Re: two hands from today\'s $1500 NLH at WSOP
If you're seeing the dead money in the pot, someone else sure will too...especially with your money in there now as well. This is the perfect play...if it works...but also a pretty regretable way to...

Re: PS 20/180 FT hand
I think you're off base thinking that people will fear a short stack UTG all-in move. If anything they will be inclined to call you with less of a hand because they know you're looking to make a move...

Re: Results
Looks like LAG is playing steal from position, using bubble psychology to raise the calling requirements of his opponents left to act. For him...this play is +EV with almost any 2 cards, because he...

Re: Line check - Blind vs. Blind
I'm not worried about having the worst hand here...the 1/5pot bet on the turn is a little odd. Looks to me that he can't be that strong, yet has an idea that he may have the best hand. Perhaps he is...

The "M", the number itself isn't what's important. What's important is that you are aware of the changing dynamic at your table as the blinds and antes rise and that you have a continuing adaptation...

Re: \"Outplaying\"
