At mcc, best line to take? I reload to exactly $200 right before this hand takes place. I have AThh mp, raise to $10 after 2 limps. Sb, bb and one limper call. KJ6hh flop, I cbet to $30 when checked to, only bb calls. Turn 4x checks thru. River Qs, he leads $75, I shove, he calls. After tipping $1 to dealer (a truly awful dealer btw) I count my stack and have $403? Wtf!!! The other player in the hand left and was called back cuz the dealer said he had money left. He immediately picks up his change and leaves.

How much did that pay? How many runners does that tourney usually get?

Hey all, I'm in town visiting family for a few days. How large is the field at the Wednesday night tourney at Northville Downs and how late does that run? And how are the cash games?

Thanks.

What are some good headphones for grinding live? I currently use standard ipod earbuds but I want something with noise cancellation that goes over the ear.

Thanks for the response.

I currently use the earbuds that came with my ipod, so I'm not exactly an audiophile. Is there anything around $100 that will get the job done?

I have these relatively cheap pair of Sonys that work just fine. They run about $50. On ear is fine as long as music is playing, but over ear is the best if you want to have them on but not have music playing.

Nice score dude!

I have been putting a ton of time on Lock but I have never played on Carbon. Was pretty curious on the amount of traffic Carbon gets.

I dont know of any off the top of my head in that price range but I am sure they exist.

A good set of headphones is a sound investment imo

I was going to put some on Lock but it doesn't sell well in the marketplace and I'm not sure how smooth cashouts are.

won a smaller tournament earlier and made a few more final tables. had chip lead in another tournament. Some how i blew the game w chip lead w 33 left. Ended up in 13th so 2 final tables. Sigh. the traffic is pretty low because of the split with Lock poker.

Not a fan of the bulky big headphones so I bought some quality earbuds last year. Noise cancelLation isn't as good as the bigger ones but still is more than your stock ipod ones. Sound Quality is really high.

Klipsch s4a or something.
