*** April Poker Chat Thread ***

[Crumble]

Here's an idea unashamedly stolen from other forums: a thread for single-posts of hands, observations, general chit-chat and stuff that doesn't warrant a thread of its own. Get posting!

Nice call, buttons river bet looks so much like a steal, i'd be confident of being ahead but calling off all your chips makes it a bit risky especially with 2 others to act after.

I don't; last time I tried I found I couldn't beat the games!

I used to play a fair bit, less recently but still a bit. Usually 2 or 3 tabling 10nl. What about yourself?

I just recently played with my friends. We were playing in our old house. Let's just called it a "reunion". I was surprised how good they are in playing poker. They're amazing. Just like to share my happiness! Poker is really a great game to play!
