Re: What did Yang have when Childs folded QQ?
"its just not that easy to pick up AA/KK"
actually at a nine handed table, one of your opponents will have AA or KK around 8% of the time. Not exactly like getting struck by lightning.

Re: do i cal this reraise all in w kq?
Fold pre-flop. You're not so desperate that you have to play such a weak hand against a raise. After the shove you still fold and the pot-odds are not that great. The pots laying you around 1.6 to 1....

Re: $1500NL - WSOP Event 49 - Hows My Reasoning?
He also had 7K chips to start, so a loose player might be happy to gamble with 2 pair since you cant bust him. If he's got AQ you will still fill up a third of the time. When you have to get through...

Re: Your thoughts on this hand....call or no call?
This is much closer than you guys are making it out to be. Against the top 25% of hands, K9o has 39% equity or 1.6 to 1 (which is what the pot is laying you). His range could definately be wider, but...

Re: What would jesus do?
Simple. Jesus would shove and make the flop come K-K-K and then have the turn and river both be jacks just for fun.

Re: Buying in with credit card
Wanted to use the AMEX for convenience MrFizzbin. In terms of amounts that sounds like a standard monthly AMEX bill for me, which i pay off promptly every month. Thanks for your concern though.

Re: JJ against a button raise
Rider my feeling was that he had enough chips to call a raise to 5K or 6K with AK, AQ, AJ. Then what do I do on the turn? A check looks so weak there.
