Getting into the meat of the book. Hopefully the hand problems will generate some discussion. I definitely don't have the time to post every one, but it would be awesome if people could pick out one they found interesting or tricky and post it. I'm not sure if there are any copyright issues with posting the sample hands, but I'll leave that for an admin to figure out. A few questions to get things started again...

1. What do you think of Dan's defenses against a super-aggressive player? Are there others?

2. Do you ever show your hands when you aren't called? In what situations?

3. What do you think of Dan's use of his watch as a randomizer? Necessary?

4. What do you think of the play in Hand 2-4 (below)? Do you ever use this instead of a standard c-bet?

Single-table satellite - Blinds: $15/$30 - 9 players
Hero is SB with :Kd::Qd: and a stack of $960 (3rd smallest stack at the table) - BB is very aggressive and has a stack of $1,850
Hand is folded to Hero who raises to $115. BB calls $85.
Flop comes
Hero checks, BB bets $240, Hero raises to $845 (all-in).

I leave Thursday for ten days of vacation up in Trainer_Jyms neighborhood. Does anyone want to post some questions for Part 3 next Sunday? Or for Part 4 the following Sunday? I can probably make time if not.
