I appreciate all the feedback. I hope my next post will be better received. good luck to everyone (myself included) at the WSOP.

A lot of people on 2+2 have sticks up their butts and attacking OP for no reason. Go OP! That would be cool if you won the WSOP so all them mean 2+2ers bow their heads in shame. I hope it happens.

Bow you evil doers! Bow!

+1... well, maybe not to that extent, so +0.5...

To be fair, TJ Cloutier (I know, I know) made the same point vis a vis suited and unsuited connectors.

Thanks Mike C.....The point I was trying to make is that if you have a hand like 89 spades and the flop is 6-7-2, you are much more likely to get paid off if the turn is a 10 or a 5 then if the turn is a third spade. Overpairs are very weary when flushes make it, but they don't seem to have the same ability to lay down overpairs when a straight makes it.

One other small thing as well: If you decide to make a move on a flop with a flush draw, you are more likely to get called. People will often put you on a draw if you make a big raise on the flop with two of a suit. In my history it's been easier to get away with semi bluffs on the flop if there is no flush draw.

Anyway, I'm in Vegas for the World Series and I wish everyone luck....

and thank you The Godson...

Good luck in the WSOP!

thanks for sharing your strategies/tips op. it's stuff like this that this sight is for.

for the nay-sayers. wtf man. even if you disagree, just disagree. why try to shame a guy into never sharing on this forum again just because you think he's not as advanced as you.

Well put 85 chickasaw, although they only think they are more advanced ......GL to you too tultfill.

I don't personally see the value in limping with big aces in early position I think you would get less value out of your premium hands & out drawn with too many people in the pot. I have seen many people employ this strategy in the smaller games & it does not take long to catch on. You may rake the odd pot, but imo you lose value in the long run. Doing it on occasion to throw the table off isn't bad, but I definitely wouldn't employ this strategy on the reg.

I'll take some notes on your advices it's true what they said it's kind of stuff more for live poker but there is some for online also

3 for 3 in Cash games and I just advanced to the 2nd day of the Colossus with $19,800. Sorry, have to pat myself on the bat a little bit!!

You can pat yourself on the bat all you want, but please do it in the comfort of your hotel room.

Been fun with the back and forth on this thread. Wanted to let you know I'm still in the Colossus. 103k left.......Mr. O'Sullivan.
