    lol i dont know how to do that, and what do you mean bored its rivveting stuff! they're all deepstack specialists arent they used to sitting there for along time without getting anywhere!

    We're obviously not getting anywhere, so agreeing to disagree is prob the best thing

    In Response to Re: Why folding is the key to winning deepstacks... : Your general point does not fit this particular instance. You seem to insist on a specific, narrow dogma that does not suit the dynamics of this hand or tournament. Although aggression is generally the optimal tactic over time, it is the WRONG play here simply because if you get called you are most likely crushed. Any set or two pair will call you. If you get called by any pair you are a slight underdog. Going all-in on the flop is not optimal strategy here - not even close to it. If you want to debate this further (and I'm happy to do so) PM me - we've got to the point where everyone else must be extremely bored by now.

    Im not bored, i could debate this all day!  However, nothing needs to be added to this excellent post from Mere. So i guess this is my last word on this thread... hopefully:)

    Yes, it goes Hoggers, then me, then Dohhhh!

    Sadly, he's berating players already for their standard of play - not exactly in the DeepStack spirit, & something that is just "not done" in Poker. Hey-ho, we will try & see if we can get him on board. I'm sure he's a decent kid really.

    Well, I'm pretty sure that he's a kid, anyway.

    Just read your comments in the thread Doh. I agree with some of what you said as I think others do too. But I think the way you said it is what caused the problem.

    Everyone plays this game in their own way and their own style.

    The clever players out there that read this thread might take notes on who said what and get a clue as to the playing styles of individuals on here. The clever posters will bluff. Or maybe double bluff. Or maybe... could go on forever.

    Anyway, it was really enjoyable playing against you this evening.

    Don't mean that in any funny way at all. Really did enjoy it.

    Thanks,
