I keep hearing this over and over again, particularly on 2+2, does anyone know what it means? I'm guessing it means bluffing, but I'm not sure..
BR now: $106900
Playing now: $10/10/20 - $20/40 NL live, $10/20 NL full ring online, $10/20 NL 6-max online, $20/40 FL 6-max online, $100/200 FL live
Goal: $125000 for $25/50 NL live

Not necessarily bluffing, but playing a hand too fast for its worth, Raising with questionable values, etc.
Essentially being too aggressive.
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

Fnord... Like the people at your table, I don't think enough people here understand the game of 5-Card Draw enough to appreciate that hand. Good stuff though.

The only time I ever play 5 card draw is when there is women, alcohol and stripping involved.
