This parish occupies the southern part of the Island of Bute. It takes its name from a promontory forming its extreme point to the south, called in the Gaelic language Ceann Carbh, which signifies stormy end or stormy head. It is 6 1/2 miles in length and its average breadth is 2 1/2 miles. It is bounded on the north by lakes which separate it from the parish of Rothesay. The land in general rises considerably above the level of the sea. It has six bays.
Nothing is known of the ancient history of the parish. There are remains of a Druidical circle and the ruins of a fort. There are also the ruins of a chapel supposedly founded by St. Blane in the tenth century. The present place of worship for the parish has long been removed to a situation more central for the inhabitants on a rising ground between the bays of Kilchatan and Stravanan. The church was built in 1826. The parisihioners attend the Established church with the exception of one family in connection with the United Associate Synod and one person who is Roman Catholic. The population of the parish in about 1775 was around 950, in 1791 was 727 and in 1831 was 746. The decrease was due to people leaving for work in Rothesay and elsewhere.
The English language is sopken in general by the inhabitants. Cattle are raised. Lime is quarried and shipped from Kilchatan Bay. There are fisheries. There is no market-town in the parish but near-by Rothesay serves as the market-town. The villages are Kerrycroy and Kilchatan Bay. The chief mansion-house is Mountstuart held by the Marquis of Bute. There are three schools, one of the parochial. There is a parish library. The fuel in general use is coal. Fifty years previously most men young and old were employed in herring-fishery, but now most are strongly attached to farming due to improvements in agriculture, which has made rapid advances especially within the last twelve years. A complete system of draining had been introduced, crops are rotated, and there are other improvements.
The above is an extract of the account written in June 1840.

Civil Registration Records
Government or civil registration of births, marriages, and deaths (also called statutory records) began on January 1, 1855 in Scotland. Each parish has a registrar's office and large cities have several. The records are created by the registrars and copies are sent to the General Register Office in Edinburgh. Annual indexes are then created for the records for the whole country.
See the article on Scotland Civil Registration for more information and to access the records.
Probate Records
Kingarth was under the probate jurisdiction of the Commissary Court of The Isles until 1823, and since then has been under the Sheriff's Court of Rothesay. Probate records for 1513- 1901 are indexed online at www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk. You must register on the website but use of the index to probate records, called 'Wills & Testaments,' is free. You may then purchase a copy of the document or, if the document is before 1823, it will be on microfilm at the Family History Library. To find the microfilm numbers, search in the library catalog for the 'Place-names' of Bute and the subject of 'Probate records.' Then click on the link to the records of the Commissariat of The Isles.
The library also has some post-1823 probate records for Bute. Look in the library catalog
for the 'Place-names' of Bute and the subjects of 'Probate Records' and 'Probate Records - Indexes.'

text: Album info: Debut Album* Produced by Mike Hedges* is coming November 18th on RCA Victor Gifted Trio of Ordained Clergymen Won't Give Up Their Day Jobs in Catholic Parishes of Ireland A vocal trio of three Roman Catholic priests from Ireland is on the brink of creating an international musical sensation as The Priests. In an April ceremony on the steps of London's historic Westminster Cathedral* the group - comprised of two brothers* Father Eugene O' Hagan and Father Martin O' Hagan* and Father David Delargy - was signed by Sony BMG (UK). Their Priests' debut album is set for US release on RCA Victor Records on November 18* 2008. The Priests commenced recording May 23 in Dublin and will continue in Belfast and The Vatican in Rome. Their album will include performances in Latin* Spanish* German* Italian* and English of such enduring classics of faith as "Ave Maria*" "Panis Angelicus*" "Abide With Me*" and "O Holy Night." The Priests are working with legendary producer Mike Hedges* well known for his work with U2* The Cure* and - in a foreshadowing of his current assignment - the Manic Street Preachers. The Priests will be accompanied by the Vatican Choir on the recording* arranged and conducted by Pablo Colino the Emeritus Director of Music at St.Peter's Basilica in the Vatican* Rome. A major television special is in the works* as well as an international launch event scheduled for September at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Northern Ireland. The extraordinary combined talents of Father Eugene O' Hagan (48)* his brother* Father Martin O' Hagan (45)* and Father David Delargy (44) first were recognized while they attended Queen's University in Belfast and while training for the priesthood at the Irish College in Rome. During the latter period* the three singers were invited personally by the Papal Master of Ceremonies* Monsignor Magee* to sing for the Pope in the sacred liturgy. Upon their return to Ireland* each of the Priests will continue to tend to the spiritual needs of his parishioners and to the official duties of his church. The Priests' global recording contract exempts each member from undertaking any promotional or recording duties in the event* for instance* of officiating at a wedding or christening of a parishioner. Additionally* the trio has stipulated that a percentage of the proceeds from their record sales will be donated to a charity of their choice.

