i think it is a good spot for a check call. you are either way ahead or way behind int this spot and given the few times i have seen the grinder on tv at wpt final tables he is always looking to steal pots. i think check call turn and check call river is the best play here to get the most value out of your hand he fires multi barrel bluffs alot and if we bet he cant call he can push and that makes for a tough decision. i really like check calling here.

ok i read like the first 5 of these and everyone is saying fold or reraise to 10k. i agree with it being a fold or raise situation in which i think it is a fold spot cause it just isnt worth it unless you're image is so tight that when you do come in with hand there is no way you are getting action which is hardly ever the case. however, why 10k if pot is 6500 and the raise is 2200 i think 8700 gets the same respect as 10k and it saves you some chips if you are reraised. doesn't sound like alot when you have 220k but it could add up if you make a few of these plays that backfire. it also m

it is not a good idea at all to play on markers. the interest rates are ussually quite high on them. if you can afford to play then use cash it is always the best option.

i'm in a deepstacks right now. took a brutal beat when a guy moved in with top pair which was a 10 and i held kings. he paired his kicker on the turn. still hanging tough though and have accumullated some of those chips back. if anyone wants to rail me today my name on pokerstars is sm9145 -

i made my first deposit on fcp the other day and since i am a charter member i got a nice bonus. the only thing is i can't figure out where to find out how much has been released into my account.

i play just about everything. my bread and butter is nl hold em cash games. when i a m running bad or just bored with the game a change it up though. my 2nd game would be pl omaha followed by limit omaha hi/lo. not much for any stud games. tournament i play any and all games in them. but i try to play only a few a week cause the variance on them is so high i feel cash games are the way to build a bankroll. for sessions i play 8-10 hours if it is a live game. if it is an online game i play like 3-4 hours.

i would raise representing 4 to a flush and a low draw. this will give you a chance to to scoop the pot if the a club falls on a later street.

i figured it was a coin flip but i was looking to double my stack up so i could make some moves instead of playing all in poker . also i figured if i doubled here i would be in good shape to win the tournament as the chip leaders i felt i had a good read on them. it has been a while though since i first posted this and looking back now i think it should have been a laydown. i think i let the size of the pot determine if i was going to call or not. well thanks for the feed back it was much appreciated.

the wpt is coming to the borgata soon and i was just curious as to how many of you were going to be there for it. i live about 40 minutes away so atlanticc city is like playing at home for me. i plan on playing the smaller buy in events as i don't have a big enough bank roll for the 10k but maybe i can get my way in through a satellite. let me know if any of you are going to be there maybe i can get to meet some of you.

i signed up yesterday but i only got $10. but i came in 6th in a $5 tourney and turned it into $102. then i played 1-1 nl for a half hour and won $240. thanks for the start. my name is sm9145111 on there.i am also interested in when the fcp freeroll is going to take place?

there is not much traffic tourney wise but all the tourneys are guaranteed money. as for cash games the biggest game they have is .25/.50 nl and on the weekends they get a 1/2 nl game going. it is easy players as most tables are full of beginners so they are soft. finding a game though is tough.
-
i know the fields are huge in almost every event this year which makes it tough to even cash in these tourneys. however i did expect daniel to be doing a little better. i put him second on my fantasy team because of his points championship last year and i figured he would be concentrating on his play for the month and a half of the wsop. it would be nice to see him get in that zone that he knows he can get in. i remember reading last year that he predicted a win in a wpt event and then went out and won the thing. maybe a win would be a little tougher because of the size of the fields but

yeah they run daily satelites and super satelites. just go to www.theborgata.com to find out when they start running them it should be soon though.

change your game. if you play 3-6 limit hold em then try to learn something else like omaha hi/lo or something. that is what i do and i feel like it benefits me because when i am running bad in nl hold em i go to an omaha hi/lo game. a complete poker play should have some sort of knowledge in every game that is offered anyway.
