come over the top, don't let someone else take the table from you. You have to protect a good hand.

There is a casino near me that offers free roll tournaments. I never go to that casino, so what the crap is a free roll? (please forgive the newb question)

Yes, as it applies to poker. I know what stealing pots are, but does that make you a poker villain?

I've seen this before, and I saw the aces get broken both times. This was out at the spotlight 29 in Palm Desert, CA. The only good thing was that they offered $100 if AA got broken, so the dude still made $200.

Villain? What the heck is this all about?

I prefer live. There is nothing better than seeing the other guys face as you beat his flush with a full house. Ahhhhh.

I think you played it conservatively. You can control the table by betting agressively. I say trust your gut. If you think the other guy has a better hand, then folding your cowboys was the right thing to do. If you think he is still on a draw, then try to bet him out of the pot. Doyle Brunson said, "The key to No Limit Hold'em is to make the other man decide whether or not to push in all his chips."

When did sites, and casinos for that matter, figure out they could take a portion of the pot? This is why I like tournaments or home games. I do not approve of the rake or commission.
