I remember a few months back bart and dave stating that they were going to have a table that can play omaha games on the show. Just wondering what happend to all that?

[Jive Dadson]

Dave is not just wrong. He's loud wrong.

Once when Barry Greenstein was on the show, Bart trotted out that business about either having nothing or a big hand. Greenstein dismissed it offhand, saying, "Yeah but you don't know which."

The key to the sitch is that you need to bluff with the right frequency. If you bet the pot on the end, you should be bluffing half as often as you've got the big hand.

[Jive Dadson]

Now Bart is agreeing with him.

[Jive Dadson]

You don't give "so much information away" if you bluff with the right frequency. Is this so hard to understand?

They have the table cameras adapted for Omaha, but last I heard them mention it, there was some sort of software issue.

The Tuch is Correct....Bob Ciaffone is an instructor at www.pokerschoolonline.com.......He is a tourney instructor. I would rather listen to Tuch who spends 5 nights/week giving opinions on correct play, rather than Bob who would rather give his opinion by books only. No disrespect to Bob as he is a well know tourney player. I just happen to think that Tuch is "New School" and Bob is "Old"

You haven't seen people lose "hundreds of thousands of dollars" not value-betting hands on the river that will not be called by lesser hands more often than they will be called by hands that win. Your argument is (or was a couple of minutes ago) that not betting light hands gives away information on other hands. That's not the case.

What school is Barry Greenstein?

[Jive Dadson]

No one is saying you should not bet if you think you will frequently be called by a lesser hand.
