if you're looking for a good book on NL tourney's, get Harrington on Hold'em-- nothing but great reviews.

sw?Hard to explain in words. The numbers tell you the number of mines directly adjacent to that square (eg. the number 1 means that there is one mine directly adjacent). If you can figure out which square has a mine (like a 1 touching a corner), then you can figure out which don't.

On the flip side of this topic, do you think it is safe to assume that most people generally show cards opposite their playing style? i.e. if someone shows made hands, then he is usually loose and tends to bluff-- or if someone shows bluffs, then he is usually tight and rarely bluffs?

Since it just seems to be me and bdams19, this will be my last post unless things turn around. I just weighed in, and I'm down 1.4 lbs for the week.Height= 5' 10 1/2" Weight= 178.6 lbs Total Weight Loss Since 5/16 (12 Weeks) = 37 lbs Total Weight Loss Since 8/1 = 4.54 lbsFarewell :cry:

Phil seems to allude to this as well. "Depending on the situation, you'll hear me thinking on different levels. Against the Internet rookie Butch Dude, I'm thinking two levels deep. Against the 2001 WSOP Champion Chris Ferguson, I'm thinking four levels deep."Good read. Thanks Ocho11

This is usually my strategy as well. If that doesn't work, I'll type up someone else's article verbatim just to get me going, and then switch to my own paper. Sometimes it helps to start out with someone else's words, and then just change them later.

1. 3/51 = 1/17. After you've got dealt the first card, there are 51 remaining possibilities, and out of 3 will match your first dealt card.2. It depends on more factors, like the number of players in the pot, you've got bottom, middle, or top set, the texture of the flopshit, I missed this post. Yah, that's a lot easier.

In case you wanted to know how to figure this stuff out mathematically: Question 1: Odds of getting a pocket pair (I think this is what you meant).This is a combination question. See http://www.wtamu.edu/academic/anns/mps/mat..._tut57_comb.htm You'll also probably need this page for background info http://www.wtamu.edu/academic/anns/mps/mat...tut55_count.htmFirst, for the total number of 2 card hands (this will be our denominator later) The formula is nCr= n!/(n-r)!r!, where n is the number of objects (52 cards) and r is the specific grouping of objects (2 card hand).n= 52r= 2 Plugging in

I'm beginning to feel the same way. Good to hear your sticking to the program-- I get the feeling that most people quit.

???? :shock:

In the all-in fest that is Poker Superstars II, Ted Forrest hit a one outer against Doyle Brunson and said something like, "Wow Doyle, I almost feel bad."

Party Poker must know about this. I just sent them an email regarding the issue. I'll post the response when I get itsw

I saw a restaurant called "Ace Queen Suited." Then I looked again and saw it was A.Q.'s Subs. Too much SSHE

I just weighed in at Weight Watchers. I'm down 2.6 lbs since last Tuesday (8/2). Height= 5' 10 1/2" Weight= 180Total Weight Loss Since 5/16 (12 Weeks) = 35.6 lbs Total Weight Loss Since 8/1 = 3.14 lbs

No posts since Friday-- did everyone have a bad weekend?

Any relation to Boomhower?

No. Not at all. I think steroid abuse was/is a very VERY serious issue that needed/needs to be addressed. I'm not excusing Rafael Palmiero's actions in the least.BUT, to villify him and suggest that he doesn't deserve to be in the hall of fame? Or decry him as some kind of traitor to the game?The fact is, he happened to get caught. It's horribly naive to think that he's somehow WORSE than-say- Ivan Rodriguez. I'm a tigers fan, but I'll eat my hat (note to self: use phrase "eat my hate" more often... end note) if he didn't abuse steroids from time to time. What Raffy did was shameful, bu

I just weighed in at Weight Watchers. I'm down 1.9 lbs since last Tuesday (7/25). After averaging out over the past seven days, I figure I'm down .54 lbs since Aug 1st. Height= 5' 10 1/2"Weight= 182.6Total Weight Loss Since 5/16 (11 Weeks) = 33.0 lbsTotal Weight Loss Since 8/1 = .54 lbs

Y'all are nuts. Personally, his career really confuses me. Even though he was never the best player in the leauge, and rarely (if ever) the best player at his position, he is still one of 3 men in history to amass 3000 hits and 500 homeruns. And he's probably got another season or two of mediocre production left.EVERYBODY used steroids. You really think less than half the pitchers in baseball weren't juicing during the last decade? Come on... Think about a guy like, say, Eric Gagne. If he wasn't on steroids, I'll pee in a cup and drink it, then pee in a cup 2 hours later and drink it, ov

Okay Mr. Nopunk.

C'mon guys, show some class. Oh wait, this is FCP, nevermind.

Thanx for the response. Those schools are a bit too far away, but I think you gave me enough to know what to look for.
