A change of Subject

G'Day Mates
Well, Christmas time is almost upon us and I would like to extend the most merriest of Christmas to everyone and have a safe and Happy New Year!
This year for me has been full of up and down moods. Not because of playing poker! I enjoy playing poker so much that I could play poker for 10 hours a day if I had the time! Setting up and running an online poker Website is so damn time consuming that I sometimes feel why do I even bother with it? If it wasnt for my Dear poker mate "Betty" and my partners Bucnright and Donfromtexas I would have just given up and gone back to just playing Poker!
I would like to personally say Thank you to Betty because without her help I would not still be here! To Buc and Don, I would like to thank you for your help and your time and I look forward to being a benefit to you in the near future!
Betty you have been behind me when Im just pissed off and when everything is fine, and I would like to say from my heart that I hope all your Wishes and Dreams for this Christmas come to pass, for such a great online friend, no other person has every had. I wanna let the whole online world to know you are the best mate!
So, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to Everyone!

Cheers..................Masala

Starting Hands

Hey Mates

Back to Starting with (A,A). Ok here is a scenario. BB is $50-You draw bullets(spades and clubs) and your first to act under the gun! You decide to slow play the hand? there are 6 other callers: flop comes out (2d, 5d, 4d) Oh Crap! now what? your still first to act, what the hell do you do now? you had better make a damn good bet, like maybe 4-5 times the BB. and see who calls! say you have only 2 callers? Ok now there are only 3 of you left. The turn is 4c and your still first to act. Now what? (see what I mean?) your just surviving and hoping, when you should have been in full command of the hand! (you have $250 into a hand that you could very well lose) When you shoulda thrown that $250 out there from the get go! Then I bet you would have only had the 2 callers in the first place. When you get a monster anticipate what may happen and dont let it happen. Make players pay to see them Cards, you have a winner if you can keep the number of players down to a 1 on 1 situation. (Dont Slow Play Bullets) You will get Burned!

Cheers Mates
Cya tomorrow