text: ThinkParametric: Roof Structure (Centre Pompidou Metz)In this course, we're going to model an organic roof structure to a schematic design level and for our reference project we're going to use the Centre Pompidou in Metz from Shigeru Ban architects. We'll start by generating the pattern for the roof structure flat on the construction plane and we'll show you the logic behind this interesting pattern using Grasshopper 3D. Next up, we're going to model the roof shape, using a plugin for Rhino called T-splines. This plugin will allow us to model organic shapes more fast and accurate. When we've modeled the roof shape, we'll use Kangaroo, a physics engine plugin for Grasshopper, to relax the roof shape to a more natural form. When we have the final shape of the roof, we'll jump back to our pattern we generated in the beginning of the course and project that pattern on the roof shape using Grasshopper again. Finally when we have our structural lines projected, we'll use Grasshopper to generate the structural beams and generate the interwoven pattern of the structure.

Halos and Glares
So when I was 18, suddenly during monsoon days I noticed some change in my vision. I began to see halos and glares during the street lights, head lights of vehicles, reflection of sun on surface but not around white lights like those in houses. I visited the best doctors of Ahmedabad and had undergone every possible test but there was no irregularity found. So now I am planning for Lasik as I am a person with near sightedness (L -3.75, R -3.75). Is it safe or does it induce future complications because of my vision condition.
Answers (2)
Like the answers? Chat privately for 24 hours with the doctor of your choice
See LASIK can cause more haloes at night.if you can ignore them then it is the best and safe procedure but if you are not happy with haloes rightnow then I would suggest to go for ICL. that will have less haloes than lasik

Earth Hour
Earth Hour is an annual international event created by the WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature/World Wildlife Fund), held on the last Saturday of March, that asks households and businesses to turn off their non-essential lights and electrical appliances for one hour to raise awareness towards the need to take action on climate change. It was pioneered by WWF Australia and the Sydney Morning Herald in 2007 and achieved worldwide participation in 2008.
Earth Hour will next take place on Saturday, March 28, 2009 at 8:30 pm, local time.
1,858 cities, towns and municipalities in 81 countries have already committed to VOTE EARTH for Earth Hour 2009, as part of the worlds first global election between Earth and global warming.

Cooper Heart Institute, Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, Camden, NJ
Adenosine with low-level treadmill exercise is preferred due to superior images and favorable side-effect profile. Surprisingly, little data exists on the hemodynamic effects of additional exercise on adenosine infusion in largely sedentary patients. First Pass Radionuclide Angiography (FPRNA) can simultaneously evaluate both ventricles, and pulmonary function at rest and at peak stress using well-validated non-invasive hemodynamic parameters. We used adenosine testing with and without exercise to evaluate consecutive patients presenting with dyspnea to determine the hemodynamic effects of the additional exercise.
Adenosine was infused at 140 ug/kg/min for 6 minutes while sitting in a chair or walking on a treadmill (1.0 mph, 0% grade). Rest and stress FPRNA were obtained after 15-45 millicurie of sestamibi. Imaging was performed with Sim-400 multicrystal camera.
60 patients (60% female) with mean age 66.2 years were evaluated. 33 patients (55%) exercised (+EX) and 27 patients did not (-EX). Baseline variables were similar in both groups except age, cardiac index, and pulmonary mean transit time (PMTT). Adenosine infusion clearly changes most of the parameters measured (Table 1Table 1.
Univariate comparison of hemodynamic parameters in patients with and without exercise
Multivariate comparison of hemodynamic parameters in patients with and without exercise
Adenosine infusion alone has significant effects on non-invasive hemodynamic parameters measured by FPRNA. Additional low-level exercise results in improved images and significantly augments many functional parameters increasing the test's utility.
FPRNA is becoming the favored test to assess cardiovascular function in patients with dyspnea. Adenosine infusion and exercise provide additive benefits.

