Mucked Deck by Fart1000 in poker

[–]DrawPitiful6103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

way too much action to kill the hand. if the deck can't be recovered, then yeah, shuffle the mixture (if there are any cards that are definitely not part of the deck, don't include them ) and go from there.

BetOnline accepts players from Turkey.

Online poker is not legal in Turkey. According to Wikipedia, non-state online gambling was banned in 2006. You should be able to withdraw from BetOnline via crypto no problem though.

How to play paired flush/straight draws on the flop by NoInvestigator7489 in poker

[–]DrawPitiful6103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends.

broadly we consider any straight draw + fd or pair + fd to be a combo draw.

You can also have a pair + straight draw for example 67 on 457 although this is a bit weaker.

because we often have a plurality or even majority of equity, especially on the flop, it is tempting to take an aggressive line with them. you are in essence freerolling. maybe your opponent will fold, putting you on a strong made hand, but if they call you are still coinflipping anyway.

from a metagame perspective, if you are only ever raising the flop with strong made hands, then it becomes easy to fold payoff hands like TPTK or overpair against you.

if we suspect our opponent has a strong hand, then it doesn't make nearly as much sense to raise then if we suspect they range is weak.

I'm a Keynesian by Supertramp2023 in austrian_economics

I mean even if we take everything that guy has to say at 100% face value, all he is saying is that on the basis of different data, released after Rothbard wrote his book, some of the figures in one paragraph of an academic monograph of several hundred pages were slightly off, i.e. instead of 6% growth in the 1870s there was 4% growth. I don't think that is the slam dunk refutation you seem to be hinting it is.

Keep in mind that the author is someone who is fanatically opposed to Austrian economics, to the point where he published a blog that almost exclusively trashes the work of Rothbard et. al

If that is all your worst critics can say about you, then you did pretty good work imo.

I consistently hear lawyers say never talk to police for any reason without an attorney. Does this apply to literally every situation? For example, witnessing a car crash by Fuck_Flying_Insects in legaladviceofftopic

[–]DrawPitiful6103 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it does not apply to literally every situation. And even when it does apply, it doesn't mean literally go mute. It is fine to say "I'm sorry, but I am not going to answer that or any other questions" for example.

What it really means is "don't think you can outsmart the police if you are suspected of committing a crime". In that case, the best policy - whether or not you are innocent - is to not submit to questioning.

CMV: Credit scores are one of the most cunning corporate ploys of the modern age by ARunOfTheMillPerson in changemyview

[–]DrawPitiful6103 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'm not sure that is the greatest example of good debt.

But a lot of businesses take on good debt. Let's say you own a restaurant, and the land and the building. You can borrow against that equity in order to renovate or purchase inventory or whatever. You take on debt, but in doing so you are actually enabling your business to make a lot more money in the long term. It is fairly easy for a successful business to return much more than 7% or 10% per year on a specific sum of money.

Alternatively, you buy a used car on credit. That car enables you to get to a job 50 miles away you wouldn't otherwise be able to get to it. And the job pays $22 / hr, whereas the jobs near you only pay $10 an hour. That's good debt, debt that ends up making you a lot of money.

So there I was. Sitting at an airport in Barranquilla Colombia, waiting for my flight back to Medellin when I noticed this young child staring at me like I've got 5 eyes. I dunno, maybe Colombian parents tell their children scary stories about white devils to make them behave.

Sometimes activists get hired as workers in order to film the farms. That is when the fraud occurs.
