how do you guys approach the deep stack tournaments? what do you do differently and what do you keep the same? I know I am not being very specific here but just wanted to hear some thoughts on this subject.

sounds like it would be interesting, as long as moneymaker doesn't say anything. -

how could i have played this better?
puma12 replied to Wandigo's topic in No Limit Texas Hold'em Cash Games
I really think you should have bet out on the turn. I probably would have played it the same way in the moment but in hindsight it always seems like I am not aggressive enough on the turn when I have a made hand. I know you are afraid to chase people out but a lot of people will pay for the flush draw ( or even the straight draw) with a paired board. A smallish bet that keeps them in the pot but doesn't look extremely suspicious would suffice. IMO at least. lets here some more because I have trouble too getting max value from some of these big hands -
dan, why do all the pros hate barry greenstein?

if anybody is interested Barry is speaking at the university of illinois at urbana/champaign on thurs 11/3. 7:30 pm, location is at follinger hall. I am not exactly sure what he is going to be addressing though, since he is an alum from the math dept he might just be talking about math. hopefully not though. figured i'd check it out anyways. -
is this even close to being the right play?

do you think you would call if the board changed dramatically? like the board pairing on the river? normally I don't like to be in there with the low calling big raises and reraises but it seems that when there is a dramatic change regarding the high end of the pot the raises signify a battle for the high rather than the low (unless you are just quartered all the way.Hope I am explaining this right. Maybe I have been folding because I have not seen the changes on the board correctly, rather I have just looked at the bets.just trying to see how people evaluate the strength of their low

didn't see the hi lo forum until after I posted and didn't know if I could move it so...

I have run into this situation a couple of times and I just cant seem to figure out what the correct play is. I will have the nut low made and on the river there will be a bet in front of me and a reraise behind me and then then the first player will raise again, putting himself all in but the other player still has a huge stack to play with. How do you guys determine whether or not you are splitting the pot and whether or not it is worth it? lately it seems that I fold when I would have gotten half the pot and called when am quartered. When is it correct to fold the nut low?
