i've never really played with pokerstove or did hand range calculations

most of my plays are done on "what have i seen a million times before in this situation" analysis results

That's interesting. But, I think it has merit. You've played so many hands of 1/2 that you just know the tendency of players.

pokerstove (and any type of analysis) can and should be used to refine your intuition, imo.

Well, yeah, definitely, if you want to improve.

I don't know if Scorcho is still trying to improve though. :P If he was, he'd be at double-cheeseburger stakes!

why accounting? easy work crunching numbers by myself. what's boring about that? decent pay. good basis for advancement into management. plus the job market is strong in accounting - plenty of employment opportunities, even in a down economy.

indeed... my Q-high was not good enough vs 6 other opponents. T2o ended up winning.

isn't that the "doyle brunson" hand. I've heard the name used but I have no idea why he likes T2o.

edit: did he win a big tourney with it? that would make sense...

won his two WSOP ME titles, back-to-back, with T2o on the final hand both times.

Me and friends used to call it O'Doyle from Billy Madison. O'Doyle rules!

Thoughts on river check raise here. Assuming he's never hero calling KcQc and likely always value betting big pairs (could be wrong about this).

Was on the fence about this, but with our history he may call down king high. Definitely a viable and may be even the better play though. I don't know what the hell happened on this one that just occurred, charged himself the maximum for a draw is my guess:
