Things about poker I never knew until I started playing FTP
1. Ax, Kx > AK, where x does not = A or K
2. Underpair > Overpair 3. Getting in with AA preflop = -EV 4. To calculate your odds of winning when getting it in on the flop as a coinflip, take your odds of winning (50%) and subtract your opponents odds (50%). 50 - 50 = 0%. yay! 5. To calulate your opponents odds of winning when getting it in on the flop as a coinflop, take their odds of winning (50%) and add your odds of winning (50%). 50 + 50 = 100%. yay! 6. Gutshots are the nuts, value push/call them on the flop and turn. 7. Your odds of someone else being dealt AA when you have KK = ~ 1 in 4.5. 8. Top set is approximately 65% to win on the flop versus bottom set. 9. Flush draws are teh nuts. Do not fold them. Ever. If I am in the pot. 10. Poker is not fun. At all. GODDAMNIT when Party shut down I decided I would buy into one more site, and I picked this godforaksen fjangf site over Doyles room, which come to find out later was the fishiest site ever apparently, gjoidsaijf;dsaf goddamnit I want to cut out FTP heart with a spoooon.

Re: Things about poker I never knew until I started playing FTP
Im a very paranoid person, I admit it, I think everyone is out to get me w/e w/e, people be trying to set me up. I do not play at full tilt so I do not have enough info to make a correct assumption on the riggedness or not. Maybe u should look at other angles besides, the site being rigged, and setting two players up to put as much money as possible into the pot.

I also learned that people shoving 85o for 25 big bets in MP with no limpers in front is massively +EV as long as hero is holding kings.

[/ QUOTE ] I hope Harrington will implement this great chapter of advanced strategy in his new book. He should make those things clear, since he used to fool us into believing that a FD was an underdog against a pair. Knew this couldn't be right.
