Re: Pokerstars E-check deposit option

Re: My Squeeze got called. How do I proceed?
By lagtard do you mean that UTG does not have fold discipline? If that's the case check-fold this flop. If you've seen him make some laydowns then shove this flop.

Re: Question about a live hand..
Shove preflop. Don't be drawn into results-based thinking. You just got unlucky with that flop. You got your money in good and that's all you can do.

Re: Beginning Bankroll
Stars has the $0.01/0.02 that South Pole refers to. Unless this has changed recently I believe that FT's cash games begin at 5c/10c. 5c/10c though is a good place to grind it out, discover your...

Re: Do you ever fold the Nut Low in Limit o/8?
I never fold the nut low in fixed limit O8B. The live game I play in is like the game you refer to where it's common for four or five players to go to showdown.

Re: Two Tens facing an open shove (Stars 100k)
Villian is definitely afraid to see a flop. Often it's going to be JJ, QQ, AK. Occasionally AQs down to A10s. Occasionally 22-99. It might even be KK not wanting to see an A flop. I think the...
