Yeah I did a bit of research and it's not actually too bad. But as Gaz says it's actually quite meaningless because it's going to take so long to converge. 100 games is literally nothing.

I think Full Tilt Pro Cyndy Violette should be buying in for more than 5 Big bets at 2/4 Limit Stud 8.

Has a bracelet in Stud Hi/Lo so maybe I shouldn't take the piss too much, so I guess she was just putting in her contracted hours or as it's the highest game going at the moment just anted to play. Think you'd sit down with more then 5 big bets though.

Looking sturdy keep it up. That john jag guy is pretty weak at times in your BB!

Oh lol didn't realise there was such a rail. Yeah johnjag total lol bad. In fact 3 or so of them were pretty terrible by my reckoning. Not annoyed with shove, think it's pretty standard tbh. Button raise with like anything, SB call = dead moneys. Just a shame I keep making $200-$300 cashes. Guess I can't complain though since I seem to cash in it most of the time atm on minimum buyin basically.

Tomorrow is another day! :D

EDIT: If you want more fun chattimes then come on teamspeak. PM for info.

Yeah but it's not like I am cashing in every tournament I play. Plenty of other gooseberry fool where I am losing money to balance it out.

I go with the opinion if ou have less then about 2000 chips the addon is worth it because you're unlikely to make the cash anywa so the extra bu in isn't worth it. Though I pay tr and bet off 400 or so chips so i can add the rebuy on if the rebuy period is about to add.

You're in a game. You sit in the C/O with Q-Q. Blinds 25/50 in a seven man table.

UTG raises to 225. UTG+1 then instantly re-raises to 600. As the C/O you opt to call.

However, the Dealer then 4-bets to 1300. The original raiser UTG folds, the UTG+1 calls, and you opt to call.

The flop is Ac Ks Qc.

The UTG+1 shoves all in and covers you - hes won the first hand, and this is Hand 2. Action is on you.

What do you do?

I had this hand tonight.

Hands below.

After a lot of dwelling - I opted to call the all-in, and the dealer quickly folded.

UTG+1 shows A-Ko and the turn and rivers blank for a massive pot to me.

Dealer shows he had J-J, UTG - 10-10
