Re: WCOOP TD2-7
I went bust in 241st place. That tourney rocked though. Good structure. I hope they consider running something like this more often.

Re: 2-7 TD try some funny business?
I'd not get so out of line here, and just draw 2. If you pick up more low cards but pair up, consider snowing based more on your read of your opponent combined with their decreased likelihood of...

Re: Computer Programmers solve checkers.
The reason it sucked is precisely because it did the +EV play (in terms of its hand's pure value) every time. This is an exploitable strategy. If the computer never bluffs, it's not going to get...

Re: WCOOP Satellites 5 card draw
Admittedly, I squeaked my way to the seat in the $8 2-7 sats, but I agree, the competition was pretty weak, overall. I'm definitely going to play these again to get more WCOOP seats....

Re: Another sat bubble question ($1.10 sat)
I agree with Pants about shoving this preflop. As played, and absent any reads on the player, I favor calling this. I would tend to exclude AA and possibly KK from his range because those are too...

Re: WCOOP triple draw satellites
Absent specific reads IMHO, it comes down to position. When you're OOP, you almost have to raise. With the button, whether you raise or not really depends on the actions of the players in front,...

Re: Five Card Draw: Have You Ever Seen?
I have to agree with Murakawa. IMO, if you're going to semi-bluff representing that you have a 4-card hand (range 2 pair to quads), against some opponents it might be right to put in a raise, and...

Drawing while heads up and all-in in 2-7 TD
Although I don't usually play the $11 2-7 TD on PokerStars, opting to work on my game in the $1.10 SnGs, this is a situation I find myself in often in 2-7 TD.
