I want answers goddammit!!!

[JungleCat03]

1. Is a set only a set when you have a pocket pair that hits the board (66 on A63 flop) or is A3 on a 337 flop a set too?

(I always insist on the latter jsut being trips whilst the former is a set and get peed off when people suggest otherwise, but this may well be one of my irrational pet hates!)

2. Is 67d on a 345d board the nut flush, or is it just the nut str8 flush with Axd being the nut flush?

3. Is cheryl or nadine the more attractive member of girls aloud?

4. Duck in orange sauce or crispy duck with pancakes?

5. Which is the best hand, the hand favoured to win by showdown, or the hand that's best if the dealing was stopped now?

6. Best WSOP champ of recent years.......Moneymaker, Raymer, Hachem or Gold?

7. David Sklanksy is mathematically gifted but quite likely insane. Fair comment?

8. UFC champ vs boxing champ vs finest hand-to-hand fighter plucked from all the world's armies vs finest streetfighter in a 1 on 1 round robin caged enclosure match. Who wins?

9. Most skilful sport?

10. Harrington's books suck/ rock?

One word answers or more involved explanations for one or all of the above would be greatly appreciated. Ta!



EDIT: Forgot the most important one.

1. That's the general convention.

It's so samey and boring writing about poker hands though. If an author wishes to break from convention with a little variety in language, I'm not going to throw vegetables at their head. (So long as their's no ambiguity, elsewise the hacks will taste cabbage. )

2. Good point, perhaps a distinction needs to be drawn between nut flush and nut-flush.

3 & 4. Depends on your mood I guess. neither have too much ginger in them.

5. The hand that's best if the dealing was stopped now. After all, it helps the Omaha experts out when this convention enoucourages people to mis-understand draws.

6. Pass, Moneymaker has the best name though.

7. I like the guy, always got respect for those who choose to teach.

8. The promoter

9. Dunno, but I'd look for one in which a professional could whip an amateur 100% of the time.
Elephant Polo

10. Never read em, but they look good on the shelf.

Never really felt the need to curl up with it, the meat seems to have been discussed ad nauseum on internet forums, or earlier works by Sklansky etc.

11. You don't need an answer, you already know in your heart.

1. Is a set only a set when you have a pocket pair that hits the board (66 on A63 flop) or is A3 on a 337 flop a set too?

I always believed a set was with holding a PP, trips otherwise.

2. Is 67d on a 345d board the nut flush, or is it just the nut str8 flush with Axd being the nut flush?

Agree with Flushy on this (  ) Nut str8 flush, Ax would be nut flush.

3. Is cheryl or nadine the more attractive member of girls aloud?

Who? I only know the scarey Red head 

4. Duck in orange sauce or crispy duck with pancakes?

PANCAKES!!

5. Which is the best hand, the hand favoured to win by showdown, or the hand that's best if the dealing was stopped now?

Has to be when the dealing stops, surely? (as they say, best hand doesn't always win..)


6. Best WSOP champ of recent years.......Moneymaker, Raymer, Hachem or Gold?

Of those 4, I would say Raymer. Gold....... 

7. David Sklanksy is mathematically gifted but quite likely insane. Fair comment?

Likely to be few cards short of a deck, agreed.

8. UFC champ vs boxing champ vs finest hand-to-hand fighter plucked from all the world's armies vs finest streetfighter in a 1 on 1 round robin caged enclosure match. Who wins?

Ohhhhh, tough one. Has to be either the hand-to-hand fighter or Streetfighter.

9. Most skilful sport?

Any that I'm not good at.

10. Harrington's books suck/ rock?

pass....



11. Bourne or bauer?

Looks wise its Bourne as it is also for technical ability. But, Bauer for big world threats from terrorism (as long as they don't last longer than 24 hours)
