@ thefodz nothing wrong in your post I just gave you my answer. Call to hit is fishie! Dont ask if you cant manage the answer. Dont tell me to lighten up cause you dont like the answer. And most important must I tell you that calling to hit is more dangerous than a bluff. Let me explain.....when you do a bluff you got fold equity(a chance that opponent folds) if you call somebody you gotta hit to win!

I agree with you on that (might not be the right way to do it, but it makes sense to me)

First of all, yes you do have the right of opinion. But how appropriate do you think it is to come in a thread where everyone is being a sport about the question posted, having fun and commenting their "favorite" hands and then comes somebody and says that this is "fishie" in a way of making everybody here sound like inexperienced players when in reality that is not true.
You were the one who apparently didn´t understand the spirit of this thread and start going all technical.
------------ And I don´t like when that happens because it scares people away, because they feel they might be judged if they write their favorite hand and participate in this thread.

By the way, Admin, nice to see you participating in regular opinion threads instead of only technical related questions. M3turbo must be very dear to you.

No perhaps you are right I didn't get the "spirit" of the post but I know what I read and that is what I comment on. But see the positive in it....you learned a litle about fold equity in this thread

What I learn is strictly on the tables. Now, if you want to see how fishy I really am we sure can take this discussion to a HU game. It would be very interesting. We could even post the hand history of that match so that everyone can see. Then DEFINATELY people are going to learn something. Especially to respect their elders.

I dont respect people that doesn't respect me, elder, younger another collor I dont care. You asked, I gave a comment on it and because you didn't agree in my post you tried to hang me out. Blew things up and twisted the things i wrote. So absolutely no respect to an elderly fish

hahah he did have a point with his bluffing statement and its definatly one im going to use with my buddies who are stupid and call those stupid hands AFTER the flop saying.. "they are committed" (thats our justification for doing stupid things....)
and i definatly agree to a heads up match lol i would personally love to see that...
Suggestion for the site...: Heads up matches..... 3000 chips each.. winner gets mob points?? say 100 points to enter?? ... huh... huh?? am i right??

Humm, so that´s the way it´s going to be?
I hope you have seen beyond the borders of your lovely country, because life is the greatest teacher, not some tiny words in a book talking about fold equity.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder! I think it´s a wonderful country. Maybe you hate your own country, i don´t know.
But it´s funny... instead of saying "Yep beautiful country, have you ever been here?" and try to start some friendly conversation, you prefer to keep taking pointless shots at me.
I´ll I can say is that Brasil is a marvelous country, have you ever been here?
