    2022 PCF Calendar Tie Breaker Voting

    Am I missing something? A completely custom, professionally and painstakingly designed set of Paulsons (Paulsons!) is losing this poll? Pudding, I’m really happy for you, and I’m going to let you finish, but the Truman set is one of the greatest custom sets of all time. One of the best sets OF...

    wheres the best hotel deal staying on Las Vegas strip?

    The funniest part is that you can see the Rio sign from the hotel, so it doesn't look far at all. I think it's 2.2 miles. The side of Caesars is really pretty but walking across the interstate is a no mans land. I didn't do it at night, but I maybe saw 3-4 other people during the day.

    wheres the best hotel deal staying on Las Vegas strip?

    In June I stayed at the Tuscany Suites, which is "right behind" Bally's. The room was huge with a full kitchen. The property has a beautiful shaded pool and is tree-lined everywhere. The price was like $7 cheaper per night than Bally's. Using geometry, it's really not much farther to the Wynn...

    Are Paulson Clay Chips going extinct?

    You know those great chips they use in the WSOP tournaments? They still have plenty of years of life left, but once they need to be replaced it won't be by clay.

    High-High Split Poker

    I want to publicly apologize to Moose. He introduced me to dramaha in Louisville and I derided the game. I've since come around. Double-board plo in any format?? Es no bueno.

    Ever receive a bad sample set?

    Which scenario seems more plausible? 1) There was exactly one one horribly warped chip of each denomination in his set and he thought, "I know just who to send these to..." 2) The envelope holding a set of perfectly fine chips was subjected to high temperatures either during transit or afterward.

    Crazy slow roll

    Did you watch that video? It was painful. There's slow rolling, and then there's "Look at me! I just won an Academy Award! You all really love me! I'm so special!" During the hand though, I was amazed. There's no way I could flop quads and keep yapping away like nothing happened. And then he...

    Tourney AKs UTG on the bubble

    I think this is one of the worst spots imaginable. I hate every play almost equally. I think I could fold AQo and 77. I'm not sure I could fold anything better, but I agree with bentax's analysis above.

    Is this dementia?

    This morning I put oil on my lunch salad but I forgot to add vinegar before I packed it. I guess I'm no longer invited to play in your game. :-(

    Tourney Thoughts on this tournament structure (River's Casino)

    Wouldn't that make your current stack worth about $900? That's money you are throwing away if you played the other day 1 and ended up with more chips. I can't see how that works to your benefit.

    Tourney Thoughts on this tournament structure (River's Casino)

    Those pros are trying to maximize their hourly ROI. They *want* to bust in the shortest time possible. Presumably, someone on this board playing that tournament would have the exact opposite goal.

    Latest Aruba Palm Beach $1 mockups

    It's been awhile since 10th grade geometry but I'm pretty sure "circle" is a shape.

    QQ pre-flop line check

    Are we raising for value because we will get caused by worse? Or are we "semi-bluffing" to try to get AK to fold? Neither sounds like a great option. You would be better off 4-betting T9s or some such nonsense. If I'm MikesDad and the button calls your 4-bet, I'm abso-positively jamming AK. I'm...

    Was this a villain angle shoot?

    If it was an angle, it's pretty much the worse one ever. Unless he "meant" to get a small flush to fold. Either way, he doesn't sound like an opponent to fear.

    Tourney When to Blind in Players that are Late?

    The easiest solution is the best - let them buy in for a full stack late. Allow a rebuy in the first few levels (who wants to bust out on the first level and sit around for a couple of hours?) Then their late registration is just like a rebuy.

    36mm Paulson Chips Reviews

    I've played with these at Foxwoods. Without the interest in the Horseshoe chips in this forum, I would not have noticed they were smaller.

    Tournament hand

    Why would you call pre-flop to fold top pair on the flop to a 1/2 pot continuation bet? I'm hoping for showdown, but I'm not folding as played. OP, if you don't know what Sklanksy's Gap Concept is, you should look into it.
