    Sizing your bets to get it all in on the river

    I think you'd be right a decade ago, but the man's been playing poker professionally for decades on and off, he knows what SPR is. Lot of pros want us mooks to think its all tells and feel, but they've spent time studying.

    What have we here?

    I KNOW, that's why I've given up, because I lose a part of me ev-er-y time these mooks come over.

    How useful is an all in button?

    We dont use it. Better for casinos where mooks with headphones misunderstand action. At our game if you're that clueless you deserve to lose the stack.

    BB ante

    I don't think its paradoxical. These games thrive on whales and mooks that have no idea what they're doing, its very boring for casuals to watch if its just a bunch of pros playing tight GTO poker, no one would watch; they need whales to win with crazy insane bluffs so they can share it on...

    BB ante

    Widens the range of hands you should play and increases pot size pre flop. Drives action without needing to remind 9 mooks to put out a small denomination.

    How to become a pro

    Head to twoplustwo forums, way more serious players there. Some pros here for sure but most of us mooks just like the chips. Definitely possible, but it'll take a lot of learning. Youve enjoyed and had an affinity, what does that look like? What results do you have, and are you playing online...

    Most obvious live tells at casinos

    Welcome! I have lots of fun with this. Obviously they're never going to be the oreo tell from Rounders, but lots of helpful info from low stakes mooks. To start, after you fold just watch the people driving the action. How they sit, hold their cards, spend time between action, and what they have...

    PAHWM: Live $1/3, Attractive Hero has lucky Sevens

    ...the board counterfeited his two pair and the same tells seemed reliable. Like @TheJestyr mentioned, chip glance is fa-a-a-ntastic with live mooks. I was attempting to set my own price but I think its just too small and silly. This is the part I have the most trouble with: he's got a very...

    Player Breakdown for New Home Game?

    Can mods delete this? My views have evolved, I realized I wayyy overbought on "Mooks that say they love poker but then show up and don't know the hand rankings"; honestly my game doesn't need more than 1 or 2 of these on the swingiest nights, was silly to get all 4.

    WSOP drama

    Sorry, but screw the people. I'm all for no phones. People are too damn distracted and I don't want to be held up because some douchbag is twittering. My solution would be that everyone is issued one of those weird bags you get at some concerts, which are great btw, your phone and other...

    WSOP drama

    Seems simple, but people are addicted to their phones these days. If you say no phones while sitting at the table you may have mooks getting up and walking a foot or two away from the table. I don't like the idea of players having to police what other players are doing on their phones during the...

    72 Hours of Bagpipes - Wellness Check?

    Jesus Christ, I come back here and it says "21 Viewers" before I even share the update, you mooks are insatiable. Did somebody link this wierdness somewhere or are you guys checking every weekend?! Its been very loud lately coming from the house. No more bagpipes, now just the very thuddy...

    Controversial Chip & Poker Opinions

    Back on track, you mooks: I like the $2 chip for 1/3. Hell yeah, I'm gonna throw out 2 chips that together equal $3. Hell yeah I'm gonna appreciate getting one chip as change when I throw a $5 for my BB. Hell yeah I'm gonna bet it weirdly later on to negate all efficiency benefits, like $47...

    Tourney To use or not to use, a dealer button

    In a self dealt game it would be irresponsible to ask a player to look at the backs of the cards in front of them, observe the color and then look around the table to see who has that particular colored deck in front of them. It would also be irresponsible to ask a player to observe who...

    Tourney To use or not to use, a dealer button

    Dealer button every time. Remind people position matters, and can easily see whos next to act because my apes always put the stub down between streets. And before any of you mooks tell me to teach them not to, dont worry about it, we just learned how to check instead of folding.
