Re: What exactly does \"time\" mean?

Re: How long do I withhold tips? Dealer mistake costs me $1800. (long)

Re: Am i too sexy for my shirt?

While he plays weird postflop, this doesn't describe his preflop raising range from UTG. Some people will never raise AJ here, and if this is the case, I would much prefer to have AK as opposed to...
