I'm not sure why you created the new account, but it seems like this post is well-suited to the thread you already started with your other account.

Not every question and/or thought needs a new thread.

Trying to figure out who those people are on this forum is a bit harder because.
I KNOW I know **** about Poker OK

Because horse racing is Pari Mutuel Wagering In Other words there is a type of "saturation limit" after you reach that point you are only starting to bet against yourself my lowering the expected pay out back to yourself

As you step in class from a 2/4 limit to 3/6 limit to 5/10 limit
are the players you encounter likely to increase in ability in a linear or expodential fashion ?

would the same be said for expected money won/lost ?

In other words if you played a 2/4 limit game for 3 hours lost 100
is the loss in a 3/6 game expected to be about 150, 200 or greater then 300 ?
150 would be linear 300 would be expodential.

Are these questions even answerable ?

1) There are exponentially less 'bad' players as you move up in stakes ... but the bad players usually have more money!!

2) You will lose more money when you play with 'more' better players when you don't adjust your playing style.

Think of a water pipe ... Do you get 50% more water going from 1/2" (12mm) to 3/4" (18mm)? A leak is a leak and the bigger the pipe ... GL

He's kind of right, except that he'd only be betting against himself if he put all his money into one race.

From Wikipedia:

In real-life examples, such as horse racing, the pool size often extends into millions of dollars with many different types of outcomes (winning horses) and complex commission calculations.

The heads up limit holdem version used to be powered by Polaris, a very strong heads up limit holdem bot. No idea for no limit though.

I think if you're thinking about the game in these terms, you can probably expect your losses to be "expodential" in any event.

Yeah and because there is only one horse race per calendar year in most countries, it's impossible for even the best odds-picker in the world to make > $500K.

Read some posts in this forum and in the strategy forums here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/7/no-limit-holdem/ where people posted a hand for discussion. Look at how they posted the hand and all of the information they provided. This is the 29th post in this thread and it still isn't possible to glean all of the information that is necessary to discuss the hand that you want to discuss.

A new guy comes in for help and as usual you big hitters have to take cheap shots to make yourself feel better. I bet you're all bitter after you realised you can't beat the live 1/2 games any more and now want to take it out on someone who wants to do better than you. For shame!

I recently played a live low limit game.
Some of my observations.
The Live Players weren't nearly as good as the online players.
2. I had expected the players to be a lot looser. Only one guy at the table
was a very loose player. Most of the guys weren't raising unless they had sometime pretty decent after the flop.
3. a Paired board with a guy really firing away most always meant either a set or full house
4.One lady at the table was kind of like the comedy (I guess there is one at every other table ?) She kept critiquing my my hands/play. In the mean time
after about 3 hours I was about even and she was down like like 250 dollars.
NOT being able to take her BS another min I pointed this out to her and she finally shut her F'ing mouth.
5. Question WHY Would anyone make a straddle bet ? Am I wrong ?
To me it basically looked like a Fart in the Dark

1) Yes, live players are generally weaker than online players. Online players play more hands and the weaker ones usually get weeded out more quickly.
2) Loose and 'not raising' are 2 different things. Do you mean betting or raising after the Flop? In live poker you will rarely see a raise on the Flop with a weak hand. It will usually be a huge draw or top pair minimum.
3) Same as 2 .. rare to find someone without trips (different than set), FH or an overpair in that spot.
4) Why would you point out to a weak player that they are weak? Now she will take a look at her game instead of yours. As long as she has chips on the table and you think you have an advantage let them spout off on pretty much anything that keeps them from looking at their own game.
5) Straddles create action whether UTG or B. At tight passive tables you can immediately pick up more information about a player's calling range when there is a straddle in play. Straddles also make the game bigger by making the stacks effectively smaller. If you think you have a post Flop edge on the table a straddle is a good way to exploit it. GL

@answer20. I am trying to figure out if the straddle makes any sense ?
He makes the bet pre flop in the dark.
I am thinking If he pre flops KK isn't his straddle discouraging action he might other wise want ?

As for your reply to #2 I meant raising after the flop. The Guy was raising again on the turn when all the smoke cleared all the guy had as like low pair maybe even Ace high.
Only one such guy at the table. Expected there might have been three such players.

Straddles encourage action because there's more money in the pot to start with.
