Re: chance vs. skill

How so? Are you saying that I will call a $100 dollar raise on a whim if I have a King showing in Kiss of Death?

Not $100 on a whim... Even you have limits.

Earnie, however...

Ultimately, what I'm saying is that KoD is all about who has 1) the cards and/or 2) the money.

Well it may be a whim, but it's also my instincts putting the remaining player (usually in this case) on a pair. I've been burnt doing that in both situations, but that my friend is what Amarillo Slim would call gambling.

Yeah, that's what I was saying--a lot of times, I can tell you're playing for the blood-stirring action--playing hands blind, calling near-losers at KoD. It's not anything against the way you play--like I said on Wednesday night, your unpredictableness is a huge asset when it comes to the table.
