I'm a small stakes winnar [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. I took too long but had a phone call in the middle. The scenarios sucked and I probably called too much or raised too much or both. Go back to my reply to suzzer yesterday about shooting for 200nl. Guess I'm on target, lol.

What about the second to the last question from Rounders? ez shove right?

That rounders question, I actually said call. I don't even remember the hand from the movie, but I'm thinking a flush that overbets won't call a shove for 30k more or whatever on a paired board. Playing 500 BBs deep, I don't think anything besides the nuts is calling a shove, so no real value in it. But you can't fold either.

But mostly, the question said 'you put him on a flush' and I don't think there's any way a flush is calling that deep on a paired board.

Yeah, I said get in on the J62 board.

What did you get? Hopefully an egg mcmuffin, hashbrown, and OJ.

The T5o tournament call was one I thought could be argued either way. I said fold, but I'm guessing they're saying the "right" answer is call. Something along the lines of Harrington's "fly swatting" principle.

Beat: Didn't know it was timed and was talking to people on gChat. Probably could have broken 140.

Post your answers?

I took it again so I could go faster and got 129. I guess that makes me Noah "Exclusive" Boeken.

Sam's Town donkament. $50+20r, 40 entrants, 10 remaining, pays five spots.

Hero is 2nd in chips with about 45k. BB busted Hero's steal (Q2o called by ATo) on the previous orbit and has about 30k. Most stacks are in the 15-20k range, with three under 10k.

Hero has A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

blinds 3k/6k (lol donkaments)
<font color="#666666">UTG folds</font>, UTG+1 calls all-in t4000, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, Hero completes, BB checks.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(t12k main, t4k side)</font>
<font color="red">Hero bets t6k</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to t17k</font>, Hero ???

Read: As usual, everyone including BB hates Hero for (use Bennett Brower-style air quotes) "raising too much" and "stealing pots" and "refusing a 10-handed save where all but spots 1-3 only got their buy-in back." BB called Hero's open-shove from the SB last orbit with ATo after tanking for about 30 seconds, which is long in this game. Hero showed Q2o. SB had also shoved QTo from his SB into Hero's BB over several limpers earlier in the tournament. QTo&gt;55&gt;Hero's ATo.

Does that donkey test try and tilt you, then deduct points off of your score on the level of tilt you achieve?
