    one of the best clubs around imo. some decent low buyins aswell. There is a monthly 50 FO which gets savage numbers. In city centre though. If you win you could get a taxi home!

    I've seen posters around Carlow town about a Texas Hold 'Em tournament in Eire Og football club on the 3rd April- who is running this? I think it was 20 buy in and 10 rebuy for 1000 prize, anyone heading down? sounds pretty good!

    Doesn't look like it here, looks like he went all in on the Flop with 2 diamonds showing, solid play given his hand

    Too risky to go all in with just four diamonds. He didn't have anything to show for when going all in

    Not true he is getting better than 3/1 on his money if called and the odds are in his favour so therefore it's a positive equity play. Standard really

    No its not.

    He's a 38% chance of hitting a winning hand on the flop, he's getting 3/1 on his investment .. It's a positive equity play.

    Looking at the flop in isolation is pointless. Considering his whole line, putting over half your stack in PF with A8s is not a positive equity play. The +EV flop is set up by the awful preflop line.

    If he put 75% in pre, he'd get over 7/1 for the flushdraw. Playing it that way doesnt make the equity better, it's actually a lot worse.

    I'm talking about his play on the flop in isolation as all we have here is one hand in isolation, his preflop play is questionable at best but nothing wrong with his shove on the flop, as I have said previously it's a positive equity play.

    That doesn't explain why you'd ignore preflop. The hand isn't profitable, simple as.
    The fact the flop is an easy shove after putting it half his stack, doesn't justify the hand.

    Never said it did. I simply stated that his shove on the flop is the correct play if you read back through the posts.
