  1. I used to play in a poker league a few years back that was held in Mississauga. There was a group of 20 players that would meet once a month and play a couple of tournaments that had a leaderboard structure for finishing place. The leaderboard was updated monthly and the top ten finishers on this leader board would compete at the end of the year for the "Champions Title".There was a minor ($20) and a major tournament ($50) played each month and the turnout was great. In the second year of this league we had around 70 players total, although not all would play every tournament. I have wanted to get this league started again but the group I used to play with has essentially vanished into fat air.Would the FCP community, that lives in the GTA area, like to start something similar? At the moment I am just entertaining the idea and we would of course need to work on a location, dates, etc...If anyone is interested please post in this thread and let's see what can happen.Thanks,JoeyFinngars

  2. play at the old niagara casino, they should have 1/2 nl 100 max buy in there. I haven't been there in a while so it may have changed. look them up and give them a call.before you head down call and put your name on the waiting list. they'll hold your name for about an hour.
    I usually call ahead because it can be a bitch waiting for a seat otherwise. There will be a small group of us with only myself and one other guy that want to play poker so this will be towards the end of the nigth (4am or so).
  3. Hand 1: folding on the flop to that bet, no point in calling hoping he has a hand like KQ. Just wait for a better spot.Hand 2: It is possible he is holding a hand that flopped two pair or better being an aggro player but then again he might just have a weak Jack. I check, call a flop bet as well as the turn. His river bet makes it seem like he may have QJ but he could be making a move with a weaker J since Hero checked to him. I would do my best to keep this pot as small as possible from flop to river in order to showdown in this marginal spot.Hand 3: Probably playing this one similar to the hand above by keeping the pot small and hopefully getting to a cheap showdown.In both hand 2 & 3 they are vulnerable but most likely good majority of the time against the villian. Keeping the pots small is the key to ensuring when you are behind you lose as little as possible. Wait for the times when you are well ahead to make the pots large against this type of player. No sense risking a coog portion of your staking the way ahead or way behind situations. Winning small pots off the aggro villian adds up over the duration of the game.
