Pretty sure I had the Eyeore avatar before then. Plus I have the posts to match. IRL a woman I dated told me I sounded like Eeyore in 2002.

I don't believe that story.

Story checks out, that_pope doesn't believe that story.

Nope. Disney's huge team of IP lawyers are going to make sure that if anyone gets the royalties, it's them.

No, somewhere in the middle. She was actually saying it in kind of a sweet way. I then amused her young daughters by saying "my tail fell off again" in the mopiest voice I could do.

no limit holdem tourney 15/18 remain 4 spots pay. Avg stack about 200bb.

I raise 66 in HJ, folds around, unknown in bb 3 bets pot, I call.

flop 722r

he bets 1/2 pot, I call.

8o

he bets 1/4 pot, I call, leaving about 2/3 pot bet behind, he covers.

9o

he shoves, I fold.

He says "could you beat ace high?"

I reply "If you had ace high there, then good for you."

He says "but could you beat ace high?"

I reply "my whole flop call range beats ace high."

It's snowing! Yay!

Oh good morning.

My friend and I simultaneously showed both of our faces at the local bar on Friday night for the first time in over 10 years. It went surprisingly well considering that we got shut off and almost fought last time.

That's all.

I'd call the river shove. The turn bet screams weakness. And besides, utility value of busting out and playing cash games exceeds that of continuing to struggle in a donkament.

This used to be true, but it's not anymore.

So people are playing further from GTO now than they used to?
01-20-2019 , 03:30 PM
lol. Actually with solvers that work for multiple betsizes we're finding that 1/4 pot to 1/2 pot is often correct, particularly on the turn, but also on the flop and river.

i like the "pot bet flop, 1/3 to 1/2 pot bet turn" line myself. Let me tell you why it doesn't matter though:

I am awful at poker

Hi guys, I am in the process of transferring all my stuff to my new phone and it doesn't look like the 2p2 app will port over.

It may be a while until I post again. I've enjoyed all the discussions / arguments / jokes we've shared.

I'll see some of you at the tables and some of you around town. Best of luck to you all.
01-21-2019 , 02:03 AM
That's a sad bon voyage.

May all your sharts be live and all your outs be sharts or whatever that poker saying is.

What OS / version? It doesn't work perfectly on the Android I got about a year ago, but good enough.

If not, you could still keep your old phone and use it on wifi just for 2+2.

I want to know what kind of tournament has an average stack of 200 big blinds with 18 people left.

I just use the internet browser on my phone. Having a specific app for each site is exactly how the internet wasn't designed.

DougL is such a dinosaur.

I'll be posting a bit less myself bec I'm taking the entire year off, the game's gotten that boring.

Still might offer some advice from the OMC perspective.
01-21-2019 , 07:42 PM
I'm going to start investing in Blackjack and Casino Games rather than poker. Probably a much better ROI. Any OMC advice, Howard?

I’ll be on Live at the Bike with Radio Mike and Joker on Wednesday night if anyone wants to tune in. Can’t recall if I’ve mentioned that yet.
01-21-2019 , 08:06 PM
What will your handle be?
01-21-2019 , 08:18 PM
You'll be playing, or one of the commentators on LATB? And what game will be played?