Here is just some of the news that made the news in the Kankakee Valley this week:
The Knox-Center Township Fire Department responded to a fire at Sibo's Grill shortly after 2:00 a.m. Monday. Fire Chief, Kenny Pfost, said that an electrical issue caused the fire.
The Starke County Commissioners are moving forward with repairs on bridge #156 over the Robbins Ditch. They leaned toward the selection of a concrete box beam bridge with an estimated cost of $116,000. A DNR permit will be the only one needed for this project.
The Starke County Council approved $4,230 to be transferred within funds in the Starke Circuit Court Budget for trials and appeals.
The Pulaski County Council will need to move appropriations within the Sheriff's budget to pay for a $23,000 Dodge Charger ordered by the Sheriff to be utilized by the department as a unmarked car. Funds for the car were inadvertently placed in the wrong fund.
The owners of the First Choice Pawn and Loan of Knox objected to a regulation stated in a proposed pawn shop ordinance saying that a demand to hold purchased items for 10 days is unreasonable. The Knox City Council is currently discussing this ordinance.
The Knox Community School Board appointed Dave Miller as the new Knox Middle School Principal. He will take over from Steve Cronk who is retiring after this school year.
The phone numbers for the City of Knox offices were inadvertently left out of the newly published phone book. The Mayor will be publishing those numbers in the paper and those numbers will be available at City Hall and online at cityofknox.net.
The Pulaski County Commissioners approved a rate increase for childhood vaccinations to help gather funds for the Pulaski County Health Department for a full-time nurse.
Gas prices are dropping. Don Good from the Good Oil Company in Winamac said the prices will continue to go down throughout the summer and many stations have gas under $4.00 a gallon for unleaded gasoline.
The Knox Community School Board members approved a lease agreement with Apple, Inc. to provide a one-to-one computer program for students in grades six through twelve.
Residents who attended the Pulaski County Airport expansion project public hearing Thursday night did not participate in a question and answer period, but were directed to put questions in a comment box or tell them to a court stenographer and the answers would be answered in an Environment Assessment report to be released later.
The Starke County Commissioners and Council approved the transfer of $108,514 to the Sheriff's pension fund.
And that is just some of the news that made the news in the Kankakee Valley this week.

The "Oscar curse," real or Hollywood invention?
By Jill Serjeant
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - They turn heads on the red carpet, are besieged by the world's top designers, give tearful acceptance speeches, and go home with a little gold man called Oscar.
But shortly after many actresses win the movie industry's highest honor, their most important relationships fall apart in what has become known in Hollywood as the "Oscar curse."
Sandra Bullock and Kate Winslet, the 2010 and 2009 best actress Oscar winners, this week joined Halle Berry (2002), Julia Roberts (2001), Reese Witherspoon (2006) and Hilary Swank (2005) on that list.
Bullock's husband of five years, motorcycle enthusiast Jesse James, responded to allegations of cheating on Bullock with an apology on Thursday for the grief he had caused. The reasons behind the separation of Winslet from her film director husband Sam Mendes have so far remained private.
Tom O'Neil of the awards website TheEnvelope.com, pondered the link between such breakups and Oscar glory.
"Is it because victory goes to their heads and these women become impossible divas?," O'Neil wrote in a blog. "Or is it because their men are overly macho types who can't tolerate being upstaged?"
In Bullock's case, In Touch Weekly magazine this week quoted a model in California as saying she slept with James while his wife was in Atlanta last year filming what would be her Oscar-winning role in dramatic movie "The Blind Side."
New York divorce lawyer Paul Talbert dismissed the notion of an Oscar curse, saying such breakups were more likely a result of long absences by one partner in a marriage. Continued...

Official Ford Cust serv answer!!
Well, here it is... the official answer from Ford... I got a hold of the research team. Ford demostrates once again it has a very low interest in actually being a car enthusiast company... Of course the Cust. Ser. Rep had no clue what an ST was...
-The only thing she could mail out would be the build sheet - cool, but I already have one (thanks very much). In any case the build sheet is only a list of the options the car came w/ from the fact, it doesn't even specify what the 800 ST packaged consists of.
..."we only keep production figures by body style..." So no specifics! According to the Cust Serv Rep Ford has no specifics on how many SE, SES, or ST's - Who are they trying to kid???
If that was the case it's no wonder Ford is not doing too well, I better sell all of my (1) Ford stocks. They wouldn't know what cars are selling better by model, engine, specs, etc - Give me a break!
I also have a 68 Mustang. I have its numbers broken down by colour, bodystyle, inside trim, and model.
For instance the
standard Mustang w/ the 6 cyl, coupe while ext, black vinyl interior 3 speed manual XXXXXX
standard Mustang w/ the 6 cyl, fastback red ext, while inter XXXXXX
GT Mustang w/ the 8 cyl-289ci, convertible XXXXXX
GT Mustang w/ the 8 cyl-390ci, coupe XXXXXX
Not really a surprise... My bro has the same response years ago when asking about the prod #'s for the S/R
(They must think we are dumb...) -
I wonder if keeping track of the sales figures as opposed to the production, might be an easier avenue.
Does anyone know someone on the Customer Service - I think we need an inside Job!
I know the info is available, it's just not given out
(may be they think I am a spy for GM!)

