Re: Asset Allocation
Yes, good point. Everything is in a taxable account, except maybe 15% of the REIT which is in my 401k. I put the REIT in there because I thought it was the least tax-efficient of the funds that my...

Asset Allocation
So fine, a lot of "invest in index funds" advice gets thrown around here, and that's good stuff. But index funds are only part of the story. Once you decide to invest in them, there is still the...

Re: Too early for 77?
Why does everyone hate a push? 77 is a strong hand in this situation.
Suppose everyone else at the table has 2000 chips. In this case pushing is unexploitable.
Some hands are so strong they...

Re: Good or bad push? $22 Speed
The nice thing about push/fold situations is that when the decision is difficult it often does not matter what you do. This is one of those situations. Pushing is SLIGHTLY better, but the edge is...

Re: ($27) BB Bubble Call with 85s?
I don't think your equity goes "way up" if you call and win, but it certainly seems plausible to me that folding leaves you with less than 16% of the prize pool.
No one thinks that this is so? Or...

Okay, here's the thing. Fine, the SNG opener is tough to code. Until you fix it though, you must remove the forced update feature. I understand that it is not in place to frustrate users, but if you...

Re: RE: released version 2.026
Okay, this is f-ing retarded. The SNG opener worked PERFECTLY in 2.024. Now it is garbage. Two questions:
1) Why can't you make it work like it does in 2.024?
2) WHY WOULD YOU PREVENT A...

Re: ($16) Perfect time for a steal?
Even if he is calling with 55% (22+,A2+,K2+,Q2+,J6o+,J2s+,T8o+,T6s+,97s+,87s), which he certainly isn't, you should push any two. No?

Re: Room Mates / Apartments
A bidding scheme is not fair because it allocates the entire surplus of trade to one party.
EG, suppose Dave values the large room at 6 and I value it at 10. We will bid and I will end up paying...

Okay, so unless you pay $X, every number in the world converts to roman numerals forwever.

Re: AQ min-raised on the bubble
I don't understand. Treating the min-raise as a push, even if he's pushing 100% of hands you have to fold.
