SlapStick 0 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 Where the heck is the Olympics baseball semifinal (USA vs. Cuba) on TV?

Not a vast difference though.There's a huge difference imo. Shoving turn folds out JJ-KK, which may call one barrel after flatting in position (not everyone 4bets JJ+ in position preflop - I know I don't). I think check/calling the turn is really bad to be honest (you don't even have odds I think). You also give him a chance to fold out bad aces that he may have defended.Edit: Just noticed stack size on villain. I probably fold preflop with that stack size (and if you do 3bet, make it a little bigger), but postflop is standard imo. Link to post Share on other sites

I probably fold preflop with that stack size, but postflop is standard imo.I don't see him folding many aces to the turn shove. He isn't folding AK/AQ/AT/A9, so you're hoping he folds AJ (maybe occasionally a lower suited ace) or he has JJ-QQ (maybe occasionally KK).If we check, he might check behind with an ace, and allow us to draw for free. He might bet $10, let us draw cheaply and then pay off the last ~$12.It's closer than you think. Link to post Share on other sites

Suited_Up 2 Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 I am looking through rakeback and first time deposit bonus sites trying to find a deal. When they say that the first time deposit on full tilt is deducted from the rake back does that mean that what I make in rakeback is just given to me in the form of bonuses. I found this pretty funny as well http://www.rakerebatereview.com/ They rate full tilt as having largest player volume and UB as "best for high stakes games" Ahem.And it doesn't exactly mean that, but almost. You get both, but they deduct what you make in bonuses from your total rake, but in the end you still come out ahead of what you'd have gotten from rakeback alone. Link to post Share on other sites
