Re: What job could you NOT do?
Just about any of the jobs you see on "Dirty Jobs". That whole show is like a really bad prop bet.
Embalmer/mortician. Something about this one gives me the screaming heebie-jeebies. It seems...

Re: Cheapest nice rural place to live in the US ?
I agree with SW Oregon. SW Washington is also pretty nice if you like the outdoors. Not so nice if you like live poker (they aren't going to prosecute anyone for online). The South Bend/Willapa...

Re: 10NL JJ facing a raise preflop
Looking back on it, the hand reeks of AK-AJ. I didn't have much of a read on him, but he raises with one of those hands, c-bets about half the pot when he misses, puts me on some kind of draw (maybe...

10NL JJ facing a raise preflop
Two questions - should I have raised preflop and/or on the flop, and what to do on the turn push? I hate the way I played this hand start to finish.

Re: QQ What would you do?
I have to agree with mrd99a. Calling the turn guarantees a bet on the river. Raise or fold the turn. I probably fold. At this level, a lead out bet like this usually means they have the goods -...

Re: Early all in push - What is their range?
Wow - I'm limping WAAAAAY too many hands preflop. I play $10, so maybe it's different than $20 and up, but it seems like almost everyone limps unless they have a really big hand. I would limp Q2...

Re: Early all in push - What is their range?

Re: New Poker Chip Set (Advice pls)
That's a good offer they have going. I got the Nevada Jacks and I really like them. Your home game is pretty close to mine in limits. I go 100 $.50's, 200 $1's, 100 $5's and 100 $25s. The $25...

Re: NL50: Fish or Sleuth
I probably do. Also, I might reraise the flop and fold to a big re-reraise. This looks to be a c-bet when his hand didn't hit. If it's AA-QQ or two diamonds, a reraise will let us know. Any stats...
