Re: Welcome Tom Bayes
Don't worry, I'm sure the regulars will enjoy flailing you for any real or imagined flaws in triple draw /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Re: Welcome Tom Bayes
Thanks for the welcome. I'm not sure if I know what I did to myself, agreeing to be a mod. Fortunately Other Poker is pretty low traffic and has less flaming that most forums...

Re: draw live
Sorry, you'll need a time machine to play 5CD in a B&M cardroom. In 2007, it's the internet or home game for draw, at least in the U.S. Maybe live draw games exist somewhere in Europe?

Re: 5CD MTT: End game strategy
It's important to keep a viable stack in these games. To be able to play more than a push-n-pray game, you need to be able to be in a position to make a normal sized raise, have enough of a stack to...

Re: WSOP PLO8 Level of Competition?
I'm almost positive this is the first time PLO/8 has ever been spread in the WSOP. I'm just guessing, but most of the live tournament circuit regulars would have very little experience playing this...

A couple of new draw tournaments at PokerStars
This afternoon at 14:15 ET, PokerStars will be running a $8+0.80 "Double Chance" PL 5CD tourney. Apparently the gimmick is that there is one rebuy available, which cannot be used unless you go...
