Enjoy,

My birthday!

I'm not sure what I'm doing, but if I'm home I'll be in.

I'm the first one registered! No set-over-set this time though, thanks! Let's see some more people in this one! Though I must admit, starting shorthanded was kind of fun.

If someone would be willing to trade $11 on Stars for $11 on Full Tilt I would be willing to play. PM me if you want.

I'm in!

Hmmm. this is my mom's bday.

Also, there is a chance I could be pwning the USPC at this time.

On that note, I hope I'm not defending my title.

I set it up for you but won't be able to play, I'll be in Brazil all next week and won't have time.

Poor me

i'll try to get in on this. sounds fun.

I'm moving into my new place tomorrow and I won't have internet until the 8th. Goddamnit.

Bump

I have class tonight until 8:30 and then I'm supposed to be tutoring somebody in the class for our Mid-Term next week, but I'm gonna cancel the tutoring session so I can get my own version of the lesson in poker.

Now that school has started back up I only get to play one day a week if I'm lucky.

I'll be playing

FCP tourney regulars, you guys playing?

Im in.

I'll probably play as well.

I'll see how I feel after ball hockey. Last week was a little late for this tired ole fool. 4 hours sleep just isn't enough these days.

I might play. My plan to finish off the rest of my Stars roll after withdrawing most of it hit a snag when I went deep in an MTT. Join this tournament too if you want. Barrraggee....

I'll be there

I'm liking Stars/.
Not sure I can properly express why
Tourney formats are better, for one
THe play feels more advanced at comparable buy-ins.
Not sure Why I'd like that though
Right now playing only for fun, not BR building; so I probably like playing what feels like a more reasonable game

Prety sure I"ll get killed tonight.

Im going to win our post flop coin flip this week!

I'm in to defend the crown.

How did it go in the USPC?

I have to run an errand after work but if I get home in time, I'll play

If I am around tomorrow night can I play even if I am just an everyday lurker of this board?

:shysmile:

Fo sho

Just saw this. Great idea and I'd play except Weeds is on at that time. I love that show.

DVR that poo.

I'm in

Watch while you play if you have a computer in the same room as the TV..or Tivo it..or skip it

I don't know if this get's enough traffic, but I withdrew my stars account couple days ago. $11 on UB for $11 on Stars anyone?

Hey Goheels, I got your PM but I don't think mine work. It's weird, I send them but the don't go into my sent box and I don't think people receive them. If you would like to do the transfer that'd be great, but I'd need to change the info in this thread.

tskillz...send to jas0604 (zero 6 zero 4, joseph) on UB and I'll send it on over to stars. what's your info?

on stars im tskilz187 (one L stupid typo), ummm I forget what other info you need. From brockport, ny first name Tim

Alright, I sent, should be getting to you shortly.

got yours and I just sent. It's not quite as fast on stars and it is on UB, but it's on the way. Let me know when you get it.

BTW, I got your PM just fine.

Nice. Then screw that not working PM business.

just got it, thanks see ya later tonight, gl getting 2nd

thanks
I'll need it

I played a few sats but unsuccesful. The blinds go up like crazy and i was unfortunate to have AKs run into KK.

No worries.. always next year.. plus the strat tourney is more important, lolll.

Welcome to my world. LOL.

I'm on donkament tilt right now.. beware of my wrath.

EDIT: Gonna sit this one out, GL all, I'll probably rail still.

oof tough hand..

what did you think he had when he made such a big raise?

I bet less on flop and bet the turn and fold river to big re-raise..if had been called on flop and turn on that board

I thought maybe he had top pair and decent kicker, or maybe 10,8.

Even considered he was maybe just trying to push a weak/tight player out of the hand.

As played I probably go broke there too, putting him on A2 or A5, calling my flop bet with a piece and then pushing his two pair. I'd assume AT would raise at some point in the hand. A passive T that picked up two pair on the turn is also possible. 2T5r is a dream come true for a set, no reason to do anything but slowplay.

However I would bet the turn to see what's going on. I don't think he calls another bet with a weak holding like A2. We could really narrow his range with that bet.

agreed.

Throw:

on river...

Your thought?

"He's betting with an Ace and folding/checking too often otherwise" ?

JAS????????????

I like the price.
So we aren't folding.

If we push, we'l make it 1900 : 600 and any K/Q calls., obviously

It's a stange bet that protects little but still seems committal.

I think we just call
And fold turn UI to a push

Those kind of plays by SB's mess with me

More weak play from Outlaw4033.

First some self-criticism.

Preflop: Of the three choices I have, I now think calling is the worst. This is eather a raise/fold situation, correct?

Flop: Nobody took a stab at it, so I figured I would since I caught a decent piece. Looking back should I have bet more to chase out any draws?

Turn: I check to keep the pot small (That whole small pots for small hands thing, right?)

River: Plenty of hands out there that beat me, and I'm probably behind, but I'm still not conviced the fold was the right move? Help?

Thanks for the cheap game guys, it was definately a learning experience. Hope I get to do it again soon.

Congrats JAS...... nice come back.

I didn't even think he had two pair...I thought he had something like AQ and AK..

He cont/ bet the flop, shut down on the turn, and finally hit on the river...I figured that was my best shot at stacking him, although an open push might look like a bluff too...

you're too harsh on yourself here.
Nothing wrong.
If you had more chips, bet 300 on turn

Preflop was correct.
I think you're too short to raise to 200

I think there are other ways to play this, but yours is fine

Others opinions?
