year. We will still probably finish 3rd or 4th in Big Ten but that would be a good year for this squad. Maybe 2nd round of NCAA. This morning we just received verbals from two excellent 2009 prospects -- so it is a good day in Illini Nation.

Less than 48 hours to Midnight Madness and I am pumped. I am an Illini fan but I love college basketball in all forms and flavors. I have DirecTV with the Big Ten Network and I will be watching the Midnight Madness coverage on Friday. Anybody else pumped up for MM'

Re(3): Below and Apestyles PXF videos - not as good?
Apes, thanks for joining the mentoring team. I am looking forward to watching the full video. I have gone through the analyzer to get some sense about the tourney and hope to start watching the vids tonight. I for one really like to see the differing styles of play of the various different pros. I also like going through the analyzer for some of the other pros that post their hand histories publically.

Re(3): Hacked Again! wtf!
How do keyloggers get their program on your account' do you have to open a file emailed to you or downloaded from a website. I never open anything unless it is something I requested, but I was just wondering if that will prevent this type of hack.

Mindwise, You guys still rock in my book. BTW, one ofthe best features ofthe site is the hand history analyzer, I try to useit for several ofthe tourneys I go deep in -- helps my play. Also,I like to peruse through the public animated HHs that are availablefrom other members. I have gone through at least 3 ofAnnette_15's animated HHs (she has more than 10 posted). There are also animated HH there from Roothlus, Strassa,CrazyCypriot, RandALLin, and many others. These are great players that have made animated HHs public to PXF members out of the goodness of their heart. Pretty cool ...

Re(3): #1 Pen's Article...
At a full ring game, I believe you make most of the nights take onhidden hands such as trips and str8s. So I tend to limp/call withthese hands a lot.thsce so many players overplay pocket pairs theseplays are hugely EV. Reraising has value in ring games, but moreoften post-flop in my opinion. If you reraise one or two playerspreflop with AA, 9 times out of 10 they both fold and you win nothing. I will often through away good hands after the flop when faced withlots of pressure, because I know I am going to make a lot of money on ahidden hand eventually. I try to limit the losses on ...

Re(4): Discussion on Methods to Increase MTT Final Table Rates
Ari, You Da man. Great stuff. In a December Mansion tourney, I lost a race and ended up the shortstack with 12 to go. I pushed the next hand and doubled. Ithen pushed the next 6 of next 10 hands and ended up going to the FT with an above average stack. Aggression on the bubble is hugely ++++EV. I also think you have to be willing to take some big risks in the middle stages of the tourney. The second hour is critical, chip up or get knocked out -- don't just hang around.

Re(6): profitability of tourneys
I am mainly a tourney player. I only have time to play 1-2 nightsper week but I do well enough to make money at the smaller buyintourneys. I used to play strictly cash games and would win $ inprobably 80% of my sessions. However, overall I have found my bankroll has grown much faster sinceplaying tourneys than playing cash games. I think my personalityis more attune to tourneys. I get very bored playing NL cashgames for long stretches. And while I won most sessions, the losing sessions were usually for big numbers -- so the variance is difficult to deal with in cash games. The real key to ...

Never Give Up -- FT of Mansion $50
We were down to 11 players in the Mansion $50 tonight and I lose a race wiith another similar sized stack and I get down to about $6000 chips when the average is around 30,000. I am the short stack I start moving in with any decent cards, I get one suckout double up and then 4 folds to my all in raises. Get to the final table with just under an average stack -- It was a tight bubble. At FT, I catch AA right away and double up from the chip leader. Then a couple hands later I get KK to win another decent pot and take over the chip lead. WE are now down to 7 and still hanging on the to chip ...
