El Nino tweeted that Kurt has 710k, so not sure which of those is right.

Thanks guys!

FWIW I've heard multiple times today that my comfort in live games was an edge on the players who had a better technical game than me.

I feel like the local club rakes a lot, 5 bucks in a 1/2 no capped buy in game that occasionally plays deep but minimum buy in is 100, which unless the game has someone who bought in deep orginally usually isn't surpassed much. It is also 5 to go, so as soon as the flop comes they are raking a substantial amount of the pot. I think like $2. This feels kind of ridiculous.

Here's me late to the party... Good job Kurt!

Finished my exams last Friday so I could finally get back into some live poker/go hang out with my live grinder friends. Went down to play the monthly £300 in Nottingham, busted in the 2nd level (lol), then spent the rest of the weekend playing £1/2. Then played in London a couple of nights ago and had a pretty sweet 4 figure score. Ah, live poker.

The players at my B&M can play the turn autiously and lay down bottom set correctly on the river when the draw gets there.

Yet preflop they routinely call a short stack's raise of 25% of his stack with hands like 33 and J10o. How is there a such a gap of knowledge in the most important street?

I know sometimes I will make calls on these SS players with less than optimal hands because a) I want them to bust and put a real buy-in back in play or b) because they are good for the game and want to keep them in for the dynamic they add to the table.
