May 1	comment	How often, and how much, should I bluff on the river when I miss my flush but a possible straight comes? You've given an answer. Thus, it's in the wrong place. You should move it. Thanks. (This link here discusses it in depth)
Apr 27	comment	How often, and how much, should I bluff on the river when I miss my flush but a possible straight comes? @JohnDibling Comments on questions are best used to gain "clarification" and/or additional information. Comments on answers are best used to gain clarification and, to avoid duplicating good answers, to add helpful additions to the existing response. Your response is most useful as a comment to Jeffreys answer.
Apr 26	comment	How often, and how much, should I bluff on the river when I miss my flush but a possible straight comes? @JohnDibling Isn't that a comment that should be placed beneath Jeffreys answer, and not the question.
Apr 25	comment	Most common freerolling situations in holdem? Out of curiosity, I'd like to know what you or others might gain from having this question answered. What use would it be?
Apr 24	comment	How often, and how much, should I bluff on the river when I miss my flush but a possible straight comes? Using examples of other hand historys, is it possible for you to adapt a hand to show in much more detail the situation you describe? Pot size, bet sizes, all prior actions, table dynamics, are all critical to this decision. I'd like to answer but it wouldn't be as specific as this situation requires. Thanks.
Apr 22	comment	How do I structure the blind levels of a tournament to run for a certain length (on average)? Did you use the search function? There are quite a few related questions (with answers) such as this one or this one that might be useful. Search for "tournament" and "setup" or something similar and you'll most likely find what you're looking for, rather than repeat the process here again.
Apr 22	comment	HUD states - current or database based As Jeffrey says, most well known database tracking software will allow you to customize the information displayed. Filtering hands for specific cash limits, tournament blind levels, enabling "tool tips" to display the total and current session stats are all useful, but are heavily dependent on volume of hands tracked. Personally, if I have 250 hands on an opponent I should have picked up some exploitable information by then. Also, playing a session without a HUD occasionally, but regularly, is a good way to learn what the most useful information is that you may have overlooked.
Apr 12	comment	NL600: River Decision IP vs TAG 3 Barrel @tacticalcoder I'll tell you soon. Watch this space ;)
Apr 11	comment	NL600: River Decision IP vs TAG 3 Barrel @TacticalCoder It's a good answer (+1), but you haven't considered a raise. It's interesting that most of the people I've spoken to don't even mention it!
Apr 10	comment	Why is 7c2d a semi-bluff? &diamond; &hearts; &spades; &clubs;
Apr 10	comment	NL600: River Decision IP vs TAG 3 Barrel @SoboLAN Is that not an answer?! (not a comment) ;D
Apr 7	comment	Why is 7c2d a semi-bluff? Any way of parsing the information into a hand history style format and editing the question? It's difficult for anyone to be confident in the answers they give if the question is lacking details.
Apr 7	comment	Why is 7c2d a semi-bluff? Surely there is more information about the hand in this situation? Board cards? Opponent dynamics? Position? For something to be a semi-bluff it generally means there is still some possibility of making the best hand, which is why I ask what the situation is in more detail. Thanks.
Apr 5	comment	Which requires more skill, cash game or tournament poker? @TimLehner It would be good if you could give more detailed reasoning to back up your observations. Thanks.
Apr 5	comment	Is online poker legal or not in the United States ? I assume you ask this question with specific regard to the USA? If so, could you update the title. If your question is more general in geographic terms, could you please state that. Thanks.
Mar 28	comment	Inactive player problem: Where should the money be distributed in this situation? This is such a rare thing that I can't see much use for it as a question! What is there to learn from this? ...As a general rule (online/live), the missing players last action stands, but if that same player can't act on his next turn his hand is "dead".
Mar 21	comment	Basic Strategy for Pokerstars ZOOM? Thanks for editing :). It's an interesting question that i'm looking into myself.
Mar 21	comment	Basic Strategy for Pokerstars ZOOM? Is there a way to make this question less of a discussion and perhaps more strategy based regarding "Zoom" pokers unique set-up? In it's current form it's a bit too open-ended and vague. FAQ
Mar 14	comment	Online vs Live problem How many bb's do are you buying in for? What are the stack depths of your opponents? What do you consider a basic strategy (fundamentals) when adjusting to very loose opponents?
Feb 28	comment	NL400: Live Hand vs Semi-Loose Passive Player At Dry Board. What Would You Do? The (my) method is nuanced, but I've no doubt you know that. What I can say is that I memorized the hand combinations that make up the top 50% of all hands for a few categorization methods (Pokerstove, Sklansky-Chubukov, PokerProTools) so by seeing one hand I get a baseline of what a potential range looks like. The more hands I see, the more accurate I get. Is that any help? :)
