Your friend sounds like a real class act.

The problem with checking is that every float now has a straight draw to bust you and I think most likely opponents check behind to try to hit it.

I've played quite a bit with Chris Greaves over the past year, he's a regular at a charity/legion cash game I play at. Pretty solid cash game player, very mathematical. Definitely don't picture him making any huge mistakes in this.

actually, i think dan is more likely to bet considering the stack sizes. I mean, he's floating him with the intention of winning it later. He's not just going to check down Q hi. It seems to me like the J is the perfect card to fire at, im surprised he didnt.

Yea. I don't see anything wrong with the check there. Results orientated itt

Feature table is Newhouse and Jacobson... seems obvious to me with back to back November 9 chance and the pretty big chip leader.

Rooting for Life Force, Devo and Newhouse.

Fantastic work xalas! If 5 or 6 of these make the 9 it could be the best FT ever. Hope McCorkell makes it for British interest plus Jacobson, Newhouse and Devo. Otherwise, fine with anyone who isn't a douche or anyone who gets carried away and thinks they're the best player in the world.

"Leif" is pronounced Life in German, thought it was one of those whacky/clever/hippy name choices...hope he FTs ( Hastings do not want)
