I would prefer if they picked the Sunday nite game instead of the afternoon one. Although picking three games on Sunday, morning, afternoon and night, would be better and you would think with all the promo money they are taking in, they could swing that.<br /><br />Hell, I actually suggested to the poker room manager over there that they continue the promo during the NBA season. A cash giveaway everytime a team scores? Sounds good to me!Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-87955722406591810032014-10-16T19:29:51.660-07:002014-10-16T19:29:51.660-07:00Truly I normally hate all promos.

Add that to the $100 to $500 for each FG or TD and you can see that many thousands were paid out.

I'm thinking of relenting next week as I'm working in Cali during the next to weeks. But I have been playing at BSC during pro football on Sundays. There promos are extremely +EV. Add in the raffles and a lot of players are getting some real bonus money.

So a 20% win rate with AA would really be quite phenomenal. <br />Of course this is all theoretical, but my point really is not to fear playing multiway pots with AA. You just have to know the times post flop you are beat most of the time. You would therefore make more money with AA multiway then you would lose.

I guess my problem is that my post-flop game sucks. :)<br /><br />I do know that if 9 players saw the flop, the one with Aces would only win about 20% of the time, right?Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-33456255145152104252014-10-15T19:47:22.263-07:002014-10-15T19:47:22.263-07:00You hear people all the time that they want to pla...You hear people all the time that they want to play aces heads up. They fear additional players with any two cards will flop 2 pair or draw out on them. But this is not correct thinking is it? If every player goes all in on every hand and you have aces every hand, who will win the most overall? And of course in normal game situations one's post flop skill level is always a consideration. I want multiple players in every hand I play because experience has taught me that my starting hand criteria is better than most other players. And if my starting hand is AA, well then...?CoolDave88https://www.blogger.com/profile/12884196856483018983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-82664257312569382672014-10-15T13:19:23.675-07:002014-10-15T13:19:23.675-07:00idk is it like catsup or ketchup ???? idk is it like catsup or ketchup ???? angerisagifthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01945967112589502437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-90507319515101296812014-10-15T13:08:26.111-07:002014-10-15T13:08:26.111-07:00Hmm.....should that be "Ho"? or " ...Hmm.....should that be "Ho"? or " Ho' "?Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05767080296489122846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8283462864090963789.post-26778215831444102592014-10-15T12:34:48.824-07:002014-10-15T12:34:48.824-07:00will player poker for drawing tix.
