Re: AP - Turkey Bowl
So far nothing. We are going to be contacted about compensation. They assured me it would be good compensation whatever that means.

Re: Turkey Bowl
Only 4.5 hrs in now and still the blinds haven't changed since the 1.5 hr mark. If I wasn't doing well I'd have been gone a long time ago. The top 7 players have nearly 100BB stacks out of 10...

Anybody else playing in this on Absolute?
I qualified and was bored this afternoon (ice storm in my area) so decided to give it a try.
The blinds went up every 10 min for the first 1 1/2 hours....

Re: a break from the norm
Yep I think you whould have raised preflop. Might be ok to do occasionaly to mix up your play though, I'm not sure how important that is against most 50NL players.
In the end though it doesn't...

Re: River donk-bet
Am I missing something or are the villians different in the two hands?
I'm not sure what the villian in hand number 2 has to do with calling the villian in hand number 1.

Re: KJs in SB vs PFR
Dang this hand got a lot more interesting when you corrected it.
There is no way I could c/c the river and I don't think we should.

Re: KJs in SB vs PFR
My comment is that Poker room is rigged since the J of clubs gave you both a pair and a flush draw.
I'd fix the hand history since its hard to tell if you have a flush here or not.