Where your life is based on one little thing
Everything else fades away from your life
Everything is revolved around one thing
Everything seems so perfect

Smiling from the inside out
Smiling towards every little thing

Your heart feels like it's skipping a beat
Your heart has this unexplainable wonderful feeling

By DAN KARELL
Taking advantage of the relationship between Major League Soccer and USL Pro, Toronto FC have agreed their own partnership with a USL Pro club.
The clubs announced on Wednesday that TFC and the Wilmington Hammerheads have partnered together on a one-year deal. The deal calls for TFC to send a minimum of four players to the Hammerheads and creates a business relationship between the two clubs.
"We are very excited to partner with Wilmington Hammerheads FC and continue to enhance the development of professional footballers in North America," said TFC general manager Tim Bezbatchenko. "The deal represents the first time our club has established a full development trajectory for our Academy players from the U-12 level up through the first team. On the first team it can be a challenge getting younger players sufficient match experience required for their development during the course of a season.
"This partnership with Wilmington will allow our players to earn those valuable match minutes and continue their growth during the season in a professional environment in USL Pro. Today we have filled a developmental gap within our club."
By partnering with the Hammerheads, TFC has opted out of the MLS Reserve Division in 2014.
TFC joins Sporting Kansas City (Orlando City and OKC Energy FC), the New England Revolution (Rochester Rhinos), D.C. United (Richmond Kickers), the Philadelphia Union (Harrisburg City Islanders), the Columbus Crew (Dayton Dutch Lions), and the Houston Dynamo (Pittsburgh Riverhounds) as MLS clubs to form affiliations with a USL Pro club. Sporting KC used their deal to their advantage last year as Dom Dwyer went from a reserve to starting in the MLS Cup final by the end of the 2013 season.
What do you think of this news? Do you feel this is a smart decision for TFC? Think they'll send out Hamilton, Aparicio, and the other Homegrown signings to Wilmington?
Share your thoughts below.
Didn't Columbus announce a partnership with the Dayton Dutch Lions? Will there be a MLS Reserves Divison this year? Sounds to me like more players (roster spots 19-30 who aren't loaned out to affiliates) are getting less playing time.
That is problematic. If the reports are true, LA and FCD will be fielding their own USL Pro teams to mitigate that problem.
Strike that comment on FCD. Apparently they are not fielding a USL Pro team in 2014. LA has been suspiciously quiet about their intentions as well.
Chuck D
If you take the 7 teams mentioned, throw in Columbus (Dayton), and either Portland or San Jose (in some legal battle to affiliate with Sacramento), plus possibly a Galaxy B team, then that would leave a maximum of nine teams left to compete in an MLS reserve division.
Clyde Frog
This should be good for Wilmington. Some of their guys who just aren't getting minutes should be able to gain some valuable experience and very needed playing time with Toronto.
I think you are misunderstanding (or misstating this). Reserves go from the MLS side (Toronto here) and get playing time in the USL (Wilmington). So, theoretically the USL team gets better players and the MLS team gets its younger players playing time to develop. Ideally it is good for both teams.
Clyde Frog
Um he was making a funny.
Clyde Frog
( stops banging head on desk )
Sorry Clyde, didn't realize you were being THAT sarcastic. TFC may have been bad, but they certainly seem to be improving rapidly. It will be interesting to see what additional parts they manage to add to their big signings and how the team as a whole functions.
The Imperative Voice
Why not Edmonton FC? Same country, more sensible affiliation, easier immigration transition for player movement. This way you have a potential visa issue on at least one leg of every potential send down-call up situation. Canadians would be OK to work in Toronto but in theory have to get a visa to work in Wilmington. Americans could work in Wilmington but have to get a visa for Toronto. If your affiliate is in Canada you already have them qualified to work in Canada once they start. But maybe EFC wants to maintain brand independence, thinks they have a MLS future.
But then, why is Houston (Pittsburgh) not with San Antonio, the whole thing is ad hoc and not real rational.
Chuck D
I assume you mean FC Edmonton, and they are in the NASL, which has no partnership with MLS. The affiliate program is for USL-Pro teams only.
The Imperative Voice
I understand your argument in terms of current deals, but 20 in one league and 13 in the other (soon to be minus one then plus two) doesn't allow sufficient one-to-one relationships. If the goal is everyone has an affiliate, there are practical limits to exclusivity. At some point MLS has to either expand USL or push into NASL.
To address the next objection, yes, the leagues also slotted into second and third division roles, but they are practical co-equals, and Cosmos are headed towards being the best funded of the bunch in the nominal bottom rung of the pro system (PDL aside). There is no practical reason to elevate USL over NASL when the talent is scattered among them.
Mr. T's explanation is interesting but basically telescopes down to the USL argument since I'm not suggesting EFC change leagues. I was saying why not EFC and the only sensible reason why not is exclusivity, which should give way to making numbers for one-to-one and locational sensibility.
The Imperative Voice
Worth throwing in that after expansion MLS will be up to, what, 24 teams soon? Unless they have multiple affiliations like NDBL something has to give. I prefer one to one because in theory over time you might get affiliates willing to be more like MLB minors, part of a development chain where there might be more emphasis on preparing players for roles within a standardized system, as opposed to just an alternative place to play.
It may have been an oversight on your part, but the short answer to "Why not FC Edmonton?" is because they're in NASL, and not part of the MLS-USL Pro relationship.
The better question may be: will this strengthened affiliate relationship lead to USL Pro expansion in Canada? If so, I'd expect affiliate agreements to change…but that's a future question.
FC Edmonton is in NASL. Currently USL Pro is not recognized by the Canadian Soccer Association to play in Canada. There was some talk about the PDL team Toronto Lynx moving to Hamilton Ont. and seeking recognition as first Cdn USL Pro club as well as becoming TFC's affiliate, but plan is on hold due to some local stadium issues.
There was some activity short of an affiliation with Pittsburgh last season but didn't work out. The Riverhounds affiliated with Houston.
Have you been to Edmonton? It's way too far away… and cold.
Scott e Dio93
Rumor….Toronto FC afford Forlan more money than the Fire or Burn.
Forlan just signed with a team in the J-League.
surprised no one has partnered with Charleston Battery yet. they certainly have one of the nicest stadiums and longest legacies in USL PRO

