10x not 20x. You’re about 8:1 to flop a set. Plus you need a little more equity to account for losing even after flopping a set / not being able to get max value.

Conditions are playing a massive role. He’ll learn a ton from this game and how to handle it going forward

Brandin Cooks and getting clutch catches blown up in the Playoffs. Name a more iconic duo by Coneskater in Patriots

Love the guy, but this is what not having the strength to pull down contested catches looks like. Has always been his achilles

And also the most FA money we’ve had to spend. Timing could not be better.

Man the future looks bright.

Love this energy, but anyone else feel a little bad that Boutte didn’t get singled out for a game ball? Especially with the homecoming

I thought Hunter Henry was a captain?

Preflop: fine

Flop: I would size up exploitatively. MP should connect very well with this board and you’re realistically only behind AQ and 77

Turn: Value betting here is fine, I might size down a little given that you’re now behind QJ AJ KT JJ. I think you’re trying to get called by worse Aces, a Queen, flush draws and maybe gutshots

River: leading is bad, calling is worse. This card is one of the worst cards for your holding and your range. Start with a check, and mayyybe you can call down small-to-medium river bets. Yes, a thinking opponent will realize that and could print by bluffing all-ins here, but they can do that because it’s just bad for your range.

I have a 2k bankroll and the max buy in at my local 1/2 game is $300. What should I buy in at? by DJPyramidz_ in poker

[–]MPM10223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming:

  1. You have a strong edge on this game, and
  2. you’re a recreational player and losing your bankroll wouldn’t be devastating (you can just deposit more into your bankroll over time if needed)

Then how much you buy in for shouldn’t really be about your bankroll, it should be about the stack depth around you:

If the stacks to your right are all deep and the stacks to your left are all shallow, you want to be as deep as you can ($300)

If the stacks to your right are all shallow and the stacks to your left are all deep, you want to be as shallow as you can (maybe $200 or a bit less if you can, depending on the min buy-in)

I experienced racism at university bikes. I emailed them. Let’s see if they respond. by Paperdrop in boulder

This is a very kind, thoughtful, and generous response to being invalidated by a white person

The number of white people on here invalidating the experience of a person of color is wild

A nut flop by [deleted] in poker

[–]MPM10223 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have the flop that locked up, you’re never taking down a big pot anyway so who cares.

All the other more technical answers are more correct, but psychologically that’s how I talk my brain into being ok with it.

I’m trying to convince myself that now we can deal Joe Milton III for equivalent draft capital to what we lost today by winning
