why i don't read blogs anymore

(ps, i live to crack AAxx, beeytches)

At 1:45 PM, Bill said...: He basically bitches that he can't get AA to hold up and that his lows never hit. Isn't there a low in only like 40% of hands?

So his "preflop nuts" only qualify for half the pot 40% of the time. Sounds like variance to me.

I don't know a thing about O8, but I know that he sucks.

I think your odds are a little low, Chilly (too lazy to look them up now), but A2xx is a better multi-way hand - you don't really want to be HU with it. In O8 there are good odds that someone else has an A2, not to mention they could have A2xx with protection for the low etc. etc. not to mention a better chance at the high hand. Playing A2xx like that is a recipe for losing the entire pot, or getting quartered.
