Am I wrong???
 
Hey all,

Take a look at this email below (incl. HH) and let me know if I'm wrong.

I know the cryptologic sites allow going as many bets as possible when heads up, and it is a shame that all other sites don't allow this either.

I'm sure you'll discover they cap it at 5 bets. No biggie. Most Vegas rooms go 5.

Robbie Robb 07-19-06 02:28 PM

Thanks for this. I can't remember if I've ever capped 5th street but I KNOW that the earlier streets the betting is capped after the 3rd raise. Still, very odd.

And the customer service rep's reply was anything but helpful...:rolleyes:

At , betting isn't capped Heads Up. You can just keep on raising and raising and raising until someone gets all in.

Robbie Robb 07-19-06 02:52 PM

perhaps that what it is then - when the two were heads up on the river the capping is removed.

Now, how hard would that have been to explain in the original email response to my email???

Boobie Lover 07-19-06 02:53 PM

Very, very hard considering most of the sites customer service don't speak English.

And don't I know it! :thumbsup:

Well, I was able to confirm today that what TP put forth is, indeed, the correct scenario: When two players are heads-up, the cap is removed on any street. I know - I got into it with a guy on the turn with KK. I think we went about 7 bets or so before I blinked and called him. The board was all blanks. He turned over AA. Ah well. I should have known. Fortunately I got most of it right back a few hands later.