|This is a discussion on Beginner mistakes - bluffing within the online poker forums, in the Learning Poker section; Hi all, As a beginner I've noticed that one of my major leaks is that I think people are bluffing more than they actually are
Beginner mistakes - bluffing
Hi all,
As a beginner I've noticed that one of my major leaks is that I think people are bluffing more than they actually are - I look at their play and I think either, "That would be a great place to bluff" or "He can't have his normal range again here..."
I primarily play a weekly STT live "pub game" which is effectively a turbo structure (Blinds up every 15 mins) and very soon I'm hoping to get involved online with some 2NL cash and low stakes STTs (To find which I'm best at and develop my skills/experience)
I received, and read, a lot of advice on CC stating that at the lower stakes bluffing is much less frequent, and you should never try to bluff fish or calling stations as you're going to get called far too often...
My question(s) for you all are:
1) At what stakes have you found that bluffing becomes much akin to what you read in poker books?
2) In my last STT game I probably played for 3 hours (100-150 hands?) and played around 2 pure "I have nothing and am playing my position bluffs" and perhaps 10 semi-bluffs "I have something which may be the second best hand but I think I can get you to fold since I have position on you and you have demonstrated weakness" - does this sound about right? (I appreciate that any play is situation dependent, but am I miles away from sensible here?)
3) A phrase I heard from a professional poker player (On YouTube) was "If you're not getting caught bluffing, you're probably not bluffing enough" - do you agree with this, and at what stakes is kind of sentiment accurate?
4) When you're playing against a known and self-confessed fish and you have history with them that confirms that, when they act is it more correct to think "I should give him a wider range here than most players" or "There's a good chance he's bluffing here..." (Again I appreciate this is person/situational dependent, but any general sentiments are very welcome)
Thanks in advance for any replies, Sparky
1) Bluffing can work at any stake really, you just need to pick to right spots and the right opponents. There are more calling station fish at the lower levels so you will have less opportunities to bluff effectively, but you find all player types at all levels so there are players who can fold even at 2nl. Against thinking players it's important to make your bluff believable, at 25nl I got caught bluffing when someone picked up on subtle bet sizing tells that made him think I didn't have the range I was trying to represent.
2) No idea if that's a lot really, your 2 pure bluffs may have been shoves from late position once the blinds got high and everyone is bluffing like mad then.
3) Yeah that's true it's good to get caught bluffing sometimes otherwise it's hard to get value from your monsters. Not sure what stake this is accurate at but it's only going to be beneficial to you if your opponents are paying attention. At 5nl some of the players are certainly paying attention to what you're doing.
4) There are different kinds of fish, some will try and bluff a lot, most will have wide ranges.
I find that bluffing comes more in the freerolls. The higher the stakes the less bluffing, I think.
re: Poker & Beginner mistakes - bluffing
There are really no hard and fast rules on bluffing.
One thing I notice at the lower stakes (where I play most of the time) is that a lot of players can't be bluffed off their top or 2nd pair, no matter what cards are on the table. So keep that in mind.
If you are never caught bluffing, you aren't doing it enough. Don't be afraid to get caught bluffing - just don't go overboard.
This stupid post limit thing has stopped me from responding but ill touch on it now.
1) Let a player prove he understands the game before you give him credit at any stakes. As it says in Let There Be Range, "Treat him like a donk until he proves he's not a donk."
2) There isn't a set number of bluffs you need to have in order to be a good player. It is more important to pick your bluff spots and the guys you try to bluff correctly.
Semi-bluffing is always great with a straight draw, flush draw and a mid pair with an overcard. Playing those strongly can be profitable if done correctly. Don't semi bluff with mid cards hoping to hit two pair or anything like that.
3) You don't need to get caught bluffing for it to help make your big hands profitable. Just simply show a bluff or two if your hands aren't getting any action. This will have same affect minus the losses from being caught
4) fish definitely have a wider range of hands and the more important thing IMO is knowing not to bluff fish who will call you down with mid pair. Don't try and bluff somebody who refuses to fold. IT becomes very unprofitable. if you have a hand just keep value betting them. They will not make heroic folds so don't try to make moves on them!!
You can't bluff bad players as they aren't paying attention to the board. I like to get caught bluffing early or show a bluff so that I can get called later but again, against a player who isn't paying attention this is an exercise in futility. Also, in order to bluff you need to play the board, like when a possible straight or flush is out there or when the board pairs etc. Hope this helps good luck.
The art of bluffing has a huge potential to help you in certain situations. But, before bluffing, it's necessary to know very well the players you are playing against. Is this one more tight or loose? Is he agressive or passive? There are some questions you should always have been asking yourself.
And... of course, you have to analyze well the board and think about whether the bluff is a good choise or not. Be careful with draws before bluff. Good luck!
bluff - a tricky thing, somewhere he brings a huge amount, somewhere ends in failure, I think there konretno ce depends on the players at the table, and how well you have studied them, the situation in which they take off the cards, which do not. to bluff - you need to watch
something,i would like to add on this topic about bluffing:
Sometimes our bluffs are bigger than they are supposed to be. when we are bluffing there are two types of bluffs:
1-the type where we are bluffing with nothing to try to get our opponent off of nothing and then there is bluff number 2
2-this is the type of bluff that we make although we are pretty sure our opponent has something like top pair maybe, and the board suddenly got scarry for villain and favore's the line we took.
For example if a villain raises with AK of spades and flop comes 36A(with 2 hearts out there) and he makes a continuation bet on the flop, and we think and call. then on the turn he barrels again,and we think about it and we call(even with air,but i dont advise this kind of play to anyone,were assuming we have some draws or outs here). Now if river hits another heart and villain makes a block bet type or even checks. this is a GOOD SPOT TO either shove or click it back in order to steal.
