Re: another tipping question (sorry)
Hah! Good point, Bluegrass. It's about 1 pot in 100 that doesn't see the flop!
And in response to the earlier point about a 10% tip, I thought that was only applicable to tournaments, and even...

Re: another tipping question (sorry)
Thanks. That adds a lot of perspective. Again, it was never my intention to slight anyone or act outside of what is considered the norm. I simply don't play enough live poker to know what is...

Re: another tipping question (sorry)
Gobboboy, your blinds are a little bigger than mine, so I can understand tipping a dollar for winning those /images/graemlins/grin.gif And I would define significant as 10X BB.

another tipping question (sorry)
I play very little live poker, but when I do it's 1-3 NL at the Argosy in Indiana. Based on what I've observed, it seems that it is customary to tip the dealer after every hand regardless of pot...

C-Bet, keep firing?
I've seen it countless times, and am interested in your take on how to play this:
I'm in late position with a couple of limpers in front, pick up AK and raise. Inevitably I get a caller or two. ...

Re: .5/1 NL UB, weird action
I've rarely (if ever) come across a passive player who check raises the turn with any kind of draw. Based on your read, that seems awfully bold on his part. He also sounds like the kind of player...
