Re: Live straddle.

Re: Standard with a set? - Borgata 40/80
If you know the button is aggressive and is likely to raise then I like your initial call but once it gets back to you raising is definately the play. People are just peeling here because the pot is...

Preflop against a Maniac.
The Maniac is in the Hijack. He raises almost everyhand. Very aggressive on the flop and turn but strangely turns passive on river unless he has the nuts. Gives a lot of free showdowns(mostly because...

Great game. It is loose and aggressive with a couple semi maniacs, and the rest just loose and dumb.
