Re: The MANIAC and the TAG

I would bet the flop and let the maniac raise thus better defining UT+2 hand.

You really need to get a seat change so as to put the maniac on your right.

I didn't know if I liked that jack or not.

I called time and leaned back in my chair to try and get an unnoticed read on my opponents which I was unable to do. I thought that perhaps I had seat 4...

Andy,

In addition to agreeing with everything that you said I felt that the 7 clubs on the turn seemed to be an innocuous card.

Re: Preflop Check Ups

It appears that you have changed seats between hand 1 and hand 2 which could be the best thing you can do.

I see no problem with your fold in hand 1. Did you look left to gain information on what...

Re: Review: Cache (Hidden) [light spoilers further down, maybe]
