If you read that they are checking to give up, even though we are likely good at showdown, do you think betting and taking it down is good in terms of concealing your button flatting range? It seems to me that trying to showdown the hand gives villain cheap information on your ranges. Going back to our 3bet discussion, if I can make a note that my opponent flats AQ IP then I could suspect that my opponent is depolarized when he does 3bet, making my 4bet bluffs easier to attempt.

So, yeah, I like just trying to take it down to hide my ranges more too. Is that logical to you guys?

Jay,

Eli had a QB rating of 0 in one game earlier in his career. Thats hard to do. Hes not that good. If Wes Welker catches that pass Giants lose.

Their first superbowl was even luckier. If the Bucs beat the 3 win raiders giants dont even make the playoffs.

Eli is the luckiest SOB ive ever seen. He constantly looks like hes about to drool on himself, yet he has a supermodel wife.

And please dont ever call soccer "real football". I dont care how many euros youre talking to. If our best athletes played soccer US would be the best by far. Think if coby, tyson chandler(at goal), derrel reevis, steve smith, derik rose, darren sproles, victor cruz all played soccer. US would dominate. But our best athletes play real sports.

HaHa, there are soccer players that can get more air than basketball players, and can sprint almost as fast as Olympian gold medalists, and they certainly change direction faster than Olympians. I guarantee you Ronaldo has a higher vertical than Koby, it's been tested vs. NBA players. Soccer is the worlds best sport, anyone who can't appreciate the beauty, athleticism and skill it takes to compete in the grandest of games is deluded. American football is a stain on a soccer jersey.

You are right though, it's a shame the U.S. doesn't train young talent to play soccer, it could then compete worldwide.

The best soccer player in the world couldnt make the worst nfl, nba, mlb team. Who gives a shit if ronaldo can has a higher vert than Koby(which I highly doubt)? Maybe he could be a decent shortstop but he couldnt hit the ball out of the infield. Maybe he could be a be an ok receiver but the second he got hit he would go down crying and hoping for a pink card. The only shot ronaldo(your best soccer player im assuming) would have at making a pro american sports team would be a point guard in the nba. And thats because there is no contact and acting like a pussy gets you free throws.

Im not saying soccer players arent athletes, Im just saying theye in the same group of athletes as marathon runners and cyclists. Great cardio? Yes. Athletes? No.

We already compete worldwide and do ok.

Im not even going to mention how terrible the actual game is. What a joke.

Sorry for the typical american arrogance. Your boy KongSo started it. Im just stating facts. Our best athletes choose 3 or 4 sports before soccer.

Jay,

That Eli impression is spot on huh? And for the record, I intended to do a slight superbowl derail, but only because you talked about it in the video. I didnt want it to turn into this. Im done and Im sorry.

It's logical, but you're not giving up anything significant by showing your opponent one hand you may flat on the button. I'd put a higher premium on concealing my range if it's in a 3bet or 4bet pot, but I'd still try to get to showdown if I thought the info I was getting on my opponent would be more valuable than the info I was giving away (which, IMO, it usually is). I think in a time where everyone is using HUDs and the better regs aren't always playing the same hand the same way it's difficult to disguise any part of your range.
