DD, one more:

5 people limp to you on in a full, loose passive live game (say 8/16 limit). you have the button. what is your limping range and what is your raising range?

assume blinds would not 3 bet w/o a premium hand.

Kit, why would you ever assume that they would.. especially live?

How do you find peace of mind making fold vs call-down decisions when facing Turn raises from unknown and known passive players?

Raising: 99+, AKo, A8s+, K9s+, 87s+, T8s+ (assume any suited cards higher than the listed ones for the given gaps)

Limping: 22-88, Ax (suited or not), K8o, Kxs, Q5s, J7s, T7s, T8o, J9o, Q8o, 23s, 46s, 58s, 69s. Hope that range makes sense I tried to give the lower bound for the different gaps and ranks. Basically huge range.

Fold often and try to feel good about it. If this was a statistic I could easily look up it would be closely correlated to my tiltiness / how I've been running. You start calling more and more when running bad, feeling they take shots at you or they can't have it again, but they do. Fold and fold and fold some more is probably right but its a work in progress.

DD, do you thus consider folding Ax offsuit to be a leak here? if its been profitable for you i think i should add it to my list of button hands...

Two questions that are somewhat related:

Let's say you step up to a new limit, or you're playing a new or difficult game. How do you accurately determine if you're a winner in the game? Assuming of course that you don't want to wait many thousands of hands for your winrate to stabilize.

When you're analyzing your play, how do keep from becoming results-oriented? In other words, how do you definitively say "I played that right, even though I lost" or even more difficult "I played that wrong, even though I won"?

Thanks.

Not a big leak at all but if you play well I think you can sneak in here on the button in a big multiway pot. Just proceed with caution obviously.

Round 3 if you will DD:

1. How has playing other poker games other than LHE affected your LHE game in any positive ways that come to mind

2. How'd you come up with the name Death Donkey(if you already said ignore this)

3. When you sit down at a new table with all unknowns, do you give any of them any credit for being any good or do you consider them idiots until proven otherwise?

4. In live play, how many hands or orbits can you tell who is any good at the table.

5. Pick to win the MLB world series this year?
