Re: Big draw on the turn in big pot
Well, yuck, that was a disastrous result. /images/graemlins/frown.gif A7 would be getting immediate 18.5:2, maybe almost enough to continue regardless?

Re: Big draw on the turn in big pot
Can someone explain why we would possibly want to bet the turn here? I think the following statements are most likely all true, no?
We are currently not the best hand.

Re: 2 Pair with 4-straight on board

Preflop I'm guessing 5 way is good enough to play 65s for one bet from the BB? I'm not too good with mediocre hands, plus OOP, so I'm thinking folding isn't too horrific either...

Re: In the pond (HG) with Frond
So Frond's in the HJ, perhaps looking to buy the button? Still an easy-peasy fold, no? If an Ace flops and Frond has one he's probably crushing you (unless raising a little light with A9s/A8s); how...

Re: KQ in BB against Loose Deceiver

Button is very loose passive old...

Re: November Goals, Graphs, Results Thread
Tonight will be my last game of the month. Only have to make up 5 BB to break-even for the month, not bad considering this month included my worst session ever (-68.75 BB in 5 hours).
