Re: Ludicrously high ante, flat betting structure.

In order to see the showdown, you're going to have to call more than one bet. That 10:1 or 16:1 or whatever is a mirage.

Ok? This doesn't make sense to me, no offense. At some point in the hand...

Re: Ludicrously high ante, flat betting structure.

Which leads to your second question. If the betting were to end on third street, then you might call with about anything. There are four more betting rounds, however, and you need to show down the...

Ludicrously high ante, flat betting structure.

Couple of quick theoretical questions I'm fairly sure I know the answers to, but not certain.

Room near where I live spreads stud with a very non standard structure. The ante and the bring in are...

Re: General Advice for Fishy Non-Standard Game?

I was concerned about the "older" crowd at Rockingham.

Well, it's largely older degenerate gamblers who used to show up at a near abandoned horse racing track to bet otb and decided to play poker....

Re: Ron Paul is on The Colbert Report tonight (Wed)

Comparing Ron Paul to Al Sharpton? Silly.

Probably. Comparing their relative impacts on elections, however, completely accurate.

Sorry. I'd like to live in a world where politician's ideas...

Re: General Advice for Fishy Non-Standard Game?

Rockingham Park (Salem NH) is closer, but not as good as Seabrook in almost every aspect.

I find them largely identical, really. Seabrook has nicer decor, but it's absolutely not nice enough to...

Re: Ron Paul is on The Colbert Report tonight (Wed)

You have just shown everyone how woefully out of touch you are. Ron Paul is already having an impact on US politics.

Of course he isn't.

Is this your first election or something? He's having...

So my question is: what are the specific strategy adjustments necessary to beat this game?

A pulse. Honestly, there are no adjustments necessary to beat that game. The flattened turn and river...

What's stopping you?

The fact that the people who decide compensation have an obvious conflict of interest as has been discussed already.

Re: Women Are Not Oppressed.

This is not true although it's an easy knee-jerk response.

No, it's a completely accurate response that men generally don't want to accept so they can feel better about it.

Re: Short-sighted justice

There is a huge difference between motive and intent. Try again.

What are you talking about? Try making an actual argument instead of spouting random semantics that don't apply at all. Thanks.

Re: CEO Pay

Sheep without a shephard are wild animals. How are you going to get ANY value out of them?

A car without gasoline can't go two miles. Therefore a gallon of gasoline is worth more than a BMW.