Now where im going with this is that the second situation might require a bigger betting size to get villain off his made hand on a scarry board, where in the first example all you need to do is bet something like 33% of the pot and take it down in most cases.
Where im going with this is that i believe people tend to bluff with bigger bet sizes than required to get the job done IMO and therefor are losing more money than necessary.
re: Poker & Beginner mistakes - bluffing
I see villains using terrible bet sizing for their bluffs at 5nl, they are either too small and fail to push me off my one pair hands or they are way too big and l smell bs. To bluff effectively you have to bet size as you would if you actually had the hand you are trying to represent, like you want max value but not folds.
Members responding in thread, keep in mind that OP is stating they are playing STT (aka Single Table Tournament).
I'd recommend you google search 'The Mistakes LowBuyin SNG players are making the most' by Jennifear. I think you'll be able to find alot of useful stuff there.. ie. "Not believing opponents might have a hand" (< is one of the points in the article).
SNG Strategy is far far different than playing a typical cash game. A BIG mistake ALOT of newer players make is that they don't make the huge adjustments necessary. Maybe try searching out a SNG Strategy guide too.
Another thing to try is >> try watching some SNG's online that are at higher buyins than you'd be playing (ie. if you play $2 sng, try watching the $10 or $20 buyins).
There's a couple of good SNG books available too...
Collin Moshmann's SNG Strategy
Secrets of Sit'n'gos by Phil Shaw
Read one (or both) of these & I guarantee your game will improve IMMENSELY (& you'll be crushing your local live STT on a regular basis).
as for the getting caught bluffing, i always try to get caught at least once when the blinds are low. Example: just yesterday, in a SNG, everyone checked it down to the river and the blinds were only 30..so i threw out a 30 bet and was called by one guy and was called a donk for it. Ok then. i talked some smack back, and several hands later i had a pocket pair and flopped a full house right off the bat. was heads up with this guy. i checked, he bet something ridiculous i called. check check. and then i threw out the min bet as if i was going to try and steal again and he went all in..i called and knocked him out. pay attn to how someone plays. you can't bluff a guy who's going to call even with nothing and pick your spots to do it and make sure you can afford it. sometimes i can go all in when a flush draw is showing and will take the pot, however sometimes a person will have a low flush and call and then i'm left getting busted out. it's all about experimenting. i'm just starting out online and have been playing diff styles in the cheap SNG's figuring out what best works for me.
Dont get me wrong sng's are great but before you get into them its better off having some experience playing cash and get familiar with the basics and which spots are good for what etc.
bluffing is something I do seldom
I maintain a tight image and I get good bluffs in when I do,
cuz they only think I play with a top hand,
positioning is a huge factor not mentioned much yet,
moreso than the player themselfs I think (most half knowledged players know position and know when you've been folding lots)
so at the right time with the right players is a very profitable move,
and lets you play more than just your premie hands
re: Poker & Beginner mistakes - bluffing
I try to avoid bluffing with the exception of continuation bets and I usually limit that unless I'm more than double the stack of the opponent. Just make sure you're not too stubborn to pull out. It might hurt to lose 1/8 your stack but its much better than losing 1/2 or all.
depends of the table, the stack, position, board. Example: If there are calling machines, i mean players that calls with anything, like queen high, the better thing is get out and find a conservative table. But don´t abuse with bluff, and use it wisely or will cost you a lot of money.
In my experience, someone who bluffs often has a tendency to assume other players at the table are bluffing too. Conversely, someone who rarely bluffs tends to discard the possibility their opponents are bluffing.
While this is not necessarily true in all cases, I find it quite useful. When someone is caught bluffing too much (or attempting a really bad bluff), I file it away for a situation where I have a monster on a good board for a bluff. A bluffish bet will get paid off by that player more often than not.
I think that there is a lot of players that bluffing pre-flop, at the flop and the turn. But then check on the river, and if you make a good bet here, they always fold and you can take a pretty huge stack the problem is to find these players, and sometimes they actually hits..
re: Poker & Beginner mistakes - bluffing
Bluffing is totally situational, and greatly depends on your opponent. Try to bluff scare cards, or to put in a more poker sense type of way, if you perceive a card being terrible for your opponents range, it may be a good card to bluff. That being said if he's a station you are better off staying away from even thinking about bluffing.
To bluff or not to bluff, I have lost a lot in the bluff game but it is a necessary evil. You just don't run across enough great hands that actually hit on the flop. I realized I needed to throw in a few bluff after the same thing kept happening to me in tourneys. I would play really tight with only great hands and then I get the the point that blinds have come up so much I NEED a great hand to stay in.
So now my strategy includes more betting and what I have found most successful is play tight till the donks are weeded out then open it up a little bit. The next stage is really open it up when you are getting to the $$ positions. IE 23 people left in a tourney where 20 people cash. People hate taking risks at this point. Just remember to slow it down after money spots are filled.
I can say one - beginners shouldn't bluffing very often (if we talk about Ring Games in tournaments there is a different).
I don't think that you can learn bluff reading books, to bluff you need a experience, you should know when do it and how much to bet.
Online my bluffing gets out of control- I suck and probably should rarely bluff, makes sense that other noobies should do the same, unless you know for sure your opponent is weak on a hand and capable of folding.
Itd be nice to be able to work on bluffing and get better but its such a situational thing
re: Poker & Beginner mistakes - bluffing
IMO, bluffing is very dangerous. You can win pot sometimes, but imagine... you try to bluff with nothing (post big amount of chips) and someone calls/reraises you. You will definitely lose, so bluffing is dangerous.
Beginners shouldn't bluff a lot. I see guys (calling machines) who are calling with everything and after flop they bluff with everything. They are losing too much chips.

