Re: HU cash, 0.5/1, improved on the turn, always a raise?

That flop is a great c/r flop for the villain. I call the turn, and it's very rare that he'll bet the river with anything other than air or 6/x or a flush, maybe a ten if he paired it. Your...

Re: 3way - TAG check, insta-shoves my TPMK on a paired board

check flop, as played, call. If your CBet% is 90+, you're betting this flop with air alot. His shove is more consistent with a medium pocket pair A/x than a better king. FWIW, if you're betting...

Re: 100NL triple barrel ok?

2-barrel is terrible. And with his stats he's probably awful and calling the third barrel, but it's not absolutely horrendous if you shove (he has like, 50 behind at that point, right?). A/x much...

Re: Probably a dumb question....

What did SB do? If call, snap fold. If fold, I still fold 1st hand. If I've been 3-betting really light it's a little closer.

Re: 100NL; AA vs. loose TAG facing river bet

Is check/raising the turn bad? Q/x bets turn despite scare card a bit I think. K/x certainly bets the turn. Random floats can bet the turn, and it's a total rainbow. We gain value from Q/x and...

Re: Scary board, TPTK. HELP !!! What to do?

I bet/fold flop. 3-bet shoving isn't terrrrrrible on the flop, or at least I don't think it is. I check/raise this flop with Ad/x all the time.

Re: NL200 AA vs Tag

I like the line. CRAI flop is awful on this board. Turn shove is way good. AK hit, two different 2-flushes, and TJ.

Re: Scare cards hits, facing large river bet.

This hand is really gross because you're so deep. At 100BB, I'm stacking off on the turn against a 32/24. I think a villain flats hands like 87et.all on the flop all the time. I don't know how to...

Re: Variance? After how many buyins do you decide it is not a downswing?

Serious response: You say you are not playing great. Even if you don't think your game has changed moving from 50NL to 100NL, it probably has. Check poker tracker if you have it. Step back down...

TomCowley is correct. The non-bracket weigh-off for second is more efficient and the answer is 21. Can someone give me a purely mathematical explanation of WHY the non-bracket weigh-off becomes...

Re: math problem

I can't think of a better method off-hand than Sholar's. However, unless I misunderstood, his method takes 22 measurements, not 21. (Second place coin has 4 choices, which takes 3 measurements, not...

Re: Can someone please explain Iron Man?

Well, now I'm signed up for the Gold freeroll. I guess it just hadn't fully updated or something (???). I guess it's all worked out (you only get signed up for one freeroll, correct?).

Re: I suck at prop bets

You're a 3-2 favorite on a flop, dead heat on the turn, and very slightly better than 2-3 underdog on the river. It really depends on the game whether or not this bet is +EV. I'd watch for the...
