Wow bravos, if I'm reading things right the only hand your opponent can beat is 84. I once had a guy call the river with 32o on a super-raggedy board. There was literally not a single hand he could beat.

Chopping equity FTW.

There was a four or a five on the board so the only way he could have have chopped was if I was holding precisely 32.

I think some people are trying to add me as a friend on facebook... but since I don't know many people by their real names, I haven't actually accepted them yet. If things like this matter to you, PM me and I'll fix it.

Default Re: question

Variance: On Thursday, I'm giving a presentation to my lab group. On poker. This presentation will be 1-2 hrs long. We're doing this because when no one has any new research to present, we'll do a "fun" hobby presentation in the group meeting time slot instead.

Brag: Then afterwards, we're having poker night at my place. I plan on cleaning up.

Beat: I've got to give a 1-2 hr presentation that is interesting, informative, and is at least sufficiently convincing to a bunch of Ph.D. candidates and an M.D./Ph.D. that I'm giving them good advice about how to play poker well. Allegedly, I'm an "expert" on this subject, although I think it's in my best interest if my PI doesn't think I'm quite as good as I actually am. Naturally, my goal is to make my lab mates think they are good (or at least better) at poker, but to still leave me with an overwhelming advantage.

Currently, my plan is to provide a little history of poker, an overview of the rules of hold 'em, lolmaha, stud, razz, TDL, lolmaha/8, stud/8, and, naturally, five card draw, followed by some general poker strategy. The strat section includes one slide on expectation value, one on playing tight, one on odds and outs, one on reading hands, one one bluffing and deception, and one on betting for value.

Here's my challenge to the forum. I'll pay a $10 bounty to the person who can design one slide's worth of a presentation that is the most convincing bad advice presented as good advice. If a whole slide's worth of misinformation is too much, I'll pay $5 to whomever lays out at least one good bullet point's worth of misinformation. Extra consideration is given to entries that are not in direct conflict with information I was planning on presenting and that flow well w/ the presentation.
