So you raise this hand (QT94 double suited) in the sb but earlier folded QJT3 single suited on the button? (That hand is at http://www.deucescracked.com/videos/16421-Episode-Two?seek=218 Does the extra suited part make that much of a difference or is it the fact that one less player is in the way? Plus you're out of position this time and there was not gap in the connected cards the first time...

Are you kidding me? They're like instant indicators right? If you pull up a table and see chat bubbles...But I suppose you tilting might not be worth it.

Plus, I seem to remember some PygmyHero/BBB LHE vid's talking about proper Full Tilt avatar management as a key component of increasing your win rate.

Just mocking myself for raising that hand. Sorry, sometimes I feel anything to do with FTP is funny.

I explained with the Tommy story - basically a 7 on there will help our hi hand value.

Yeah I mean I should keep them up for when I play but honestly they're pretty annoying on the video. If you guys don't mind then I'll keep them haha.

i think its funny on the merge videos you guys do, but when i'm actually playing i can't stand those things. If you find a way to turn them off let me know! haha

I enjoyed your anecdote Chuck.

you ever use the preferred seat feature? i find it useful to know where on each table my cards are always going to be. on merge it's the lil red chair icon near the chat box

lol i was referring to you when i said someone was making videos in these games, because you were talking about how somebody at this table was watching tv, and someone else was doing something, and so on

what do you think about raising the flop on the right hand table? the pot is decent-sized and it seems like we could knock yogi out and/or clean up some outs or something. there's some chance the pfr has a low hand and might fold the turn/river ui if we barrel off, and if he does have something we have some equity with our flushdraw, gut, and backdoor low

also not that balancing is a big deal here or that we're worried about these guys picking up on our ranges but given our preflop coldcall and flop call, don't we have exactly a flush draw a lot of the time?

edit: i guess we can also have pair+over+backdoors kinda hands too right

now that i see you bet the turn it makes me feel like a flop raise is playable also...besides, wouldn't we raise any JTxx on the flop?

what kinds of factors do you consider when deciding whether to 3bet or coldcall, in situations similar to this one on the right table? i've been making the distinction between 'low only' hands like a278 or something, and 'two-way' hands like aq52 - is that a reasonable way to do it? what about high-only hands like KKQJds - are you 3betting those and not coldcalling them much at all?
