Yeah, me and benny the cunt were just talking about your play the other day Bruce. If you loosened up your game a little bit, you would be one of the better players in the region. You don't go on tilt and you're very hard to read (well, we know that when you bet you pretty much have the nuts).

I can understand the min-bet on the flop, the call is saying to Bruce, "Yes, I've got a spade".. then when the 4th one comes out, he knows he's out.

But min-bet pre-flop is sacrilege. I've started to play that ANY pockets (other than 2's), I'm raising pre-flop 3xBB.. however, if someone else has already raised, then I'm folding anything under 7's.

Cos if I've got 44, I wanna get rid of the T5 BB.

Min-raising with any hand preflop is sacrilege. You should be raising MINIMUM 3xBB or higher.

It's part of my pre-flop strategy of 2 choices: Fold, or raise 3xBB. There's no calling :)

I'm sitting in like... no 2 position, I think. I'm dealt pocket Aces. Straightaway I raise it to 12k to see a flop.


I see a problem here ...

:D
