Mine was just a one-word fix.  I agree that David's fix sounds better.

Regarding mucking aces on the first round, how can that possibly be 
right?  If you play lots of those tournaments and get "called by a ton of 
people" every time you have aces and jam on the first round, although you 
may lose more than half of those confrontations, you are a huge overlay and 
will profit hugely overall.
