Re: Foxwoods this w/e?
Just for the record, I was there Monday, and it wasn't super busy. There was never more than 15 people on the wait list for 1/2 NL, and when it got that big, they opened a new table. Less crowded...

Re: Reasonable Rake/Barcelona Casino
Is this No Limit? Foxwoods charges $10 per hour for $1/$2 blinds, so you're doing better than that. If you assume the maximum of $4 is taken from raked pots, then 25 hands per hour * $4 = $100 per...

Re: Am I the worst razzer ever?
I thought the second hand was played well. Your cards are exceptionally live, so the call on 4th is justified even though the pot wasn't re-raised on 3rd.
The first hand, I'd consider folding...

Re: Razz - Anyone find a fold here on 5th?
You can't be sure you have the best hand on 3rd. If villian is paying attention to dead cards, there's a good chance you're behind.
If villian has (A4) in the hole, villian is >51% to win.
(A3):...

2) I like raising on 3rd, but re-raising is tossing a coin. The villain is either a LAG or announcing (and overplaying) that he has (A2) in the hole, and you are literally a 50/50 equity...

Re: Razz - 4 & 5 street play/ river bet.
Forgot to say, I like your 4th street bet. People don't check-raise often in razz (in case were afraid of the A3 slow playing), but even if he did, it wouldn't be that bad because you want to thin...

Re: Razz - 4 & 5 street play/ river bet.
just wanted to point out that you _could_ be behind on 5th, and you're probably only a little ahead. For example, if villian has 5 2 in the hole, you're a little behind:

Re: Razz: a T low.