Of Staples and Stupidness.
This happened in 2012, June, I think.
So, me and my sister Kylie (false name, taken from my own story The Super Hero Game) were studying on my parents' bed. They have direct air conditioned cooling onto their bed, and we wanted a cool place to study in.
Whoever has siblings probably understands that obviously, at one time or the other, you're going to end up fighting with them. So, we were studying, quizzing eachother, and yes, goofing off (sometimes you need a break from stupid exam studying) when somehow or the other, we got into a fight.
I don't know if it happens with YOU guys, but for me and Kylie, whoever has the last hit is the clear winner of the fight. I know, I know, an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, but it's fair if we hit eachother equal amounts of time, isn't it?
(You probably wouldn't think so.)
So, she began bugging me, and, in annoyance, I slapped the papers I was holding onto the only part of her I could reach - her feet, because we were lying parallel to eachother.
She gave a slight shreik, and then, to my own astonishment, she began crying.
I stared at her incredulously. How on Earth does a hit from paper make her cry?
She sat up and gripped her foot, tears slipping from her eyes. Then I noticed the staple stuck in her toe.
Obviously, my reaction was, "Oh, crap."
Then, "Are you okay?"
She shook her head, touching the staple seemingly stuck on her, and gave a short gasp of pain, the tears still streaming down her cheeks. I touched it aswell, and gave it a quick jar.
She cried out. I immediately drew back, unsure of what to do.
See, those papers were stapled together, and when I hit her with the papers, the staple managed to get underneath her toenail, and lodge itself there.
Just my luck.
I volunteered to go call our parents, and she agreed tearfully. I went to my mother and called her to the room. She came, and immediately saw the problem.
"It's not getting out!" Kylie shreiked hysterically, with fear and pain. Personally, I thought she was overreacting, but I was the one who caused her this, so I shut up.
"What happened?" my mom asked me, trying to comfort hysterical Kylie.
I quickly related the events, managing to put slightly less blame on myself. Kylie and I always did that; whenever our parents got involved in our fights, we'd get in a HUGE amount of trouble, and so we always saved ourselves from much blame. It worked pretty well.
"Ok, ok," my mother said soothingly to Kylie. "Let's call your father." I called him to the room, and when he saw what happened, he immediately began giving us a lecture. See what I mean? Honestly pointless, because we knew fighting was wrong, but when you're angry, you do a lot of irrational things.
He made Kylie, who was still whimpering, lie down. My mother took her hand as he reported that it seemed to have gone under her nail, inside her skin, where he couldn't really seem to get it out from. This was obviously not any comfort to Kylie, who began crying harder. I really don't know why this got her so upset.
"Ok, this might hurt a bit," my dad warned, and began fiddling with the small staple. Kylie at once began crying out in pain, begging him to stop.
"Sh, sh," my mother said comfortingly. "He just has to get it out."
"I know, but it HURTS!" she wept. "Baba (that's our pet name for our father) don't move it again!"
It was then I noticed the staple was in his hand.
"Kylie, I got it out - " my dad began. But Kylie was still hysterical.
"No, no, don't touch it again! It hurts!"
"Look," he said, pressing her toe lightly. Kylie shreiked.
"See, it hurts! Stop it!"
"Kylie, it's been out for twenty seconds now!" I called over the noise. My father agreed loudly. With a sniff, she looked down at her feet - which had no staple in it.
"It hurt alot," she sniffled.
It turned out, as my father explained, that the fact that Kylie prefers to keep all her nails long, despite Baba hating it, saved it from actually cutting through her skin. It was just touching a bit of sensitve skin under her toe.
I mused aloud about how strange it was that that pain reduced Kylie to tears and screams.
Kylie, who I think was embarassed, snapped at me.
What a big deal made out of nothing but a closed staple caught on an overgrown toenail.
What a big deal made out of nothing.

