  1. Ur all a bunch of jopkers. Gank played 20 at once for a prop bet. $500 he couldn't profitably 20 table the $6 turbos. I beleive he played 25 and won 7 of them, so he won the bet.He played more again later for fun.Gank owns, etc.
  2. Are you retarted? Do you know anything about how Dan Harrington plays? Dan Harrington is tight-super aggresive. Sneezing on a pot post flop against Harrington will result in a rather large reraise most of the time. And when short stacked or short handed, Harrington is a mad man. Just because he plays quality hands preflop does not make him weak-tight. You are just wrong.
  3. If your friend 4 tables 2-4 NL for 5-8 hours a day and still only makes about 2.5 buy ins a week, he is probably either incredibly stupid or a losing player
  4. without reading anything other then the question:1/3 of the time u changed u had the right door at first pick. So its zero percent that you pick the right door. 2/3 of the time the right door is in the other two. So, all of that 2/3 of the time you get the right door. So, when you change doors, 1/3 the time you will never pick the right one, and 2/3 the time you will pick the right door all the time. So, you should pick the right door when you change doors 2/3 the time, right?-Jeff Garza

  6. I know who Hall is and have played with him a number of times, especially heads up and shorthanded. He is a loose player with an interesting strategy that is very effective in looser ring games with weak players in them. However, despite the giant stack he frequently has I dont think Hallinggol is the biggest winner in the game. I would say nearly half Hall's stack at a given point is the result of add ons. On the numberous occasions in which he pushes all in, he adds 2000 chips, one buy in, to his stack, which obviously adds up a great deal over the night.I personally think the best 10/20 NL
  7. Well for MTTs, I played in the $150 stars wedns last week and made 2nd for $9300, that was quite a misebut including sit and goes, ive won slightly more. I've been playing in lots of HU sit and goes and recently decided to make a run at it and play this guy id been crushing in $1000 hus in a 5K pokerstars HU stt, and since then ive played in 9 of them and won 6 times... I just beat bigslick789 HU in one of those about 15 minutes ago, and I am very very pleased, to say the least =)
  8. I think you want to bet the flop because there are very few hands willing to play against that board. As a result, its ok to steal on such flops too, since its not likely u are going to be called by a hand worse then top pair anyway. Once you get called on the flop though, you are almost certainly beat, and I would try to check it down unless i hit two pair. If i got action with the king, im gone
  9. I disagree completely with what m0st of you are saying. NEVER move in? No, that is completely wrong. In many situations it is correct to move in and gamble because you have the proper expectation of winning the pot outright. However, in a situation like this you clearly do NOT want to move all in because it seems very unlikely that you will pick up the pot.I think reraising with the flush draw can be a very very powerful move at the right moment. For example, my style in higher stakes cash games is very loose, and I make continuation bets to try to pick up the pot the majority of the time afte
  10. Oh yeah, and I believe that a 16 year old could make 2k in 6 months for SURE. i mean if u made one buy in a day by running a few tables for a couple hours in like 50 cent a dollar, ud make well over 2 grand in 6 months.I personally was lucky that I had already accumulated a good deal of money playing Magic at the pro level over last summer, so when I started playing like 5 months ago and set up an online account, I could afford to lose the $500 or so before I got a hang of sit and goes and tourneys. Anyway, I started on Pokerstars March 9 with $200 and was lucky enough to win 3K in the second
  11. I'm 17 years old and live in MA, and ive found it basically impossible to find any real life games to play in. It seems like 75% of the guys in my high school play poker, but its mostly stuff like $10 tourneys... Its kind of difficult to get enthusiastic about some $10 poker game when youve just played in the 10-20 NL on poker stars , lost or won several thousand dollars, and not thought any better of it. My point is, there dont seem to be many games in real life accesible to the more serious poker player without going into a casino. I suppose thats fair, underaged gambling is illegal and rig
  12. Anyone remember this south park????"If you dont like AMERICAN, you can geeeeet out"Classic.Also, I believe not only that private citizens should be allowed to carry guns, but also that they should have the right to carry grenades, double barreled machine guns, and samauri swords.Because, there is of course only way to protect oneself from deadly weapons:deadLIER weapons!
  13. Folding pocket queens against a player with 10 big blinds is clearly atrocious, so the only choice is to call or raise. Basically, it comes down to this- are you willing to fold if the big stack moves all in?There is a problem here. If the big stack will only get involved with QQ, KK, AA, or AK, there are more AK combinations then the other 3, especially since you have two queens. If you are willing to fold and just call, and he moves all in, you are risking folding to a hand like AK(or JJ or worse if he stinks!) that your all in probably would have pushed out of the pot. Clearly this is not o
  14. Yeah obviouslySomeone eliminated from a tournament claims they lost to runner-runner after trapping their opponent with the best handThis is a highly unusual thing to hearI heavily doubt its untrue.
  15. I am a winning player in 5/10 NL and 10/20 NL on stars, and have faced this phenomenon occasionally. When I encounter players like this, I try to get on the left of them, and always take the flop with the lead and position. Its a HUGE difference to be vs a bad maniac and a good one. Against a bad player, the above strategy, coupled with tight and aggresive play (with plenty of isolation moves) is enough to deal with the average maniac. However, if ur maniac is a skilled player projecting an image to get paid off postflop, it sounds like u are up against a really strong, dangerous player. Ther
