Why do you want a response in English when you aren't even literate?

"Do" to the fact you aren't literate, Howard doesn't care.

Limping the sb when it is folded to you with AQ with 10000 in chips at 300/600 = +EVOpen folding to an LP raise with AQ with 10000 in chips at 300/600 = +EV

2 kings + 3 queens = 5 outsIf this is your worst beat ever you have a long way to come and should not be playing 5/10 nl. Shorthanded nl is a very volatile game, and if you didn't want to lose whats in front of you then re raise pre flop or raise the flop. The way you played the hand is fine, so stop crying. Complaining about getting it in with 5 outs and one pull of the deck as your opponents only win is sad.

The deal making is all a direct function of utility. It is very simple to see why some people don't want to play it out and why some people do based on the utility they assign to certain pay levels. These deals are often very heavily weighted to the advantage of somebody who places low utility on last place and high utility on top three places, as there are very often people who assign high utility to anything other than last place, as 5-10k pay jumps represent significant portions of money. It all boils back to the very standard example of would you rather be given 1 million dollars or a tick

A coinflip by definition is a 50/50 chance right?with a sample size of 40 iterations like this you have won 15/40 or 3 out of 8, or 37.5%. Given that a pair vs overcards is not preciesly 50/50 and given that your sample size is so miniscule, what is your problem? This seems to be very correct in terms of a short term expectancy. An argument could be made for 10/40 not being unlikely over such a tiny sample size.I don't understand what you're complaining about? If you run these numbers into the long run they will work out how they are supposed to.Do you have know concept of statistics? In a coi

put in the dead cards 6 random hands that are trash that people would throw away like 63o T7o 26o and then run AK vs 33 or 66 or 77

Yes that is exactly what I am! Are you retarded? I was merely pointing out that this is just one pathetic bad beat story masked by the fact that he was writing an article about skill versus luck in poker.I am well aware he got it in ahead, don't worry about it. I am pretty good at rudimentary math. I was only pointing out that when he tells his story he doesn't point out that he started the hand well behind, only that he got sucked out on. Listening to bad beat stories, especially those that somehow get published in espn magazine is like ingesting poison.

Bill Simmons writing about poker is like me writing about lawn bowling, he has no idea.He fails to understand he overcame a 3-1 disadvantage preflop to flop two pair on AK. I can't believe that was published in ESPN magazine. I want 5 mins of my life back.

can I ask why you gave somebody 1st place money playing 5 handed?

Quit poker. P.S. (and this is giving you the benefit of the doubt)2s 7h 8h 2c 2d vs 9h Th How do you have 23 outs? 9 for the flush draw8 - 2 for repeat counts = 6 for the straight draw9 + 6 = 15 outsGrade 1 was a tough one, keep trying!

Luckily you are probably terrible at poker and will have your whole afternoon to look forward to!gl

You can ask but they aren't obliged to answer unless it is a pot limit game, which is not spread in any Ontario casinos that I know of. The dealers keep track of pot for rake in raked games but say at 1/2 nl with $5 max and 10% once a pot exceeds 50 dollars the 5 chip is just taken out then the dealers dont care. Every game I have heard or play in higher than that is session fees.

The buy in was ten frequent player points.BAD BEATS BAD BEATS.

Juha Helppi jams with ATo into KK for his tournament while the chip leader. Dear Phil, Here is your bracelet on a silver platter, I am too tired to play well anymore. Sorry for making you stay up so long, I may as well have just quit two hours ago since I was going to screw up anyways.Love Juha
