Re: Home Poker Game in NJ
Good luck with that attitude buddy. I run a home game and no one gets beat up or cheated. We do smoke however, so maybe you can find a friendly game in a nursing home or something.

Rake vs. Hourly Drop in AC
I'm considering moving up from 1/2N to 2/5 NL. I usually play at Ceasars and I'm told that while the pot is raked 10% (Max $4) at 1/2, all players must pay $5/half-hour to sit at the 2/5 table. It...

Re: ak hits A high flop and gets minraised
I either just complete or raise to $2 preflop and then check/raise the flop either way, folding to a reraise, and check/folding to a sizable bet on the turn/river.
