so so bad to call that there


Third of all, under UIGEA, transferring funds to and from any internet
gambling venue is illegal if any US financial institution is involved
in the transfer.

As has been pointed out in another thread, Visa cards seem to work
with Carbon Poker.

I thought Esfandiari's analysis was right on.

I'll preface this by saying that I wasn't here and didn't see it on tv,
but I just read it on pokernews. That's a 100% standard hand and standard
spot there. 10 years ago that's a 100% standard fold with QQ, but in
today's poker this is perfectly standard.

You have to look at Salaburu's style and how many hands he's capable of
having in that spot. That's where ranging comes into play. Balsiger
knows that he's capable of having a wide range there, so his shoving range
doesn't have to be KK+ there.

Biscuit just called it a pretty standard call too, so I'm gonna go with
him over you on this one. sorry!

Never mind -- I thought you were talking about the Thomas/Gee hand.

There's a reason why it's an old saying. Not gonna argue with you on this
because you'll never change your mind, which is why I'll defer to someone
like Olivier. His analysis was perfect.

Rather than relying on an "old saying," can you explain the actual reason
WHY you think this was a bad call?

Because in 1987 the only hands they had there were KK/AA and AK, and
that's all that doggy knows.
