Good effort.

As I've said in the past Limit is a science (more math based esp on the turn/river) and NL is an art form (play the player). ;)

So how much did you lose....

In limit, we don't call those hands rags. We call them the nuts.

Why are you not raising every street?

No offense, but I think that playing like that you are going to get burnt more often than not. What if he did make the Straight? What if he did have top pair?

Don't you mean Kathy?
