Re: Hypothetical bubble situation, what\'s optimal

I agree that PF is incorrect (see above). Any other thoughts on postflop?

Re: Hypothetical bubble situation, what\'s optimal

Villain is a good player, hasn't been out of line so far, for the purpose of this discussion, we'll say no reads at all on Villain.

He can smooth call with a variety of hands (small-mid pairs, high cards) given stacks.

I know that the raise to 1K is NOT the correct play here, but IF you did end up in this spot, on a JJ4 flop,...

Re: Stars 6.50...awkward hand.

meh, I think its played well. I prefer smooth calling on flop to see what happens on turn, and betting any non-spade turn. Your spot gets really ugly if you raised on flop only to get reraised by...

To be honest, I will likely only make a few trades and hold them for a while. I am looking at a few particular companies to invest in.

Re: Deadlift, dizzyness, temporary deafness.

It probably has something to do with air pressure, not exhaling during lift, etc. I think deads are the most intense lift at the gym, at my physical peak I'd pop 3 25mg tabs of ephedrine, lift 495,...

Of course not, nor did I follow these guidelines religiously. I was simply giving a guideline, to map out an entire diet on this forum (or any other) would be dumb. I don't actually know if there...

Booted off Stars, this is the first time I've been booted from Stars, kinda sad. Of course, in my PP days this was a routine.

Re: ($5.50) TT in L5, push any non-ugly flop?

I don't know if I like the push, you are forcing him to play correctly by only calling with hands that beat you (and folding all hand that you beat). He will instacall you with Jx, 88, 33 and QQ+...

Re: 6-left, JJ facing open-push and a call

But, as of today,...

6-left, JJ facing open-push and a call

UTG is a decent, breakeven player over ~6K games, no reads on the caller except that he's been lucky so far. This is a $6 Turbo on stars.

Re: $6.5: Awkward spot with weak TP

The first hand is fine. The second is very bad, busting here is a disaster because of the tiny stack. You're in great shape to make it ITM, don't throw it away like this.
