I pledge to post more pictures of this STEAK
Are Omaha Steaks always a rip-off? Someone gave us a $100 gift card and I’m pretty sure I’m still overpaying even if I use it during their half off sale.

2023 Poker in the Rear
$2/5. Sit with $800 and wait two hands for button to pass. I would usually just jump right in, but I’m going to play super solid tonight and run this $800 up proper. UTG opens to $25. He appears to be tonight’s target as I know all the other players. Middle aged white dude, sitting on ~$1200. MP calls and I join in CO w 8d8s. No other callers. $75 pot. Qc8c4h. UTG bets $35. MP calls. Let’s juice this up a hair. I raise to $100. UTG calls quickly but sadly MP folds. $305 pot. Kh. UTG checks. I didn’t get the feeling he liked that card. Figure I’ll make it a price he can’t resist and bet out $125. He bites and we go to the river. $555 pot. 2h. Would have liked to boat up, but this looks like a good river for me. He checks and I see how he feels about $175. He jams. Tha fuck? The only thing that gets there is a back door flush. KK, QQ or KQ wouldn’t be so passive on that turn. It either has to be a flush or a bluff. Nothing about this guy suggests he’s able to make a bluff here. That said …. FUCK! I can’t really lay this down, right?!? Right!?! I call. He shows AhQh and I’m fucked on the first hand of the night. Off to play super solid on $2/2, I guess…

I’ll have to miss this year. If you’re an MLife guy, Cosmo may be on it soon. That would be an ideal place to stay with easy access to Paris

2023 Poker in the Rear
I believe the prevailing theory is that an excellent pro maxes out at about 20 big blinds per hour as an average over 1000+ hours. So, if you were willing to put in 40 hrs a week playing $2/5 (and had access to games that paid you that well throughout, Ie not nit games at 2pm on Tuesdays), you could expect to pull $200k year. To play $2/5, you want max buyin on the table, which can be anywhere from $500 to $1500. It’s $800 here in Jax. Your bankroll always needs to be more than 20 max buyins due to variance, so you’d want a starting bankroll of $15-30k at least. Probably double that to account for the inevitable swing of you playing bad (not just variance) $500k target would probably require you to very carefully select your games when picking your 40 hours (Ie 2am at a casino w a club) to try to pull it off at $2/5 Of course $5/10 or $10/25 will certainly pay a pro better, but obviously your competitors will be significantly better too. I’d guess these guys play a very whale-dependent schedule and your ability to get into those games is probably slim.

2023 Annual Thread of 3 Putting
Not really, but since most tourney directors are only familiar w GHIN it’s easiest if you use that. Since the formula is open, GHIN competitors are available (like MyScorecard)

I use MyScorecard, but don’t recommend it since their handicap, while accurate, is no longer on GHIN

Exactly. The more forgiving club may not only save you tons of shots by giving you some value from your mishits, but also by getting you to stop trying to pull off shots you have no business attempting.

2023 Poker in the Rear
Brutal runout at Aria $5/10 last night. I’m UTG straddle to $20. CO opens to $60. SB calls and I defend w J9o. $190 pot A T 7 rainbow. Check to CO who makes it $120. Only I call. $430 pot. 8. I check. He makes it $400, I decide to just call leaving $800 behind to let him jam me on river. $1230 pot A. I check. He bets $700. I just called and he flips 88. Pure nasty

This this this. You’re flop game will improve so much if you can FIRST divorce yourself from your actual hand considering your perceived range, THEN consider your actual hand, before making your play. Just get in that habit even when the play you want to make is obvious.
