Re: I need a laptop that can take a beating...
Fair response. Obviously the best measure is to treat the thing better, and it's definitely a priority, especially in light of my old laptop breaking. I didn't really care at first since it only cost...

Re: I need a laptop that can take a beating...
If you're referring to the Toughbook, basically it's just price. I know that this is a great option for what I'm looking for, but wanted to see if there were any other options closer to my price...

I need a laptop that can take a beating...
So I bought a cheap Dell laptop about a year ago. I used the computer pretty much solely to play poker, but I beat the absolute hell out of it. My roomates use it too, so it probably gets twenty to...

Re: NL400$ A5 Rivered Two Pair
I was villain in the hand. I don't know if it's your sample size (I have ~600 hands against you) or your stats are just wrong, because I'm nowhere near an 11/8.

Re: Theory on AT
Terrible, and I know you hate hearing it, but stop limping with semi-strong Aces pre-flop because it puts you in crappy situations like this all the time.
I hate the call here, even if you think...

Re: Poker Ethics Question
1. This has nothing to do with ethics.
2. You do whatever is best for YOU. If there are three people left in a tourney and the pay-out is something like $100, $75, $20 (I know, this doesn't...

Re: what\'s the perfect amount here?
Your call makes it $450 in the pot with $565 behind. Seems like he's pricing his draw and seems like you've got a hand you're not going to lay down.
So assume he's got 11 or so outs (flush and...

Re: AJ facing a flop min checkraise
Whenever I face a min-raise with a semi-strong hand like this, I call and re-evaluate the next street. Anyone saying you can't call the min-raise unless you plan on calling the turn is wrong. The...

Re: 2/4 NL weird bets scare me
Hand 1: I personally fold the flop. There's a good chance that he's just trying to take the pot down with A of diamonds, and drawing to the second best one card flush is always a bad idea. I don't...

You need to completely change your way of thinking of how to handle monsters, regardless of whether you're in position or not. Instead of slow playing and trying to get opponent to hit a hand or make...

Re: Top 2 vs. lagtard.......
I probably puke and call, hoping that he's tilting and spewing because of the history. This is so borderline that it really depends on my read of villain.
Your flop bet is too small, especially on...

Re: I SHOULD HAVE LOOKED AT STACK SIZES PF!
I like the turn lead as well to figure out if you've got the best hand. If called, I'd block river, fold to a push. I'm more likely to play the hand exactly as you did, but I do sort of like the turn...

Re: TPTK fired 2 shells, Value bet the river?
No value bet. Check/call. You have way overrepresented your hand, and it looks like you have a set or two-pair, so he may be calling you down with a better hand.
Raise pre-flop and lead flop. Your...

Re: TT faces (too?) heavy action II
Against a button raise and the small blind's cold call, you are so far ahead of both villains' ranges that you need to re-raise preflop. Make it $70. Even if you only call, lead the flop, or you end...
