Ouch (again). King James has spoken. I am abrasive. I am not welcome. You take a poll on that dude, or you just having a 2+2 tilt?
And, for the record, your analysis is so bogus that even my college-age son picked up on it: Dad, he said, maybe you could lose a lot more than the 1 sb if you get a tough situation on the flop, like facing 2 bets with a flush or straight draw. You could get sucked into this so easily since the only way you can fit into the King's scenario is if you flop the straight flush or miss totally. Neither of these situations is a certainty. If that guy was so smart he would do a Bayesian analysis on the various outcomes.
Smart kid, huh! I'm gonna stake him and hope one day he gets to meet some of you pontificating experts over the felt.
So while I don't take you tilt personally, you should be a little more circumspect before you shoot your mouth off; the foot that steps into may be your own.

If facing 2 bets on the flop with a flush or straight draw is a profitable proposition, then you haven't lost anything. You take an
average of the possible outcomes, and decide the profitability based on that. You are basically doing the reverse of the donks at .5/1 who say hey, this J4s could flop a flush, or quads! I mean yeah what happens when the board comes 444KK and you are up against KK?? Good way to go broke. Anyway, I am fairly convinced that you are just baiting me, and if you aren't yikes, gl man. We should all be so lucky to be able to lose 36k per hour at 50/100!
a nice bbv thread by our boy!
