I'm planning on cashing, so it sorta matters to me, thanks though, figured it must be something like that.

I e-mailed support, we'll see what they say.

Tourneys. Nuff said.

I can't find that rule.

lol, not much of a guarantee then, is it?

Try contacting support, this might be a bug... I'm in the tourney too, just noticed the pool seems to be off...

Big fish in a small pond. Before you can truly be good, you need to learn to stow the ego and that there is always someone better.

Showing your hand doesn't violate the rule. If the other guy had seen it before and helped with the decision, it would.

A hand is not dead in a cash game if you deliberately show it.

If I have a runner change a few racks of 1s into hundreds for me, I'll leave a chip on top.

750 or something like that, buyin was 69+6. Thanks!

You don't have to do either. If you put the right number of chips in, the action is inferred. The only notable exception is the single chip rule (if you put in one chip of a large denomination, you must say raise or it is a call).I also have never played in a room where poker dealers pool tips. That happens frequently in pit games, but I've never seen it in poker.

How do you figure? Ever played live before? One of the fundamental rules of poker is keep your mouth shut when you are out of the hand.

Out 6th, oh well, got too short to have any leverage.

He had the 10 of spades, not the ace.

Down to 8 now. Just lost a pretty big pot, so I'm getting short, but wish me luck.

I would absolutely not have done what you did. Of course, I would have called a floorman over after the second time he did it, so he might not have done it a third time. Talking during a hand that you're not in is REALLY horrible etiquette and he was quite right to be mad at you (though, he's a dumbass for allowing other people to see his cards while someone is being put to a tough decision).

The guy you were up against was right. If you show someone your cards, you have to show the whole table.

Congratulate those guys. They are co-asshats of the month.

Your play was fine, just bad timing. I had a guy yesterday in a tourney raise all in from the small blind, I had KQ and called. He had AA. I couldn't figure out why he raised so much, but I guess he figured it would look like a steal to me and loosen my requirements, which is exactly what happened.

Not if the stacks are deep and/or the players are weak. KJs is a difficult hand to play, but flops like A Q 10 can hit so many different hands that you will almost always get paid off (especially by two pair).In a game with a bunch of bad players, I almost always try to keep the pots small. I'd prefer not to take the lead with a hand like KJ because it is very easy to get trapped.BTW, at the next available opportunity, I move to the other side of the LAG, especially if he raises a lot of hands preflop.Against some opponents, I actually might move in on the flop to make it look like a steal.

A lot of cardrooms have a third man walking rule where no more than two people can be up from the table at a time.

I agree with a lot of your list, though I wouldn't put Limit Holdem above PLO as far as variance, they aren't even close. Also, NL can have really high variance, and I think that limit actually might have lower variance (I think the reason that we believe limit has high variance is low limit hold 'em, but I don't think that the variance is necessarily that high).

lol, morons. Make copies of that article and give it out to everyone at the table when you sit to play.
