Ye Im gonna do the TKO at 7, then log off to watch Arsenal (Im holding back mi first beer till 7 to make sure I can see the match properly, wud normally be half cut by now) - then log on hopefully in time to win the velocity, then game on from there. And yeh good point about the CC limp - but with a suited ace, again, never terrible, the position is alot better - but its stlll pretty timid stuff - anything goes in a cash game - a bloke opened shoved for 130xbb with AQ on my table other day and he got paid, some clown snapped him off with 2 jacks. THE 2 EXTREMES! I'll be on to watch u at nl200 later! DOHH Posted by DOHHHHHHH

In Response to Re: 7-6 off utg debate : "Advanced pot control" is being discussed elsewhere and only Brownndog can tell us exactly what he means by that. With regard to "gaining a free card" this is a technique generally used when you have a draw after the flop in position. If your opponent bets on a flop and you have a draw, you can fold (if you don't have the correct odds) or call or raise. The benefit of raising is that, if your opponent just calls your raise, it generally means that he will check to you on the turn. This means that, if you miss your draw, you can also check the turn and get to see the river "for free" in the hope that it will make your draw or give you a chance to bluff. The benefit of raising the flop is that it will generally cost you less than calling another bet from your opponent on the turn who may otherwise, if he puts you on a draw, generally make it too expensive to continue after the turn. The disadvantage is that it gives your opponent a chance to 3-bet you on the flop and price you out of the hand. I would say that you can't make this play with a check-raise out of position since, if you check the turn, your opponent can still bet you off the hand. Another advantage is that, against an opponent who is not aware of this style of play, it disguises your hand. Posted by MereNovice
