| its 57 to 43 i believe against a midpair becaise of straight outs and like 53 to 47 against a high pair. i havent run numbers on it either so it might be wrong. AK is the 14th best hand in the deck against an all-in the problem is not a whole lot of people will go all-in with AQ AJ KQetc. so most of the time its a race. i honestly cant remember the last time i had AK and was called by someone who i had dominated its always a pair or another AK(everytime i went all-in i was shortstacked or ... |

TR, they sometimes dont see the cards first on HSP, sometimes they do but sometimes not.
there is no strategy too it, its just a variance reducer. if variance bothers you then you should use this everytime, if you dont care about variance you should disable it.
personally id use it 100% of the time whether im ahead or behind, is carbon a usa room? might signup. |

running it twice can only be talked about AFTER both players are already allin, if you have watched high stakes poker you will see they only ever talk about it after the action because saying anything before that would be giving away the strength of your hand.
i would imagine its setup to where once both players are allin another button appears and your given x seconds to click it(hopefully not long, should be like 10-15 seconds maximum), if both players chose yes then its run twice. |

check withdrawals i guess, its annoying to pay $8 a pop but if you can claim say.. a $100 bonus each time then it pays for itself.
once my echeck withdrawal from stars hits my bank account im gonna deposit at next bonus and will likely have to withdraw via check when the time comes..annoying but what ya gonna do? |

the blinds dont go faster just because 3k people instead of 300, so dont be intimidated just because suddenly someone with 10 times your stack who had a lucky run moves to your table, just try to play as best you can considering how many bbs you have.
personally i prefer the largest tourney possible, my favorite use to be the 25k player $10 one stars had, it makes it easier to cash, the fields are usually softer, and if all the peices ever fall into place one day i can hit a huge ... |

basically the same stuff as any limit poker game, knowing when chasing is reverse implied odds, knowing when you can checkraise, knowing what types of opponents you can value bet thinly against, just finding ways to get that extra bet or save an extra bet, in a lot of ways i find limit poker a lot more fun than no limit and pot limit.
probably like at least 70% of stud situations play themselves, like its obvious what the right move is. getting the extra equity in that other 30% is the ... |

the packers are a much better team, id say im surprised they are only as small as a favorite as they are tbh. i would have thought packers -6/-7
steelers barely beat an overrated ravens team and were completly shut out of the second half against the jets, i honestly dont see this being a very close game.
packers 38-21 |

my take on it is this, america sucks and i cant wait to leave this country.(ideally by the end of the year, wanting to move to canada) if anyone is very patriotic and is offended by this statement then im sorry but im not going to filter myself. i no longer support this country. the last time i said this someone told me to "love it or leave it" and to that i say look at the direction the us is going, its the laughing stock of the world now.
i withdrew all my money at the end of last ... |
