Calling all ins when the price is right

Is it ever correct in a tournament or sng to pass on calling an all in bet when the price is right? For example, someone goes all in on the flop and you are getting 3/1 pot odds but you are 2/1 to...

Re: Why do I tighten up when big stacked?

Re: Best book on hand reading, ranges etc

Thanks for the reply Sunny and I'll definately be looking out for Volume 2 when it's released. It is on my 'must buy' list along with Harrington's cash books.

Best book on hand reading, ranges etc

Just re-reading PNL and I love the REM sections (Range, Equity, Maximise). Just think that they could've been longer though as it's such an important subject and one that many players find difficult....

Re: Acceptable loss rate from the blinds

After 25,000 hands I'm losing 0.16 from the big blind and 0.11 from the small blind. The figures were higher but I've managed to bring them down by changing my game a bit. Wasn't sure if this was an...

Aggressive bankroll management

I know the accepted wisdom is that you should have 20 buy ins for NL cash games. Would it be considered a mistake to start taking shots when you have 11 buy ins if you accept that you will step back...

Re: Our old friends variance

I've got his book. Just going through a terrible run of bad beats but I've been through it before so I know it'll come to an end. It's just a matter of riding it out.

Re: what do these terms mean: \"blocking bet\", \"peel the flop\"?

TPTK out of position. $25nl

Villain is 27/13 over 123 hands and has won 75% of hands at showdown.
