Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us and as we let our own lights shine we unconsciously give other people permision to do the same

[vital]Myth    United States. Feb 16 2006 10:28. Posts 12159 probably a very image-based play on this hand. 97 geek figured elky for some kind of super aggressive bluff, probably because elky does it a lot. so he felt his tp was good and he didn't need a kicker. extremely gutsy even if you're fairly confident your opponent is bluffing, and probably never a +EV play without being able to see somebody's cards. but this looks like an image-based line from villain. Eh, I can go a few more orbits in life, before taxes blind me out - PoorUser
