Re: Villain offers to show a card

The only hand he could possibly bluff with here is 77 or 66, and most people aren't smart enough for that. 99% of the time when a situation like this occurs, the villain has the goods.

Re: ($27) Endgame - Anyone have any suggestions?

Knowing nothing about my opponents, here are the hands I would have played differently:

#8 - raise
#17 - reraise
#19 - raise
#23 - reraise
#30 - raise
#36 - raise
