Re: Am I a Fish 2?
I'm pretty good HU using the strategy you speak of. However, I can't get over that $650 raise PF. Player B called that huge raise, so I gotta give him credit for a big pair or at least two big cards....

New dealers have to count the cards, and the shuffle at least three...

Re: Am I a Fish 2?
First thing comes to my mind was the HUGE raise you made PF. There's only $225 in the pot PF and you raised $650? to me, this would look like you didn't want a call, and I may reraise all-in right...
