\"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Fri 10-20 NL)
 

For those wanting to tune in, head on over to watch That's Alan play to the river and stack the chips, being anywhere from a 6:1 to 4:1 dog. Watch Alan as he makes ther most incredible, mysterious reads, as if he knew what the turn and river would bring. Watch Alan, faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, able to leap tall stacks without a single ounce of ability. Enjoy, and my apologies to Kevmath.

Edit: Works better than what I'd put up.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6)
 

I'm going to try something new and instead of 5 threads, just do 1 thread for the week and see how that works.

Monday's show will be 5-10 NL with a $500 min, no max buyin.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6)
 

what's up guys...i was watchin one of last weeks shows, i believe it was wed, when ed and mo were playing very soft against each other checking it down or making big bets to let the other know to fold. Now i didn't see any of this when another player was in the hand but what if someone like mike or alan were in the hand and something happened like mo putting in a pot size bet of 1,000 and ed calling with mike folding then they decide, since they are friends, they check it down from there on in. wouldn't you be livid being the player that folded when you in a sense, could've seen the turn and river for free? just seems they should eliminate that play somehow.

There hasn't been as much softplaying as there had been in the past. It seems to happen more often when everyone at the table knows each other and there's some sort of unspoken agreement that friends will do that at times.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

Bart asks weather Mo should call the river shove with his QQ if he can beat 3 hands, and cannot beat 2 hands. If we assume that his opponent's range is only those 5 hands, the pot (with the last bet) is 3500 and Mo has 2500 to call, how do we do this math? Is it:
(3/5)*(2500+1000)-(2/5)*(2500) = 1100
So, does Mo have 1100 in +EV?

I remember a few months back bart and dave stating that they were going to have a table that can play omaha games on the show. Just wondering what happend to all that?

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

Dave is not just wrong. He's loud wrong.

Once when Barry Greenstein was on the show, Bart trotted out that business about either having nothing or a big hand. Greenstein dismissed it offhand, saying, "Yeah but you don't know which."

The key to the sitch is that you need to bluff with the right frequency. If you bet the pot on the end, you should be bluffing half as often as you've got the big hand.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

Now Bart is agreeing with him.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

You don't give "so much information away" if you bluff with the right frequency. Is this so hard to understand?

They have the table cameras adapted for Omaha, but last I heard them mention it, there was some sort of software issue.

The Tuch is Correct....Bob Ciaffone is an instructor at www.pokerschoolonline.com.......He is a tourney instructor. I would rather listen to Tuch who spends 5 nights/week giving opinions on correct play, rather than Bob who would rather give his opinion by books only. No disrespect to Bob as he is a well know tourney player. I just happen to think that Tuch is "New School" and Bob is "Old"

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

You haven't seen people lose "hundreds of thousands of dollars" not value-betting hands on the river that will not be called by lesser hands more often than they will be called by hands that win. Your argument is (or was a couple of minutes ago) that not betting light hands gives away information on other hands. That's not the case.

What school is Barry Greenstein?

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

No one is saying you should not bet if you think you will frequently be called by a lesser hand.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

You will all be happy to know I've got to step out for a while. Back in a while.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

We missed two hands talking about not learning to sky. Where's the fast-forward?

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

Don't know how many people will be watching the show and watching election night coverage instead, but tonight's show will be the same as Monday, 5-10 NL, $500 min, no max buyin. Another thing worth noting is Card Player does have a picture of PokerTek's headsup tables, which look to be used in January on the show:

hello bart, dave, kevmath.

Re: \"Offiical\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Mon 5-10 NL)
 

Watched last nights show today and was interested in a hand between Sean who is in S2 tonight but S6 last night I think. He was involved in a hand with a guy last night when he had 1010 and the other guy had 55. The hands were played pretty well until the end when Sean went into the tank after the river bet. What do you think about the comment the guy made to Sean about taking so long to decide what to do? Do you think that was the information Sean was looking for to make that call? Was it a read or frustration call becasue he didn't know for sure wheather the guy had him beat or not? Any thoguhts on that hand. I have been thinking about it. Just an interesting hand is all.

Maybe there are other forms of "tilt"
People have bad days. The stars weren't in alignment that particular day.. LOL
As I tell my kids and wife; I can't have a good day everyday no-matter how hard I try. ;-)

How difficult is it to fet a seat at the table on "Live at the Bike"? I have been a subscriber for 3 months of so and Delta just started a direct flight from Jacksonville to L.A. I am thinking about booking a flight just for the opprotunity to play on the Webcast.

Thanks,
Three Beers

Re: \"Official\" Live at the Bike thread (Week of 11/6) (Tue 5-10 NL)
 

It would be helpful to PM Bart to let him know you want to come in. Also let him know what you'd be playing, to help you get a seat.

Ignoring and peacocking are not mutually exclusive.

I learned a lesson in peacocking once. I friend was having a wedding reception (his second of three). The tongue-in-cheek invite said gentlemen should wear a tux or a hawaiian shirt. I opted for both. I wore the tux, complete with black tie, and a garrish red-orange hawaiian shirt. A surprising number of women there discovered they really, really needed a ride home. I chose a real nice one. Never wore the outfit again, though, so maybe I didn't really learn all that much.

Washington Post is projecting that the Dems have picked up at least 21 seats in the House. They need only 15 to take control. The Senate is still in doubt.
