solve this in under 3 mins ure a awsome fountain of poker knowledge whos very shaddow has other players twitching in there seats lest you sit at there table.
solve this in over 3 mins youve got too much time to waste.

1/heads up hold em poker hand last card to be dealt on the flop you are behind to your opponients hand,you can dictate what both hands are and what the four cards on the flop are ......what is the maximum number of outs your hand can have to win when the last card is dealt....
examples req not just number

2/if you are the only one in a room ,is it still lovemaking.
examples not required.
                                                                                                       3/whats the best way to commit suacide .

jump of a very tall building if you change your mind halfway down ,youve got the other half to change it back again.

jq dd vs 22 on a 9t9dd 5

265?
3xj
3xq
98 diamonds - either he has Two Diamonds, or Two Diamonds gives him FH
3 tens
2x5
3 8
3 kings

I think...

Anyway, this gives me a good opportunity for a rant. In a cash hand at DTD recently, I called £7 into a £30 pot on a flush draw with 1 card to come. I got accused of being a fish when I made it. I answered that I'd worked out that I was getting odds to call (9/46 > 7/37, even with no implied odds). Then I got accused of making that up, and there was no way I'd worked out the odds. Is it really so rare to actually consider pot odds when making this call? I got absolutely berated for saying it. I was quite surprised.

I'm not playing out of principle.  Tom keeps putting up these really interesting puzzles but then never gives us the answer.  I'm still waiting to see if a hill fort is the highest structure you can build with 15 poker chips.  I don't like to be kept hanging goddamit.

8xd - Two Diamonds is not an out. But then I've already said that, so I don't expect anyone to listen to me the second time either  Roll Eyes
