Didn't get time to collect it, so I think I may be off NL25 for a little while. (BR = $520
).

Got set mined, had my aces cracked by JTs (second T on turn). Had KK<AA, AK<KK, AI preflop, and this one was my favourite. How can BB call a 3 bet here ffs?

The ironic thing is that I just wrote a little simulator to illustrate Risk of Ruin calculations. Scary stuff. (4 bb/100 win rate, 100K hand break even stretch anyone?
)
But thanks for all the happy birthday's. (Or most of them anyway.)

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHA.
So funny.
Edit: Oh yeah, and happy birthday old man! Time to move that crisis up a gear.

Yes, you are indeed very funny. Mrsjb's booty remains both unshaken and unstirred. But I have managed to kick the old MLC up to 11 on the dial.
Thanks for pointing me in this direction - bloody good read, ya! (Oh and happy belated birthday.)
And today's theme is.......bluff catching! TT said I should do more of it, so here's a couple of hands. Any comments much appreciated.

Before you ask, TT says raise ATC in the BB when SB completes. It really does get a lot of folds!

Bak to NL10. Ho hum! Only posting this because I thought it looked kind of like the New York skyline. I'm in that sort of mood.

Cool graph
What's also worth to notice is that your red line reminds me of my winnings graph this month. only difference is yours is a lot better
. I'm in that sort of mood
(notice how I go smoothly from smiling to crying)

It looks like a rainbow, a double rainbow... all the way! I'm in that sort of mood. ♦
Hi JB
the latest two hands, I think first is pretty standard, pot control blah blah, second, any reason not to value raise on the river?

he overbets so he really reps 8x, by value raising we just iso vs better 8x/fh.

I have to agree with that. And I'm not sure the first hand is so clear either. The question is, what's Villain's range for betting the river in each case? If I knew the answer, I probably wouldn't still be playing NL10!
