Thanks LTA. Was at the Toronto game last night. I had 2x on the game since I was there in person. Made $220 Canadian so I am very happy. Thank you.

Tonight : the only site I know of that you can give points is Pinnacle. Everywhere else you can only buy points. Why do people want to give points?

People are not referring to giving points to a particular team, they are referring to giving LTA points for his hard work and free picks he provides us. The SBR points are what everyone is talking about. Donating some of your points to LTA is just a small token of appreciation to offer LTA for all that he does for us.

DOH. That is what I get for not reading the whole thread. My daughter woke me up 6 times last night crying. Need more coffee and time to read the thread.

Thanks.

LTA what would you do if you get check-raised with AT on AJ8 rainbow ?

**dlunc3** · 03-08-12, 01:17 PM

Lol there is no correct answer to that question

depends on the player you are up against, tight, loose, aggressive, passive? Probably wouldn't get involved with an A10 to begin with, but that is just me. Did you ask yourself the question: What can he have that beats me, and you are probably left with the outcome either he has me crushed, he is bluffing, or a small possibility he has an ace with a lower kicker trying to push me off of my hand. Plus, if you are asking then you probably folded anyways.

There would be a correct answer if you knew what your opponent had.

**alamo** · 03-08-12, 01:32 PM

As chief42 says, like most poker questions people pose, the answer is nearly always - "IT DEPENDS!".

That's the game of poker. A bit like the world of sports trading, it can depend on multiple different situations and factors.

**dlunc3** · 03-08-12, 01:35 PM

Way to many variables. Stack size (For each player)? Aggressor preflop? Number of players at the table? Pot size? Type of image you hold? Tournament or cash game? Type of image your opponent holds? Type of game (nl, limit, pl)? Size of his raise? It's so dependant on so many other things... In most cases, again all dependant, a cold call and seeing how your opponent reacts on the turn is not a bad play. But it is really a tough question to ask without stating the.exact detailed situation. AT could be a very strong hand in this spot if you are three way or hu... But completely different if for example its a 10 man table.

**dlunc3** · 03-08-12, 01:42 PM

I know I am. I'm sitting here wondering why they don't sell pistachios with the shell already taken off of them. Some of them are a bitch to crack!

**YouHave2outs** · 03-08-12, 02:34 PM

poker talk in this thread just cracked me up pretty good. min 3b, min 5b, call his jam.

not sure if question was serious, but fold unless you're ready to call off at least one more barrel. if it's some idiot just clicking buttons you can call it off, but call flop/call turn/fold river would be an atrocious line. call flop fold blank turn is pretty bad too.

I have always wondered why!

**bleedtoledo** · 03-08-12, 02:42 PM

They sell em at nuts. Com. I learned that by using something called "Google." You guys are nuts. Enough with the poker talk. What does everyone like tonight?

It was just a fleeting thought, looking for a rise. Thanks for the info though Toledo.

This guy has a real sweetyjones feel to him. Gl buddy. I like ur style

**CheeseHead** · 03-08-12, 06:08 PM

I'd be fine with giving away some SBR points...but they are probably as useful to LTA as they are to me since he's not a pro. Don't understand the point of them if you're not a pro member here.

**groovybrandone** · 03-08-12, 06:11 PM

in case he goes pro!

**BluexBlue** · 03-08-12, 06:12 PM

Line is now 182.5

Go LTA Go!

**bmansell33** · 03-08-12, 06:33 PM

Yikes 182.5 i better get on at halftime or something

They can be used in the SBR store to buy some nice gear if you accumulate enough points.

**ClausensHands** · 03-08-12, 07:09 PM

Game time. Let's get it.

**MrXYZ** · 03-08-12, 07:13 PM

I missed the Bulls play, it's now at 182.5 making it a pass. Good luck everyone.

I have this game set at 181 giving us a full 2 fg's worth of value at 185 which is another reason I am jumping on this game now as I didn't want to risk losing a good number. Based on the foregoing, I am rolling with the under for 1x. Good luck.

You actually have some value left according to LTA. Up to you though what you want to do, just thought I would point that out to you and others that think 182.5 is no good.

**SlickRick1382** · 03-08-12, 07:45 PM

Anyone like Orlando tonight at all?

**SonShine** · 03-08-12, 07:49 PM

Only if you're pro. If you're not a pro, there's not really anything you can buy from what I seen.

**SonShine** · 03-08-12, 07:58 PM

I'm actually referring to the Chi/ Orl Game

**Leo818** · 03-08-12, 07:58 PM