Hello there..... In a normal menstrual cycle, a balance between the hormones estrogen and progesterone regulates the buildup of the lining of the uterus (endometrium), which is shed during menstruation. If a hormone imbalance occurs, mentrual irregularities occurs..... Consult Gynecologist for further evaluation and treatment.....

Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
On 10/13/10 my elderly mother (who IS on the national do not call list) received an unsolicited phone call from Bryan Arana at Worldwise Vacations, stating she had entered a contest and won a vacation. Whe she said she had not entered a contest, he said, "You must have forgot." He then attempted to sell her a vacation package. When she said she would have to consult with her daughter, he started asking questions regarding who had control of her finances and whether or not her daughter had power of attorney. He tried to obtain her mailing address which she did not give. I have filed complaints both at the Southern Nevada Better Business Bureau (company is based in Las Vegas) and with the FTC (for being in violation of calling people who are on a do not call list.) I called the company and the person who answered the phone, Jamie, took my complaint, and when I asked to speak to the manager, she said "I'm the manager." She said she would speak to Mr Arana and she also said that she would put my mother's name and number on their do not call list. However, she never ASKED for my mom's name and number, nor did I give it to her.
This company uses unscrupulous telemarketing practices, in violation of the FTC National Do Not Call list, and I have nothing but the lowest regard for anyone who would try to exploit an elderly person and attempt to get personal information regarding their finances.

Kallis flew home to Cape Town after the NatWest Series final on 12 July to be with his father, Henry, who was diagnosed with a lung tumour in March. Henry died on July 23 at the age of 65, the day before the start of the first Test.
Although Kallis, 27, found some of his best form over the summer - he hit back-to-back centuries during the NatWest Series - he admitted he had found it difficult to focus on cricket.
He said: "It was a bit iffy before I left, but there was the motivation of doing well for the old man and keeping him going. He didn't suffer much, which is good. He went in the way everyone would have wanted - full of dignity."
Kallis, who is the only player currently in the top 10 of both the batting and bowling world rankings, said he was unable to look to the future until his father's funeral.
He added: "That when I had to sit down and say: "You're going to have to move on and be positive from here on in".
"I'm sad he has gone but now I've got to do my own thing."
Although he was originally hoping to return for the Lords Test, Kallis admitted that he was not ready. He is now back with the squad and is likely to be included for the Headingley Test next week.
"It probably is a little bit easier being back here, keeping myself busy and doing the things I really enjoy,' Kallis said. "One of my strengths has been to put to one side whatever is going on off the field and concentrate on the cricket. So, from that point of view, I will be 100 per cent focused."Reuse content
